Yeah, brotha'. It's been a LONG time. When are you going to get another RWD and come drifting with us?

We want to draw as little attention to that as possible, because it is fun and want it to continue.

true some manager there could own an RX and be on this web site. Then he would come out and make you leave. Only to get his and do the same thing

Orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Shorline PD could be monitoring this site to catch the very vandals putting down those ugly rubber marks on there black top.

I just thought it was funny that i recognized it.

No matter how big the lot may be and how few people are around, it only takes one dips**t to spoil any amount of fun. Especially if your stupid enough to hang around for half an hour after burning of all your tread like a jackass...

if youre worried about cops it doesn't really matter around here if you drift on a street or in a parking lot, if a cop catches you in the middle of a huge sideways slide, you will get a reckless driving tickett regaurdless of weather its on a street or in a out of the way parking lot that is empty. Parking lots attract a lot of attention imo.

try this sometime

What I like to do is go out late night on some good windy public roads with some friends and have everyone have a walkie talkie* in the car then have a lead car go out in front (not drifting) and tell the people behind if its clear or not to take the next corner in a full out powerslide, this is prolly the safest (regaurding cops and other drivers) way I have found to go drifting so far.
