It still looks good! I'd love for my car to have the 'track' look.

First off, your car is ******* gorgeous. I remember looking at a bunch of FC pics somewhere, and the one with your car in front of a green dumpster popped up, and my jaw dropped.

Sick drifts too, keep it up and keep representin!

Hmm, I work on cars/bikes that see nothing but track time, and they're plenty pretty. Takes a lot of time and $$ though.

Regardless, it looks like you have a blast with the car, and in the long run, that's what matters.

OK - count me among the haters. Typical of someone who confuses posing with racing to refer to anyone who disagrees with them as a "hater". I don't have a thing against "drifting" as it looks like as good a way to have fun with a car as many I have seen, but I choose not to participate or even care about it much. It's the crappy, counter-culture, "I hope this pisses you off", whining for attention attitude that I can't stand.

Oh, and I don't post all that much any more here because 1) I'm too busy out racing (and working) on the car, and 2) I get tired of the immature drifter dweebs constantly whining about how little attention and respect that they get. If you are ever in a store where some little kid is saying "mommy look, mommy look, mommy look, mommy look at me, mommy look, mommy look, mommy look at me, mommy look, mommy look .... " then you will have some idea how you sound to most of the actual RACERS who are here trying to collect technical information.

Good luck with your drifting, I don't wish you any ill will, but perhaps it would be nice to have a DRIFT section so you can talk to other like minded attention starved trend followers without having to deal with us "haters".

I like the car, just not the event...

Any reasons why your not doing wheel to wheel racing? You've got the cage, the wheels, the horsepower...why not set it up for a NASA race program?.


Or even something like B or A Street Prepared Auto-X?
