Much, much practice is needed by everyone involved. The only one who didn't spin out on every single corner was the black 86. Hope you guys had fun though.

Sorry, I can't watch any more of those. I watched about 25 seconds of the FD ... "drifting" and I couldn't stop laughing. I have those saved for when ever I have a bad day though, make me feel better.

I still dont understand drifting at all. Is there a set of rules or regulations of somesort, or is it just spinning donuts and making noise?

Oh, so the first time you ever drifted, you were a pro, and never spun out once right? what a bunch of ******* clowns on here, unbelievable.

Here is a vid of him drifting yesterday. I think he has improved quite a bit since his first try.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=KroLmafYah4

So tweakgames. go **** off, and act cool in some other thread.



*Edit* You watched a vid i made, from my first time ever autocrossing, and asked me about my camera mount. How come you didnt give me grief about how bad i sucked then?

I was impressed with the FD drifting after about 2 minutes of footage.

You answered your own question there. I wanted to know about your camera mount. If I was to start off saying how bad you were, there was a good chance I wasn't going to get the information I wanted about your camera mount.

Sorry, I don't need to act cool, it just comes naturally.

PLEASE don't watch those videos and think that is drifting. It is not, BY FAR. Yes, there are rules such in real drifting, but this kid is just playing around on a track. I don't think anybody would want to go tandem with him, I know I wouldn't.

*Edit* Dugwill, I started to watch your "latest" track play day, but I was laughing so hard 1/2 way through I missed the last half. Have you ever thought about getting sponsored by dunkin'? You're really good at making donuts! A little advise from one driter to another, (SHHHHHH ITS A SECRET!) when you're done with the corner and you're about to spin out ..... let OFF the gas. haha

But in all seriousness.... if this is one of the first times you have done this, I don't see the need to post these videos until you can do it... just kinda makes you look bad... It's kinda like posting up a English Test that you got a 35% score on... O.o Practice practice practice.

I spun out 2 times in 5 minutes, my first time drifting.... Nobody is tandem drifting, their first day out there, you clown.

A flaming thread ***** with a mullet claiming that coolness comes naturally.

Nothing better to do than act as though you are the greatest drifter? So great in fact, that you can diss all the people in my vids, while claiming your better than them all. Where is your proof? where are your drift videos with your long womanly hair flowing out the window? And that dunkin donuts joke was so terrible i feel sorry for you.

My avitar is a picture of aaron cake, an amazing rx-7 owner who is a mod on the forum. He has done TONS of stuff to his 7. But I'm glad you have nothing better to do but diss on all the people with mullets.

Here is a video of my mom doing donuts in my 7. It took her 3 tries to get the whole donuts thing, so I guess you're better than her.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=Bzb42uECUAY

It's from 8 months ago, back when I was stock, with NA-T, but you get the point. (drifting season hasn't started here yet, still toooooo cold) But, anyways I was just saying, it was pretty stupid to post failure videos on the forum, but whatever gets ya going I guess. All that maters is that you had fun, getting dizzy, and going off dirt jumps!

Have a great day!

BTW: junito1 - if that is you, in that video in your sig, your car sounds awesome, and nice job drifting! That is a super small track... very nice control.

Hey, look. I'm not saying i know how to drift..but I am a little bit offended, that you had to diss me and all of my friends, who are trying to learn how to drift. at least were tryyyyyyying! lol

And I can post whatever i want on youtube, just like you can.

And i have to tell you, it's pretty rad that you got your mom to try driving a car like that....she had probably never experienced anything like that in her life!

well, not to be a dick. but then why post videos of you guys learning, it is like being on the porch watching people play with explosives for the first time... of course they will do something crazy and everyone will laugh.

hopefully the next video will have that FD with decent suspension, a complete aero kit and a braced differential. there was too much body roll on that FD

My advice would be to work on your gas technique. Don't be so hard on it, and let off when you intend to get your traction back. Upshift, if you drift via downshifting.
