imma go just not sure if imma spectate or not i wanna try it but i have never really gone to a drift day..so i dont knwo if the track is to hard for me or not...i mean i know car control very well cuz when i go to track days to willow springs i usally slide around the turns but only becuz i turn in to the turn fast and rotate the rear out..but who knows about drifting a whole track im probably not good enough to initiate several drifts through out the track

its pretty tough. You go in top of second and hold the ebrake and pop the clutch while in 2nd. If your clutch and lsd is strong, you should be able to wheel spin and connect the coarse np. Powersteering is also crucial.. You need as much steering input as you can for such a small coarse, especially the transition in the s..

How long does it take you guys to do a clutch swap? I hate the smell of tranny gear oil.. smeells like 10x dead skunks... sigh.. I really want to drift this thursday though.. clutch swap....

I got my new clutch in the mail today! I will install it tmrw.. Hopefuly car will be ready 4 thursday night!

yeah, its going to be pretty tough with the manual rack. I practiced drifting for 2 years with a manual rack and a s5 t2 vlsd, and it was tough. after I swapped in a ps rack and pump it made night and day shine with glory... lol Damn but who care just come out and drive and have fun!!!

yEAH it is hella cold.. My fc has no heater.. I hate it when the windows fog up.. Im guna wear like 3 sweaters...and like 4 boxerss
