Default Drifting!

Just been to Oulton Park on a drift day with our BMW 325i, which cost the grand total of £150 and it was sooooo fun haha

Ill get some vids/pics up when my dads back with the camera.


Anybody been to one of these? take your own car drifting, or bin in another car....... cause you couldnt do it in a saxo

IMO drifting always looks and feels better in dry conditions, feels like it has got alot more grip and power pulling out of the turns.. plus the smell of burning rubber.. mmmm.. I think I just cummed.

But if you let off accerleration a tiny bit too much to try and correct anything, or if you bottle it, you risk the car snaking off like mad and that is scary shit...
