Just get yourself 4 of these!
Lol.

Damn, I chose a great time to be stationed in Hawaii... No track, only event is Auto-X at Aloha, and they don't have even have practice days...

This also seems like another one of those cases where the rich people get to spend state/federal money on something useless.

Wow. Hmm, the one benefit is it helps to a little bit more traction to cars that aren't drifting in the rain. It sucks that they can't just use that money to open up a track or something. Kind of reminds me of how some places added some anti skateboarding stuff.

I can relate to this. We either a) find a new spot or b) if the spot is irresistible we just remove the skate blockers or bondo some cracks/bumps/holes and just put some wax on the ledge and skate it again. Unless you completely destroy/remove it we'll keep comming back and skating it because we love what we do.

So, in this case just use some shitty bald tires and wax the ground and spray some pam on them wheels.

I bet if you go earlier in the day and drop some dirt. let cars run it over and spread it around all day it would be good to go.

The solution to street drifting is a public track that is opened at all times, just swipe your credit or debit card and you're in, aww its nice to dream. Lol...This sucks..

Is drifting even enough of a public nuisance?

I may live in Ohio, but I've traveled extensively throughout at least 2/3 of the states in the US, and I've never actually seen street drifting in real life.

It is in low-lying mountainous areas.

I posted the link earlier, but here is a video of how you go about getting around the patched area. Around 1min in.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUEXAes2jgI

Watching this brings back childhood memories haha, this industrial area is near kinser and I used to actually hear this at night. It's what I went to sleep to, and a big reason why drifting interests me so much. /endcoolstory

we have a couple of roads here in ireland with that shite on the corners.

they didnt put them there because of drifters but of bad drivers crashing there.

alls good in the very few spots we can drift in though.

looks like hawaii drifters are going to be doing some balls out sideways from now on
