hello?...anyone??...is this thing on???...wow..what a tough crowd tonight.

m0rex · 07-02-2005, 08:41 PM

Get used to it. Lol j/k i havent drifted with anyone else for about 1/2 a year now.

slappythehomelessclown · 07-02-2005, 08:46 PM

how do u do it???

man, it get's on my nerves drifting by myself man.

how am i ever gonna get better if i'm never around people that are better than me??(i can't afford drift competition's)

well, i'm heading out right now to the "BIG LOT'S" parking lot....hope no cop's show.

m0rex · 07-02-2005, 10:08 PM

Well sometimes my fwd buddys say they can drift better than me and go out with me pulling ebrakes braking their axles and looking like asses. Then i have 3 friends with z32s and they say they can drift better than me and just end up holding a drift for one second and doing cookies.

Its fun drifting with people that are good though. Right now i just go faster find twisties and have fun driving alone. The guy who use to drift with and go driving around lives 1 hr away so... it kinda sucks.

slappythehomelessclown · 07-02-2005, 10:43 PM

yea, i know what you mean, i just got back froma small practice session, it was fun, my friend nate with his GT Four 88 Celica took some video of me, but, i want it like it was when all of the "club" was drifting at the same time in that HUGE industrial park..man that was fun...perfect place to "link" drift's togther wich i'm getting really good at...

drift freaq · 07-02-2005, 10:53 PM

hahahahahaha. I can't believe you posted something like this. If you really are into drifting IMHO you can do it by yourself all day long. I go for touge runs by myself , I have drifted by myself. The sport of driving is enough to do by yourself for the shear exhileration of it. Seriously if it gets on your nerves to do it by yourself you got some issues . Or maybe I have issues cause I do not need people to do it with . hahhahahhahhahaha

slappythehomelessclown · 07-02-2005, 10:59 PM

well, i think it's more fun when you have some of your good buddie's with you and you are all practicing tandem's etc....more people = more fun to me.

but, we're all different.

plus, i wanna be around people who are more experienced then me so i can learn more, cause even the best are still learning.

m0rex · 07-02-2005, 11:54 PM

You can do it by yourself. But usally with people you kinda learn more and if you break something they can help you out with parts, labor, tools i dont know. More people is better but when theres a lot then it gets loud. So its good to have some buddies to watch out for the cops or tell you from looking at your car that something might be wrong with it. Touge runs are great though when your friends civic cant catch up to you yet they are fun just by yourself. Thats why i love this sport and driving you dont really need to rely on other people its just you the car and the road.

why do you need other people around you that are better than you?

gives you a goal, to reach a certain level. also people who are better may have some helpful tips.

slappythehomelessclown · 07-03-2005, 12:07 AM

so i can watch them, learn from them etc.

i'm only using 2 or 3 "basic" technique's.

some of the more technical one's a hard for me to understand.

p11driver · 07-03-2005, 12:11 AM

I suppose thats true. I personally enjoy practicing alone so i can drive the most time possible

zero.counter · 07-03-2005, 12:51 AM

wait til, "the movie", comes out....

slappythehomelessclown · 07-03-2005, 11:50 AM

..your prolly right, after the "movie" come's out, everybody and thier brother is gonna sell thier honda and buy a 240, .....er..um...wait, that already happend....lol

Turbo NV · 07-03-2005, 01:19 PM

Well I am in NOrthern Va, and I think Elkton is near Balt right? Anyway I would be down for meetin up to do some drifting, however there is absolutly no place to do it near me without 5-0 trouble. I am new to the RWDrift as I came from the AWD world and drifting in a AWD requires a ton of speed and power as well as they were short for the most part but still fun non the less so it is a bit different in a s13 hatch. Let me know...

Smartass...Give someone a RWD car with power and they think they are a drifter...Why is it that you cannot post anything on a forum anymore without a wiseass comment or flaming...You dont know me or what I drove or how I drive. I dont need to explain myself or anything else...How old are you BTW?

I know where Newark is, and its easier to get there by train for me if you get my "drift". Sorry, looks like your still going solo.

I do understand what you mean by picking up pointers and things you cant read or see on a video when out with others who can do it.

Good luck, hope you find someone to drive with.

muahaha

if you're sick of drifting by yourself then find new friends.

hunterljc · 09-08-2005, 11:08 PM

I don't have any friends that are into cars like I am.

Except for my brother but I never see him.

tempuraDRIFT · 09-09-2005, 12:39 AM

by yourself is the shet! atleast when you do it illegal ... less noise less people that get in trouble and its a plus when you look for a place where to slide around youre not being followed by a bunch of people with fart cans shooting fire and shet lol (my friends have fart cans dont get bent)

cotbu · 09-09-2005, 05:18 PM

Clearly Fronting with Initial D movie still fresh on his mind... I know for a fact that street racers are abundant in this erea and my point is many are now more focused on drifting than the illegal stoplight, R13 drag blah blah me included. SO if your live In a 100 mile radious of Newark Shopping Center call I wanna see what you have Car, Skill, etc. Trying to put to gether an all around team SHOW & GO 302-898-2366 \ 302-898-2326 Snoop
