taka, tell him about when you were drifting Trans Am out at 28th. Don't give me that crap, "forget the camaros and firebirds"

Not really dude. The modifications you put into it made it go way better in a straight line, but did you notice on your window sticker the thickness of the sway bars that came on it? ... That car actually is a great handling car. You've just never driven anything that was a bad handling car.

No, I've heard such reasoning before jonas.

I've talked to many import owners about what it is they love about their cars because I am curious as to why people like what they do. Not because I don't like imports or what not. I love all cars. Well, with some exceptions of where the engineers and designers just had no idea wtf they were doing

Nope, we're not hating on your cars or mentioning how big our engines are, hell, mine is only 302ci's, and that's small in my world.

Only funk is saying our cars suck and his car is superior if you neglected to notice, we're a little above all that nonsense.

Back to the topic? Domestic drifters. I'm pretty sure a c5 vette could absolutely kick ass around a course sideways.

Since this has gotten completely off topic due to useless bickering. I'd have to agree.

wtf. useless shit. and no1 uses domestics for the plain reason they suck. their designers never had any conception of rigidity and structural support. the amount of money it takes for these piles to do anything worthy is uncomparable to that of nissan, and dont brag about how ur car can kick my cars ass. im happy it can. this isnt about speed or power.
...people like this are why I want to build a domestic drifter
