I am a newb. I just think that people learning to drift will benefit from sharing. The corolla may be just another car to a pro like you. But in the beginning cars seem very different from each other. If a 240 driver says something like "just clutch kick at the start" to a beginng corolla driver the car won't give the same result for the same command.

For me personally driving a 240 seems way easier to do anything involving the gas pedal. And I try to drive it differently than a corolla. Maybe I'm not experienced enough to drive it the same way.

Anyhow, one day I will be good enough to just jump into anything and drift it. But until then...

 

you have no idea what you are talking about. end of story.


corollas have to be driven completely different from any other car i've ever drifted.

Jonas, you spelled your neighbor's name wrong, that is a terrible thing.

 

lmao i know, ill mow his lawn for him

 

so now that's up... who is who and what are you driving...

ahem where is the hot tea "leader" as you will call it...

 

19 on the list.
stocker 240 with 3 good coilovers, hoping to have my new clutch in next week so i can break it in... oh and electric fans because it is probably going to be friggen hot that day.

 

i'm #20
gold 300zx with stuffs
and yes the heat will blow major ass

ps: Matt is totally right, "jumping into cars" and being pro is like the opposite of reality. I have 2 300's who are identical from the factory and they are 2 completely diff. cars to drift or even drive for that matter. I've driven 240's that slide like no other stock with shit broken susp. and i've driven what seems like an identical car with stock susp. but dosent do as well. It boils down to you have to KNOW the car before you can make it do what you want. granted some cars make drivers look better than they are but they must still KNOW the car before that can happen.

pss: wow my ps is too long

psss: did you guys know there is a little round piece on the back of an auto. crankshaft that isnt on a manual that will CRUSH 2 pilot bushings in a row that you try to put in before you realize that piece shouldnt be there after it pwns you for hours. well i do now. and its a mother to get (cut/chisel/bash) out. ok

 

yes, you're right... you press the gas to go, and brake to stop, its a totally different thing, what was i thinking.

how are you going to comment about someone you've never seen drive before and say they have no idea what they are talking about? especially you of all people... mr "oh man look at all these guys, they suck they are spinning out on every turn" at hialeah speedway, and then you go out and spin out on the straight part of the track, not even on the turn. so do a little more research before you try sonning someone on the internet. you must have paid enjuku a lot to drive that car... you should quit drifting and work for a bakery since all you're good at doing is doughnuts. now go ahead and close this thread baby.

 

on a lighter note, i'm pre-reggining tomorrow so i'll see you guys out there

 

hey alchemist you and me let's go


tandem battle demo at lunch time. i'll bring it.
