Default FWD Drifting taken to new heights

They said it couldn't be done. FWD Drifting. Well, not only have they been proven wrong, but, Stinky "C" has done it in reverse. The Team SLAM club car is a 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer OZ Racing Rally Edition, or, more accurately, it was. Driver and Team SLAM Owner, "XIII" says of The Stinkmobile, "We founded the California Statewide Lancer Association Meet (CAL SLAM) in Fresno one year ago. I burnt the clutch and my peeps said, 'Yo, that's one stinky clutch!', and the name just stuck." Well, it's about the only thing that does stick on this FWD drift monster.

Powered by a Garrett T-25 turbocharger with a Spearco intercooler, Vortec FMU and GReddy Type-S BOV, Stinky "C" slid sideways all over Thunderhill Raceway on Saturday Jan. 17th at the Northern California Drift Association (NCDA) Inaugural event. In fact, driving Stinky "C", XIII drifted in reverse in front of hundreds of spectators on the skidpad, and was featured in a 360 video to be released later this year. "My whip was dialed in by Road///Race Motorsports (SoCaL), Motorsports Techniques and Team SLAM OG "Cisco" of Hayward, so FWD Reverse Drifting was tits.", added XII, "Just put 'er in reverse, floor it to 60, yank up hard on the e-brake and spin the steering wheel in any direction." Although Stinky burnt another clutch, XIII will be doing a 4G63 conversion from an Evo VII front clip L8r this month. Team SLAM's next meet is on February 7th in Modesto. More information can be found on TS Forums at http://teamslam.com - the original BASR. Thanks to RoadRage_240, MSSTRIC, MIT, Paul from Auto-Reverse and -[SpHeRe]- for support, while pimpin' Stinky to SRO. Props to NCDA's Donald Ahn and Todd "Doctor" Ho for a most excellent drift adventure.
THATS A FUCKING 180 WHERE IS THE DRIFTING!!!!!
