I think taylor is right.... the driver really plays a gigantic part in things.. A lot of people stagger their tire grip tho, like Azenis's in front and HTR 200's in the back....

So far with HTR 200's all around, i can find oversteer really easy if i set the car up into the corner right, however i havent drifted at all in the past 4 months ( just some feint motion drifts, but no drifts linked tougether yet ) and i also havent driven a car with staggered tire grips.

I just would like to drift with the same 4 tires all around, that way my street car can be my drift car..

isten i drifted my 240 stock hieght in the dry and did just fine, so if you all want some pointers just let me know where and when and we'll have some fun! there are many techneques to drift, it all depends on your car and your skills. i'd have to say that me taylor and rob are the best 3 in tampa so if no antz is to go further we need more people. but you have to be hard core and not some wanna be's. if you haven't seen my car the front end is messed up. The true sign of a drifters car! No drifter drives a cream puff,

ohh i also work for tire kingdom so i can get drift tires cheap. i have extray 15 inch dori tires that will go on stock 240 wheels. tires are the easiest way to get the handleing you want. I'm running 215's up front and 195/60/15 in the back. works fine
