is it becasue you do not like other forms of motorsports,you can not affford other forms of racing,or your car is not capable enough to do other things?

seems like this would get old since there are no lap times for you to improve on because it is all juding right?
Here is is straight from the horses mouth if you will..


Pure mullet in its best form. I love to drag race but I cant at the moment because I am in the fire academy and I dont wish to tempt breaking shit at the track with hard launches and more rubber spent with each pass than a whole day of drifting for me.

I had a great time at the drift event and I drive a damn 88 Mustang.It is all about having fun.I dont really call what I do drifting as much as some of the others simply cause well I have a shitty clutch pack and domestic cars powerslide much better than they drift just because of the weight issues and what not. I had a blast though man.It is all about complete loss of control while at the same time totally in control.Kinda wierd but when you slide a car sideways around a corner and set yourself up for the next corner all in one solid sweeping motion is it the greatest feeling ever.

It could probably stand next do most any other sport as far as adrenaline goes to be honest. Sliding is just fun period. Burning tires, sliding around corners, just having a blast .

Those are my reasons for doing what I do.
