[DrachenFire]

anyone know any good drift spots in south jersey?
i'm in galloway in smithville...
i can't find any place to go

the proffered spot would be an abandoned parking lot or something so that i can practice without getting arrested or crashing

[NJSPEEDER]

In the rain theres this great street in galloway RIGHT Jeff lol wouldn't want to go too fast HAHA ::cough 35mph cough TREE::

[Blacdout96]

Ah to be young and stupid, which was when i was around your age when I did that, I learned my lesson, just as you did with those injectors eh? oh and another good street to do that is in absecon on a turn that goes downhill witha pole there, right bubba? so lets not compare scars here.

[bubba428]

when you drift out of the school parking lot, do you mean you pull out of there and get sideways?

I consider that getting sideways out of a parking lot lol. drifting is like doing really wide donuts, or just sliding all the way around a turn, like this- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTX7cUsHVHE

yea, anyone can get a car sideways and straighten it out, drifting is a lil bit more involved....

watch The Fast and the Furious - Tokyo Drift...it is a a$$ load harder to do then it looks man. u dont just smash the gas peddel down and take corners...

[DrachenFire]

i know exactly what drifting is... i've been studying it for the past 2 years... i think i would know =P

this right here is the best: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc9U4N02bI0

there's a crash near the end but it's awesome until then

[DrachenFire]

[bubba428]

[deadtrend1]

don't you not have your full license yet? and your asking people where you can go driving around turns at a excess speed to put the car on the very limits of its handling abilties?????

[Blacdout96]

if your looking for a way to teach yourself to drify, I went to borders last night and seen a book on how to drift, gives you diagrams and everything, its in the sports section near the end where all the race car books are if your intrested, I was gonna buy it, but bought the book Shelby GT40 instead, pretty good info and pics on Carroll's involvement in the fight against Ferrari and Ford.

And i agree, get a few years under those wings before you start doign that s***, look how many kids we lost these past couple of years doing stupid s*** in atlantic county, including my friend Joey.

[DrachenFire]

well i don't race in the streets... i don't drift in the streets either... and i already know how to drift and i have done it several times... i just wanted to know if there's any good abandoned parking lots or something...

[j0n]

:scratch: that leads me to believe that you "drift" on the streets

[DrachenFire]

[jamessr]

I wish I knew how to drift.. truth be told I'm not a good driver. Sure I can shift gears buts thats about it. I don't lite up my tires cause I don't wanna cause damage to my car...
However I'd still love to learn to drift.

well you know what ya do? go to the Junkyard and find like a V6 firebird or camaro (4th gen) and buy the rims and tires off of it, and beat the piss outta them, then after your done, take em back to te junkyarda nd get a couple dollars for the rims :lol: lots of people do that, plus if their like all season rated their easier to spin because they have a harder compund and dont get as sticky as performance or summer rated tires. and same goes for you, buy the book at borders. I bought Going Faster by Karl Lopez, its a Skip Barber Racing book, and let me tell you what, when I went to the school I was the only one that had it and was one ofthe best studensts there, buy a drifting book, and study it, itll tell you different ways you can break your car so you can get it sideways, what best techniques to use, how to take the line in a turn or multiple turns and such. You may think they wont help much cause its just a book, but youd be suprised.

[3rdGenLT1]

[Blacdout96]

[DrachenFire]

haha yeh... well my tires are full tread (kinda) and i'm supposed to get new 1s this summer so i'm good with that... and i know pretty much everything there is to know about drifting... every technique, how to take the corner, what to do in case of a spin-out, and many other things... i've been studying the stuff for about 2 years now...

[bubba428]
