the only thing i dont like, is they show “drift cars” in magazines that arnt actually drifting, they are either parked, or some sluts naked in teh drivers seat.
ive never read an article in a magazine actually talking about proper technique. line. angle.
so many people out there dont know what the fuck they are doing.
From what I remember there was this one special “DRIFTING” edition of import tuner magazine? Correct me if it’s the wrong magazine…
Anyway they had some useful information in that which I found pretty interesting… They never went about technique in detail, nor line or angle… but That’s not something you can really teach/explain… you have to develop your own and create your own style…
Yes there was, they just came out with another issue.
modified is getting better on drifting and driving tech. They have a page atleast of each every month now, for the past 4 issues i think.
it’s not great, but it’s a start.
its all complete crap, people in my class read that shit and think theyre fucking drift know it all’s.
:roll:
so its shitty when there is nothing in mags
then when there is you get pissed cause people read it and think they are game?
whats the solution jesse? please oh please tell me!
lol you fucking silly boy

its true jessie… either it exists or it doesnt, get off the fence.
if they had “how to drift” articles in magazines anyone with $5.99 could and would read these techniques and try them on the street…
with simply covering the events and making it seem like fun, the magazines will get people out to the tracks to hone their skills.
