Yah pretty sure this is where it should go.
Getting pretty interested in drifting latly and I know there a hand full of people of here that know about it. Getting a 240 fastback here pretty soon was wondering like, where you can practice or learn drifting techniques…

its hard to find safe spots around town, easiest and fastest way to learn is at the track, ie: beaveruns skidpad… dont have to worry about curbs, cops, or people…
I love it, i think youll drive 1000x better on the track… i do
…just watch the embankment at the back, shes a doozie
but then again… Zspot, whadda doin at 2am sunday morning? \>: )

ya i think the best way to learn how to actually control your car before you go into a comp or practice and go flying into a corner and understeer (lol) is to find a parking lot (where noone is and not gonna be annoying or waking people up) and start out doing donuts, larger donuts and figure 8’s… i dunno thats how i learned… but i lost my touch since i haven’t had my car for quite some time haha…
should be back in it by the end of the week sr approved :down: lol
