What a joke. Lets have see who can find the best quotes. > Mesh rims mean drifter. Black steelies mean drag > 86s – Toyota fastback Celicas from the mid-'80s > Aldaba says he started drifting for the same reason he used to DJ in high school. “I always liked to be the center of attention, like, I like it when people look at me. I’m a pretty good driver, and that’s what’s cool now.” > Vanessa says she “hangs out with different types of guys. Gangsters. Rappers. Drifters. I also have my top-notch friends, guys who go to night clubs.” ---
