Supra's Drifting

[Ahmad88]

when i had my supra i was goin to get some food around 1 or 2 AM i find myself cuttin through a big parking lot, it was empty no cops around. i stop and turn down the radio and listen to the engine to see what she wants. She wanted a figure 8 badly... i start from a 20mph roll shift in neutral and rev and shift in D and pulled a nice figure 8 it has a lil tail though but still nice, and that figure 8 is still in that parking lot today its a lil faded but u can see it. when i pulled up to the mcdonald's window to pay for my food the worker said she smelled burning rubber. i told her to look over at the parking lot and she saw it. she gave me a free double cheese burger

Actually you CAN drift a front wheel drive car

"its only called powersliding"
exactly, you cant drift with a fwd
le me see sumbody try to drift at 60 mph then change directions
while connecting drifts without straightening out

not to argue with you, but fwd cars cant drift

[Ahmad88]

i tried drifting in a FWD car the only thing it did was fish tail and then straighten out, i recommend not to do it when ur goin fast cause i learned that the hardway....

I know you cant "DRIFT" a FWD car, but there is a class for FWD cars...but you have to put a lot of money into them to make them powerful enough to keep them going...

i know why that camry successfully drifted that S turn,
1. he was goin fast enough
2. the body roll helped him slide
3. if it was only that firs turn he would have turned back around to the left but since it was a S turn he turned to the left and he kept the drift goin.
4. he practiced thats for sure, no way a noob could pull that off in one or a few tries.

of course any car could do that

thats what you call getting up to 45 cutting to the left and back to the right real quick to make the back end come out.
and of course when you do taht your gonna get some sort of drift acttion.

lets see him go around a course or a big C turn with the back end still out without a high speed start

I can drift mine when i runs

[Supra2NR]

ok lets break it down

what is drifting

3 ways
e-brake
clutch dip
power over

drift : creating an arc while spinning the rear tires while maintaining traction with the front tires

what fwd cars do is a 4-wheel slide, (or powerslide)
that is mostly avoided in drifting, cuz that how you lose points
same thing with straightening out big point deduction (instant loss)
spinning out (also instant loss)

turning on a pivot point is not drifting, the closes that thing comes is "donuts"
and the only way a fwd can create and arc is to powerslide (which isnt drifting)

what that camry did was empresive, but still is not drifting
its jus fishtailing with style and control
it might look like it was drifting, but it jus turned on two diffrent pivot points

unless you guys can master to drift the car backwards
so this way you can spin the rear , and have traction in the front
i think you can create somewhat of an arc like that
i'll leave it to the pros tho
now that i will be in tears of joy, cuz i will be so f-ing impressed
hands down to anybody that can do that


and b fair now

lets see him go around a course or a big C turn with the back end still out without a high speed start

we rwd drivers get a high speed start too, thats what makes it exciting
