I started with donuts in a parking lot to feel the weight and movement of the car and then moved to drifting. You don't want to rush into it or you'll find that you beautiful supra will end up in a ditch

haha. Does anybody know if its easier to drift in the rain because i feel that i have more control when its dry. I drifted in a fwd in the rain and ended up doing a complete 180. Also if you just get lowering springs does it mess up the camber? right now I have anti-swaybars(one of the best investments i have made to my mkiii) about to get the cusco strut tower bars..

you have more control when its dry because you can use the tire's grip to enter and exit a drift...in teh rain you dont ahve much control...but to first learn and control the car while sliding its easier to initiate a slide on wet pavement...and you will be able to feel teh movement of hte car before hitting the dry pavement...snow will also do the same thing...i have more control in dry becasue the tires have more grip...but for beginners i recommend doing it in an open wet area before tearing your tires apart on dry pavement

lowering springs affect the camber of teh car...though not a big enough effect to have it rebalanced...if you install coilovers i would consider having it readjusted...but i have negative camber on the front and a little on the rear to give it more contact patch when drifting...wears out the tires a little more...but when u drift u notice more grip so you can direct the car where you want it more easily
