it came from both. but more from rr/ax since its done on pavement. it takes no skill to get sideways on dirt. lolQuote:

Road rally is kind of like road racing, in a way, the cars were not rally based cars. BUT were there any real tracks at the time? I am betting a road course was made for sure before a special rally stage was ran.
good god this thread has the AIDs
black hills is fun
watermellon speedway is fun too. feb 16th drift event
Seems to me in rallying after the apex the nose of the car is pretty much pointed to where the car is going (or that's the point), whereas in drifting you're still trying to get as much sideways action, two different things. But I'm neither the rally nor the drift expert.Quote:

Rally def played a roll in drifting, feint is not even the origional name ;) Scandinavian flick ftw.
You ever watched rallying? In tight sections the back end is always out. Sideways in high speed sweepers, etc. Watch group B videos for the best effect ;)
where is black hills located may i ask?

screw what they all say black hills is great. its a little rough but its a track not a parking lot. im sure road atlanta is just as bad if you go off the track which is why you shouldnt. anyways if you have a drift car and you dont expect it to get hurt your in for a rude awakening.Quote:

other than that spot i wouldn't say the track is unsafe, just a slow course.
im just trying to find a safe spot to practice and have fun. tune my skills and do it the right way. cuz im not a ricer and im smart enough to do my homework and practice safety rather than go out there like some ppl do after watching tokyo drift. lol na serious im just trying to find a safe place to improve my skills now if theres some abandon spots that ppl know plz share the intel.
no ones going to give up a good spot. doesn't matter because a drift event is the single best thing you can do to improve your driving. check the events and competition areas for event threads.
you definetly have to find your own spot and keep it a secret. if a particular area gets
too many ppl sliding around there, then the cops start camping there. there are a few
places i can go where i wont get harrased, but just drive around and LOOK, you will
find someplace. Make sure you are away from main roads and high traffic areas.
P.s. industrial areas after hours FTW!!!

black hills circuit in barnesville georgia, 30 bucks an hour to drift.
although i am guilty of it, i do not recommend drifting outside of the track. and if i do its a secure location wayyy out of the way of any public streets or buildings
i kinda figured that thnks ppl while time to drive but premium isnt cheap lol
that reminds me man last night i was doing hell driftin at the gainesville wally world when it was raining in my civic..Quote:
