Yeah...there are a few drift trucks.
lol...you guys are debating over who has more common sense and others are trying to validate that they have them too.
haha, fail.
I know this really good drifter down at BP on Pleasent Hill on Saturday nights. He's known as the "BP drifter". He has even gotten arrested for his skills. He has a red/black two toned civic and drag radials in the back. You and him would be good on a drift team.

Is this a legal spot?
after i get the signature Wednesday by the company cops cannot do anything as long as we are on the businesses property and we all carry a copy of this in our cars.
everyone who shows up will need to print out one of these (this is the master copy it has the business release too)
i will bring a few more copys but before you do anything this needs to be signed by you and copied the copy for yourself and the master for the company (in case your dumb ass trys to sew them) after you have signed this (there is a Kroger down the street go make a copy for 50 cents) your on your own anything happens to you its YOUR ASS not theres not mine.

ok, I'm going to supply a definition of drifting since you are still stuck on "maximum angle while baking the tires".... "A car is said to be drifting when the rear slip angle is greater than the front slip angle, and the front wheels are pointing in the opposite direction of the turn." And actually during qualifying, time attack, etc. you do see alot more swinging the rear... and drivers put alot more strain on the tires... now on time attacks like Tsukuba circuit where they are using full racing slicks that grip the road like gum on a wall, it makes it pretty difficult to drift and using harder tires just to be able to drift the corners that you actually could drift faster would be unpracticle because you would be slower in the others... I never said its always faster to drift... and I only stated that I heard somewhere that ultimately it could be faster, through physics... we all know that some corners are faster to drift, some are faster to grip, and there are so many variables that determine which are which...Originally Posted by simontibbett
LOL!
Yea, that waiver does sooooooomuch. That's as half-assed as your "panda" Miata. Good luck with that.
ok well if you have something to add let me know... its half assed because its a rough copy but it covers the basics....Originally Posted by Marty

this sight has a tendency to stray far from its original purpose all the time it was made to keep people informed and let enthusiasts meet other enthusiasts, why don't we act like adults and true gear heads and help one another rather than bash ALL THE TIME!

I'll alert the media.
MskunkM sign up and come out. no homemade waiver is going to stand up if someone gets hurt.
bring groupies and dont worry if there are barely legal.
send them to me for validation...

To the guy with the reply about drifting at not the max angle, I was agreeing with SOME forms of four wheel drifts being quick. But people run in and say DRIFTING is FASTEST without much detail, and more then likely they are actually saying real show comp drifting is faster then regular driving.
dudes seriously can we get back to the freakin topic i mean if u want to argue wheather drifting is faster than do that somewhere else plz this thread is for those who might be interested into being on the team. I think what skunk is trying to do is a good idea if you dont just hold your 2 cents please and stop being so negative.

well back in the day in nascar they used to drift the whole circle, but because they started going too fast the officials made the drivers go around the track without drifting due to safety reasons
^LOL I highly doubt any NASCAR's today could drift that big of a track. And it be any faster.
