You hear the car in the vid lose traction because its a drift car
Ok, ok, ok, I'm sorry for crossing the 2l yellow.
At least let me explain my self.
Just to make it clear at any point but 2 times I was driving my car to it’s full 100% potential. If you ask me how hard I was driving it hard overall I will have to say around 65 to 75% of it full potential. (my tunable suspension wasn’t even set-up for cornering is set-up to minimize tire wear).
Full potential: Tire traction, suspension, brakes and power wise.
To prove a point if you see when I’m chasing the camera there is time to time I’m cornering and my 2 driver side tires are over the paint stripes and in any of those turns I lose control of my car, why b/c the car was not at its max traction or cornering capabilities.
Now you might think he must to been driving hard to drift the car around that turn, well in reality that drift was text book and one of the simple ones you could do… what am I talking about…. I enter the corner just like in the previous run (camera in the car) but I stay in my brakes a bit longer and then shift my weight to the rear by rolling in the throttle gradually until the rear tires lose traction. Why I did not correct it, number 1 I was there to have fun, number 2 I knew I have enough space to drift it corrected with out even stepping in to on coming traffic and 3rd my sister was bitching about my not drifting when I could…. So I just went for it.
Even monkeys fall from trees:
Yes there was one time where I got carried away and enter on single turn to hot and had to cause a over steer to not get off the road, but if I would the was plenty of natural padding to stop me (not in video).
So from all of that time only once I over drove my tires brakes etc….
The yellow:
I think I was the only one with a co-pilot in the runs. Me and my little sister were running in a Rally configuration team. She will have the long vision: keep her eyes in the next corners and count cars and tell me if I could go wide or not. While I was concentrating in the short vision: making sure I drove the safest lane and adjusting speed to up coming road conditions (change in asphalt, oil water or fluids, and giving room to drivers). Same set-up my uncle and I used when I did Rally back in me teenager years
So I have 4 ayes instead 2 and I kicked you’all ass b/c of that….. just kidding. My sister and I had a blast!

......u still crossed the double yellow...........
..........just playin.........
...I use to think the same way......but Dirty Mech. is right......downshifting and modulating your brakes like you normaly do is all the same up there.....the only difference is the scenary is better......
