I think we can agree that drifting has much more risk involved than straight line drag racing.

Shit can happen in any instance, but Drifting, especially with AMATEURS, is very easy to turn bad QUICK.

If i had a car with $30k invested in it, i wouldnt drift it against some S14 lol. And YES i would be scared. Scared of some $800 S14 hitting my E36 lol

Come on kid, you cant possibly sit there and say hes not right in his thinking. Besides, tandem drifting on the street, how are you gonna say BITCH MADE when he declines, its not like you can decide who wins. There arent judges. And if you do hit him, what is he gonna do then?

I would rather be called a bitch for neglecting a callout over drifting than risk my car. Sorry.

plus were in lot away from traffic? no love for drifting at all.

i dont mind drifting at all, but you cant call someone a bitch if they decline a challenge from a total stranger with a car not worth nearly as much as theirs.

Its common sense.

* The "total stranger" point I can understand. I'm not gonna be the guinea pig unless I know you can handle a car at speed. AGREED ON THAT POINT!!

* The car's "worth" I'll have to disagree. Bringing the cars "worth" makes ZERO sense. I've seen junkyard EF hatches BURN ROAD COURSES TO THE GROUND against Vettes - 350z - Bimmers. I've seen e30s snap the NECKS off of 60,000 Vettes. At the end of the day your car is only worth what it's worth to YOU and to people like you who have an affinity for that chassis. My 1st gen hatch is worth about 1k to most people - but you couldn't own mine it for less than $5k AS IT SITS.

my CRX would SELL for $6000-7000 (together or parted out)

Lankhoss Vette is worth $50,000 (ok prob more but just for arguments sake)

If we both go to Road Atlanta, you sign waivers and you are assuming the risk, you know what you are getting into. But i guarantee if i fucked up and hit his car at Road Atlanta he would flip the fuck out, i know i would if i was him. But at Road Atlanta, you are assuming these guys have training, experieince, seat time etc. They just dont let a CRX go full out against V8 muscle cars with no seat time. They also inspect cars, make sure they meet safety requirements, etc.

On the street, all that goes out the window.

I guess my point is that in a sanctioned environment, the driver skill is known before you hit the track, and yes ANYTHING can happen. But i know if im running HPDE 4 Car at RA they have a LOT of street time and instructors have signed off on him being able to drive.

This kid, who knows how good or how bad he is
