Default RE: I don't get it...

to me its fun because all night long i drive around looking for newly paved parking lots with tight turns..then i sweep the corner with a broom and start drifting..sometimes i find a sweet corner thats easy to drift right away and im only there for 1 tank of fuel...other corners take me a while to get the hang of because they are real tight or real long and its sometimes hard to find what speed,gear,pitch i should be at when entering the corner and what spot do i want to exit the turn at...usually those turns take a few hours or days to defeat because i end up breaking the car, run out of fuel in my fuel bottle, have do do extra tuning to the suspension to get the car to handle the turn and pitch faster..i guess to me each turn i find is a game/learning lesson...i learn from each turn another thing about drifting/car setup and i walk away happy because i was able to make the car do what i wanted to do in a certain condition..its very rewarding knowing you can do somthing like that

tonight i found 3 great corners all in the same freshly paved parking lot..i was there long enough to defeat all corners,burn 2.5 tanks of fuel,cause a fuel leak,and scratch up my new drifting body..all on rubber tiresin all id say it was a GREAT night..lol..now i have some more things to setup before tomorrow's bash battle

thats why i drift
