i totaly agree, i love it an too cannot wait for my ae86 to be finished so i can give it a go

[screech]

its now my passion, love the drift and i cant get enough.

i had my track debut recently and its got me hook, line and sinker. http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/cool.gif

[Jusdrifn 86]

yeah, i love it!!! its just so much more fun than driving 400m in a straight line... imo, plus out of every sport in the world, Drift cars look the best, then the japanese GT series, then the world rally cars (tarmac spec)

i also love track work, even if im not hanging the tail out, mountain roads and race tracks on their own, in a good handling car make me very happy

[garage_kook01]

well in about 4 months i will be all finished if i can save money

i only earn bout 500 a week and i live alone so it wont be easy

[mikes86]

im not sure about drift but cars in general affect me bad. cars=poverty

but they are a bucket of fun that i will always throw my money at week after week http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Its all about the curves and the adrenaline..

[indi]

I'm addicted, I couldnt wait for my car to be ready so I had to borrow John's sprinter and hit the skid pan, I couldn't get enough..... its like a drug gotta have MORE!

[ae86]

yeah i cant wait until my hachi is finished..

sometimes its frustrating walking outside to see your hachi parked up in the garage or backyard because of the 'next' reason why it cant be on the road, but its all worth it when you end up with the result you wanted ^-^

[DRiiFT_King]

its hard to get track time when your 16, but im getting to know alot of people in the vic drift scene and have been helping out for the past 10 or so months, my car will be driftable give it a couple of months, so ill see what happens, and yeah im hooked

[Matt-AE86]

I first found out about drifting back in about '98... I am interested in it... just not all that passionate about it. I perfer other motorsports.

That being said, drifting is still a hell of a lot of fun http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif

[driftae86]

I love it, ever since my bro showed me Initial D, i havnt been able to stop, its addictive i tell u http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif and its not a bad thing http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Drift owns.

Drift consumes a large %age of my time and money.

[Steve-AE86]

[mumblezzz]

Drift rapes my wallet without lube and leaves it with a rash and a nasty burning sensation.

Yip...just like our place! The other day I almost burnt the shed down angle grinding off my S-series sway bar mounts! The shit started a big fire :s

mangotree performance to all you jokers thanks very much a very sacred and special place insanity happens on regular basis

[funkymonkey]

too many people "in the scene" think that if you own an AE86 it automatically means you're a drifter... maybe I should get a sticker that says "My name is NOT Takumi".

although getting the car sideways in the chicanes at Winton while an R34 V Spec II is chasing you is pretty good fun

quick question... can you enter a track car (like perspex windows, non street tyres, exhaust out the side of the car, spits flames when on and off throttle etc) as a privateer in the drift comps? I can remove all the noodlebox sponsorship decals.

[mr2drift]

as far as i know yes you can... go for it would be HOT

[funkymonkey]

how would I have to change the suspension setup? way stiffer I guess and more camber for better grip on lock?

I suck at the drifting though, and would be pretty funny to see a semi prepped track car get owned by a stock silvia. wish you got points for sticking to a line and "grip driving" http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[mr2drift]

bah very little to change do you know your springrates and alignment settings? could give you some tips if you knew how it is set now...

[Jusdrifn 86]

moved to general discussions... this isnt an off topic thread http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/dry.gif

anyway,
yeah, im sick of people yelling "sprinter, you must be a sick drifter"
because i prefer track work and mountain runs, i want to try my hand at drifting but people need to realise sprinters are awesome at other things too!

just my 2c

[garage_kook01]

yeah they are good allround and when i finally get my engine setup will be even better

[ae86levint]

i was sitting parked in my car saturday night, just mindin my own and sippn a drink when this fugly blonde bogan shiela hangs out the side of a vs commo and screams f#$% drifter c!@#s, i stared in disbelief as they did a power slide away and up the road. idiots.
