    Default Whats your preference?

    Just curious to know, for sliding your bus, what do you prefer?

    Street / Hills / Track / Other?

    And why?

    Hills and Street, purely because its just convienent...

    im not really the type to go spending $100+ on a track event, only to drive my car in the same manner as in the hills. QR is also about 150km away from where i store my car... so it starts to add up quickly if i break something etc

    mainly on the street, industrial estates, rest stops, large corners with good visibility
    have also hit up a couple of mountains but they seem to be a little more scary than what i usually do lol

    i wanna hit the track soon to!! just gotta wait till i can get up there

    what i want to know from people who do it on hills is..

    how fast you u take an average corner and how much sideways are u?..
    how big are the roads u do it on...

    ive only evered griped on hills and i think i do a bloody good job if i can keep up to a Type R thats knows how to drive his car

    the thought of taking corners sideways on hills are always on my mind everytime we head to the mountains...but i know im not ready to be messing around like that yet

    i dont see the point in heading to the hills and practicing at slow speed, i wont even be able to drift halfway of the corner with that kind of speed and minimum road space...

    so its track and superwide open areas for a bit of fun

    sorry for long post, but in short, i dont think i got the balls yet to not cry if i was to ride off my car in the mountains

    Only done track until now & totally not worth the effort, except im the most unlukiest man in the history of 86ing,
    1st outing, 6 hour round trip, too loud.
    2nd outing , 4 hours round trip, different car 10 mins in rolled car.
    3rd outing, 6 hour round trip, fowling plugs due to new less loud exhaust.
    4th outing, 6 hour round trip, exhaust good, clutch goes off line.
    5th outing, 6 hour round trip,car wont start/idle, heavy rain, damp etc.

    The hills are local,

    ^^^poor bastard.....i always have that though if i road trip to a track but has never happened....yet.

    Idustrial estates are fun but pretty high risk these days.....i grip in the hills cause my car is built for it and i would most likely crash if i was sliding.

    i used to explore the local cane paddocks when i had my ke30...that was epic fun.
