Red face fwd vs rwd and awd drfters

To my understanding, We as n drifters don't want drifting to get as bad as street racing in the sense on all the BS thats goes with it, Right. For all I care if your going to use a fwd car then do so. If the Fwd drifters can prove there skills as drifters then good. If they can't prove there skills or keep up with the Rwd and Awd then too stinken bad cuz thats there problem. Flaring between drifters is bad. Drifting is having a good time, not power trippen. ok Im done.

I have no problem - as far as I'm concered you can drift just about anything with wheels on it (of course in the most literal sense of the word - this is obviously limited to paddle-steamers.)
Just refrain from acting like a nerd and making comments like "AWD cant drift" or "RWD is gay" or "FWD drifting is lame" and everything will be fine.

tell the wife, since you can't touch "her" car then that is HER car. And the Lexus is YOUR car, to do what YOU want to for YOUR car.... man you gotta lay the law down on something, a man's car is sacred.

Damn blu, that IS is awesome. I bet you'll have some fun with that as soon as your wife gets up of your ass about the modding . What was this thread about again?
