drift?

how hard is it to drift a fwd?

pull up the handbrake round a corner and u will find out

Or just pop the clutch in second while in midturn then try to regain control... fun stuff... you can heel/toe too but you should really practice first.

true drifting wont happen in a FF car please dont embrass us anymore by being a mad tyte jdm drfito boi.

I think ppl who drift in Fwd cars get mad respect! Its pretty hard to do.

no i laugh and say wow great way to blow a nice apex!

FF cars cant' drift for real its still ass dragging

Have you ever tried it, Ace? It's kind of fun but kind of scary too. It may not be "true drifting" as you say whereby the rear wheels spin and you steer through a turn with the front, but in the twisties if you know what you're doing in a FWD you can drift through curves pretty quick.

or i can do it the right way grip through and fly by all the boy racers.
hmm i'll stick to real racing.

in icey parking lot its just sliding still but fun i'll admit

Whatever works best for you... I use grip depending on speed and curve radius. If the curve is tight I'll drift it but that's just me... :biggrin:

i have seen clip of fwd cars drifting in comps. i just wanted to know to know. i think you are just scared to try it ace fuck head

ok well if your having fun what ever but you understand that for speed grip > drift 110% of the time heck if otherwise i bet all the F-1 cars would be running some steelies up front :iceslolan

just the way the world works.

Damn there was an article on think SCC mag. Well they have this article to tell you how to drift on a FWD. I'll have to find it. Search on here to see if you can find it. I know someone posted it up before.

bah his stand up is good!
its nothing like youd think.

Ace, I hardly ever use the e-brake when drifting but I do depending on how technical I'm getting with it. Let's just say I know the terrain I drive on. I like to cruise through a spot once or twice to check it out and then I'll hit it at good speed and waste it... successfully I might add. I wish I had some film coverage to show you. My latest was drifting a really sweet 80 degree dirt road intersection perfectly at about 40+mph. What can I say? I'd only been through there twice (from opposite direction) and I hadn't driven my car in awhile. And yeah it's fun and I don't do it all the time cuz I don't have to practice too much at it anymore and I kind of like my exedy clutch. I never do it when there are other cars around but if I was racing somebody like you in a place like that I'd definitely pass you through a turn in a drift coming inches from your fender and exiting in front of you... LMAO

that has to due with the dirt your going to slide anyway you dont need to ebrake for that. you can't grip that stuff so might as well slide it and have some fun

try on tarmac and you sure wont be passing me :naughty:

I was talking about tarmac, dude. But I was j/p anyway, yo.... I probably wouldn't drift in a race (if I ever did) either cuz I wouldn't want to mess up and get in a wreck or something. :uhoh:

Yeah, I think I heard Bob Saget once do stand up and he's actually pretty funny.... btw... initials are B.S. :lol:

I still dont think bob saget is funny. I heard his stand up...still not funny IMO ;)

I was at that Falken Tire drift demo thing at Irwindale Speedway the other week and there was a JDM EF9 with B18c with ITB's. I was really surprised at how well he was driftin in that thing. He was doin pretty good though for a FF.

I once accidently got my old honda sideways by pulling the ebrake, when I first did my breaks for the 1st time (didn't know what I was doing and had air in the break lines) lol. so I couldn't stop so I got scared and pulled the ebrake lol. But as for you guys bringing up bob sagat..that is old memories..man that guy sucked on americas funniest videos..his jokes were sooo lame :lol:

but if I wanted to drift, I'de go buy RWD car not worry about messing w/ the ebrake in a FWD car.

drifting on the city street this is why the IMPORT drivers have such a bad rap. Hmm take it to the tracks guys. Theres a ton of them out there just do some research hell maybe you will learn how to drive.

As far as drifting a front wheel drive, you can powerslide, but not true drift. And I HATE 90% of drifters too. Why? Because they don't know how to drift, just fucking oversteer off a corner etc. Drift is becoming rice central. As for antyhing resembling FF drift, I recently slid into Darby St in the wet, bagged it up, had wheel spin full lock to the right, sliding up the road, and got tyre smoke in the RAIN. But still isn't drift to me.

And is big bad mohawk guy an old member having a laugh, or is he for real? What a fucking cranker. He runs 16's and wants to drift? Go buy a fucking camry.

ah i tried drifting my civic, got to sliding pretty good a few times on a rainy day on a slick newly paved block with no traffic no houses, jus a field and a gate. Really screws your alignment up to hell..lol. It's fun, don't care if it's real drifting or not. Drifting is almost like breakdancing, it gets old. Still mad fun tho, sidewayyzzz!

I bet you can do a mad drift on one of those gas powered scooters!! Get at an angle, turn it all the way to one side, and yank the brake!!! If you can drift a scooter, i'd think ur jesus!

arent camry's FF also?

btw i think it is considered a drift if you can control it. some awd cars require e-brake to initiate drift(done alot in rally cars).

When I say drift in ff it's not the same as rwd... OBVIOUSLY. Drifting in FF looks different and is different. If you got sideways in your FF because you pulled up the e-brake you weren't drifting you were just losing control of your car. Basically, drifting a FF has the same principal as RWD and that is get through the turn as quickly as possible. The difference is you don't go sideways making the car look like a gymnist. When you drift a FF you basically cut corners and when you cut super tight corners you slide some and that is the drift part. You never really lose control... ie. you slide on purpose to own that turn. And also, FF "drifting" is not done all the time. And I don't do it all the time. I practiced the technique a lot to figure it out (on empty roads), but it's only when needed/wanted or having mad fun on dirt roads (easy shit). Oh and where I live the altitude changes constantly because of the terrain and the roads aren't always straight.

:iagree: And those rally cars are set up so the e-brake can be applied with the flick of a wrist instead of reaching down between the seats. Those guys don't do it to hotdog like the drifters though, they do it to knock seconds off a stage.

God thank you bro someone got this

you want to drift go talk to the 240 guys they love boy racers who are drifters too.

Rally is on dirt fucking sliding anyway so contoling a slide *drift* is better then slopping around and wacking a tree.

want to drift for real? D1 comp is out there show up with your lil D motored civics watch all the trophys not go to you.

Grip > drift other wise Shumie would be running some bald steelies up front on his F1 car

I kinda agree with Ace. I don't think "boy racers" should be trying to drift with their Hondas.

BTW: I've been into Rally (tarmac, dirt/gravel, etc.) for many years so I know what I'm doing to and from different types of terrain. But I still have enough sense not to overstep my limits otherwise I probably would not be typing this right now.

very well spoken alot more tame then the way i pharsed it. But same message.

I just added alot more of you ricy fuckwits lol.

Turtle any info you got on Rally maybe you can hook ED brother with? I'm hardcore into road now but i still am dieing to try rally esp a rally X

I don't race. The nearest competition is like 200 miles away and only takes place like once or twice a year. I first learned how to manipulate the various roads by being the passenger of my 87 tercel hatch (a lot like the std 1.5 4 spd but carbed). I watched what more experienced drivers did first then I started to practice myself. I bought a 944 and beat the piss out of it on dirt/gravel and tarmac in the mountains and had to fix much of the front end. I only really drifted that car once exiting a highway at an unknown exit at 60mph dropping to second and sliding sideways out of it. I got rid of it cuz parts are a rip off. Then I got my CRX cuz it was small, dirt cheap off ebay and it was already modded. I drove it back from NJ, got it running decent, put some adjustable coilovers on it and started to rip the shit out of it. I knew it looked ricey but I hardly ever did the boy racer thing cuz I was concentrating on my own driving skills. My guess is if you can grip drive your civic awesome then you probably won't have trouble with rally. If you care what your ride looks like you may not want to take it off pavement.

cool story alough i'm a lil bummed i was hoping youd be my in for some rally X. It would be worth the rock chips for that shit!

but a beater made be in my futre soon i'd play with that in the dirt.
you mentioned NJ where you at?

I've been living in western SC for 12 years now, but I grew up in Lakewood, NJ 'til I was 19...

ah ok i know where lakewood is i'm from clifton if you step in the way back machine.

SC is nice state quite underated in my book

Sorry I am a newbie to this forum I have been drifting ff for five years now, i'm sorry but i don't like when people say you can't drift an FF just because you can't do it doesn't mean it can't be done, this applies to everyone that dogs FF drifting is very complicated and obviously you don't understand it if you are saying that FF's can't drift, in short if it has wheels and a motor it can and will be drifted

Sweet, Im going to go drift my lawn mower, should shave some time off yard work... or atleast shave a few inches off the grass.

haha new sig

Sounds reasonable. I slide the wheels on the shopping cart while in walmart to cut corners. If I didn't I'd be there all f*cking day... especially if I got stuck behind that 400lb. woman riding on that sit down cart thingy that sounded like it was about to give out... yes, I'm serious....

:lol: :lol:

I just got groceries there tonight..I f---ing hate that place!
I always have to be behind a nice 300 pounder with her 5 screaming kids and cart overflowing with junk food.

& I too ride the shopping cart- usually through the parking lot though while my girlfriend pushes me. :lol:

when I was on walmart remodeling crew we would take buggys out back and and run as fast as we could into each other, hit hard enough and the buggys will collapse.
