What happens when you try and drift (Try)

[chris p]

After a go kart session at my local track one of the organisers asked if i woul dlike to take the rx round and have a go at drifting as the eurodrift competition was on the next weekend and he was trying to drum up some interest, half an hour and a nasty meeting with a tyre wall later .....





Quite an expensive bit of fun :2eek

oh mate!!!!!....feel for you bud

[D1 WTF]

harsh, sorry mate.  empty car parks are a good start.  well done for having the guts to give it a go though.

Oh the joys of drifting, know them too well

[chris p]

I actually really enjoyed it and randomly was still laughing as i crawled out my passenger side door and surveyed the wreckage of my bumper (answers on a postcard as to what it was;) ).

I have since bought a 200sx to satisfy the craving and poor rex is now in the bodyshop.:driving

could have been worse, at least no damage to the chassis.

[chris p]

[NurburgRob]

I did that at the Nurburgring with the same result!!!!!!

You\'ll enjoy drifting the 200sx... it all happens alot slower and is easier to control than the FD (in standard trim).

[chris p]

yeah i know i had a little play last weekend the fear and respect factor is now firmly there though !

[Ricco_04]

Ouch, sorry to see that

[chris p]

nurburgrob: show us some pics of yours, is it worse ??

[NurburgRob]

Mine\'s not even close to yours! just got a scuffed front bumper although my bro did similar damage to you.

It\'s hard to drift without the proper diff.
