I love drifting, i love drag too, anyone know if its possible to Mod an FBODY so it can drift? (proper suspension, weight reduction and balancing)

 

Who needs to drift when you can have throttle induced oversteer?

yeah thats fun but there is NOTHING like a true inertia drift

 

Hahahahhahaha

Nice i like that. Honestly i think f bodies are some of the most fun cars to drive. they have the propper mix of street and track, are civilized enough on the street, but you can pull the rear end loose when needed.

 

Now that's what I'm talking about!

 

Why not?

I was thinking about going to a drift competition around here in Charlotte in August. I would take lessons if they offered them.

Have you seen that Honda commercial with Andretti teaching that kid how to drive the S2000? That is bad *** when he goes around that curve!

 

In charlotte? LOL.. I'll have to go see that sillyness.

Drifting, the automotive equivalent of figure skating :D

 

Drive it into the corner harder and it will drift.

 

I know a few people on thirdgen.org that do drifiting. They seem to do pretty well too so its proly not much harder in a 4th gen.

 

i think it's harder to drift with an f-bod. RWD and too much TQ, makes it pretty hard to drift. if i wanna drift, i usually do throttle induced oversteer. japanese car is good for drifting, american cars are unbeatable in the drag competition, and so i thought

 

Thats what you need to drift FWD cars don't drift very well...lol

I drift all the time in my Camaro! Florida Atlantic University was built on an old military base and it still has concrete runways built out of huge concrete slabs. Some sections of the runways were made into parking lots by painting lines on them. There's a back entrance where they painted a big S turn (first right, then left)... but there's no curbs! I go through the turn as fast as I can, usually drifting through the second bend. Once with my girlfriend I hit it so fast that we drifted waaaay off course. Some maineanance guys saw it and were cheering. Luckily the campus police have never caught me.

I haven't been there in a while, but last time I was there, the local police had cones set up and they were practicing their driving maneuvers. That was fun to watch! But I was DYING to show them how it's done

 

I'd rather see throttle-induced tire smoke

 

I'd say go to Japan if you really wanna drift that bad!

 

I agree totally with TMDZ28, *** cars are great for drifting but im in no way a "ricer" - all american muscle all the way!. I just wish i could tune my car for both drag and drift. The 4th gen camaro is terrible for drifting by the way, i love my camaro but anyone who thinks they can truly drift a stock one is either a REALLY experienced driver or is mistaken P-slides for drift. Powerslides are not drifting! I think it would be really cool to have a camaro that not only rips it up on the straights but can destroy in the hair pins as well. My rice friends always talk sh*t when it comes to our (american) cars handling, ill destroy them in a straight but im no match for there handling. I would love to just pull on them in a drift!
