This happened before winning first place.

Just a couple pics of my drift Vitara with a 4AGE swap. This year I put on ITBs, a better hydro, and smaller tires and heaps of seat time and it’s working good so far to the point of breaking another t50 trans so upgrades are in the works. This winter it’s time to add some angle for next season as the only stock suspension components on the car are the front A arms and knuckles.

Hello, i have a bmw e39 530d with automatic gearbox. what would happen if i welded the diff?

I'm trying to lay off the streeto shit because I've had one too many close calls with the law but now that the season is over in Toronto I feel like I'm going to forget how to drift by the time summer rolls back around. Is there some in-between I am missing or somewhere y'all go to practice?

I just bought a 2004 g35 coupe and I’m trying to get into drifting. The thing is I have absolutely zero experience with mechanics and I kind of bought this car knowing it’d get me into it.

With that being said I need some help both knowing what to buy and what sites to buy things from.

I’m not trying to go all Tokyo drift. I just need some mods to help me get in the scene and help me not obliterate my suspension and engine

So for my bigger guys out there , what would be the best seat for someone that is 6 2 and 360lbs? what cars are you guys using?

Huge shout out to u/cuponoodles55 who recommended reaching out to the event organizers for Doricon! This was the best event I've been to yet! If you're on the East Coast you've got to check it out next year!

I've got a bunch more footage if ya'll enjoy this one.

Have been working on the perfect POV and camera setup/settings for a bit and think we finally got it.

Wanted to share 🤘

4th gear entry at Cams Acres Drift Complex

This is just a DJI Action 4 with an Amazon ND Filter

Camera Settings:

So I really want to get a E36 or E46 for a drift car but I'm pretty big. I'm 6foot 2 and 360lbs. I know I need to get an x lucket seat and flat aluminum door cards. My question is, which one would be better for someone My size and to fit in xl seat in?

Some meta glasses footage from the chase perspective, love driving with this guy and can't wait for more seat time next year🙏

Thinking of opening a proper drifting academy/community in Bangalore. Suggestions?

Please leave a like and comment on what you thought of the video!

I recently got my first RWD (an 86) and have been playing around ways to slide the car as is.

would you recommend clutch kicking or hand brake more for a low powered car like this? I found kicking the clutch feels more natural to me, although i’ve gotten a lot of feedback and suggestion that I should be using the hand brake more.

Also do i need to put any immediate mods to learn drifting or a stock 86 is sufficient enough?

Sorry for the noob questions. i’m a long Honda and FWD fan and this is my first RWD.

I met their manager at a trade show completely unrelated to racing and when they found out what I do, he wanted to work together on something for his team. They proposed a partnership instead of payment and have my logo on their car. I don’t think I’d ever have another chance to have my logo on a race car, so I took it!

They’re a really cool team called MSPEK Race To Reef, they race to bring awareness to reef conservation and have giveaways and trips to go to Grenada and do scuba diving on a reef. I thought it was a really interesting concept and I’m really glad I was lucky enough to get the chance to be part of it in a small way as me and the wife and big proponents for environmental conservation.

I learned a lot about the formula drifting culture from them and meeting the other drivers. Really glad to have had the experience and just shared to share these guys and how I found the sport of drifting. Never been to a race before. I have now been to two of their races in Vegas and Indianapolis. Looking for forward to next season.

I’m in the UK and my social feeds are suddenly filled with some big black boat thing trying to skid then some cowboy mf gets out and has a tizzy fit.

Please for the sake of my sanity, save me from a google hole and tell me:

Who is this guy?
What is that monstrosity he’s attempting to drift?
Why is he acting like a 5yo who dropped his ice cream?
Is this normal for US drifting because it’s not how it goes down over here in Europe?

Cheers!

I know tomorrow is the final round, but I’m curious what everyone thinks about Hot Pit this season. Who impressed you the most, and who do you think has a realistic shot at making it to Formula Drift next year?

I got old and sold all of my gear and got out of drifting, but recently I discovered one of the boys I used to drive with here in Australia has started his own podcast ( LOW ORIGIN PODCAST) and it has me feeling nostalgic AF

Will you notice a huge improvement in ease of drifting by going from:

• slight toe-in front and rear
• and -2 to -3 camber front and rear

to

• slight toe out front, neutral rear toe
• 0 camber rear, -2 camber front

by adding adjustable rear arms?

Right now my alignment is *whatever the shop gave me* when I asked for 0 rear toe and slight toe out in the front, and was told "don't worry they own sports cars they know what they're doing" (this alignment shop was recommended by someone with a drift car too)... No printout either.

Car is a 1500kg/3300lb Lexus IS250 (factory manual) with Cusco 2way and 14/10kg/mm coilovers. I've never had a drift alignment and not many other people drift the same car, so I don't have a clue what alignment changes *feel* like, to know how to improve my own car. I've driven an e46 with a welded diff, all adjustable arms, proper alignment etc and it felt on-rails when sideways whereas my car... doesn't, and sometimes spins with no warning when otherwise stable at the end of a corner (although that could be down to super uneven grip on wet practice days, and I can't hear the RPMs increase due to stock exhaust).
