I don't know about you guys, but I'm loving every second of this...  :2thumbs:
I'm also reminded that just a couple af days ago they put salt down on the roads here, so it'll be a while before I can get behind the wheel again...  :brickwall:

Back in the day it was called Power Slidding where I'm from. When did it become called drifting?
Hey, you can hate the game but don't hate the player.

Must be some nasty stone chips on the 1/4's after the back road episode. As mentioned above there is some major twist going on. Do the doors still open and shut  :o

its called being 'recycled' such as clothing, technology, etc...all the same stuff, but different names for it. Im sure power sliding was around way before your time also they called it something different before your time also.

Yeah... That is fun to do, but sliding around with a camera stuck to the side of the car, while OTHER people are also driving on a public road....NOT smart. I hate to sound like an old man here. I peel out and slide around corners only when I can see that there are no other cars nearby.

Kids are killed way to often doing stuff like that. Even if he races on a pro circut he is a douche for driving on a public road like that & with passengers no less. I don't care if I sound like an old man.

I think that was great! although the gravel gives me no respect for the man! you know how hard it is to fix chips?  :popcrn:
Restoring a charger is like a saying I heard along time ago "I never said it would be easy, I only said it would be worth it".... Jesus I wish I could remember who said that...

Hey MOONshine guy......
Thanks for the links. That dude in the green 240 can DRIVE! Why though... why, do these guys have to link in such stupid music? I can't see the connection of drifting  a powerful car with  ghetto cRAP "music".

Sorry, I'm unimpressed.

Sliding on gravel, no big whoop.

The asphalt slide was a good start, but if he had held the slide throught he whole turn and then whipped into opposite lock into the next turn, like a real drifter, and continued through the course, then I'd be impressed.
