Drift Practice

[drftfan]

Does anyone have an idea of a nice abandoned place to drift at??? Maybe a nightime drift session ala tokyo style. Preferably with no curbs and some turns would be nice. :welleffyoutoo:

[mplayboy72]

[dOh_bOy]

DON'T DO IT AT THE THOMAS & MACK, THAT'S WHERE I GOT BUSTED FOR DRIFTING AND GOT A $5000.00 FINE :angry: BUT AFTER A COURT AND A LAWYER IT WAS RDUCED THANK GOODNESS... THERE WAS NO CARS IN THE PARKING LOT AND YOU KNOW HOW BIG IT IS AND THE UNLV COPS DIDN'T EVEN LET ME SLIDE...... SO BE CAREFUL BUT UMM I KNOW A COUPLE OF PLACES WHERE WE CAN PRACTICE ;) BUT THERE ARE A COUPLE OF CURVES... ILL TRY TO GO TO DA HOOTERS MEET ON 6-25-04 AND I'LL LET YOU KNOW MORE....

Yeah, except I highly doubt anyone is really stupid enough to go drifting out at mt. charleston.

I don't particularly have a desire to go flying off the side of a mountain if I screw up or something breaks.

where do you think japan drifters go to practice... "TOUGE"... they even do it in the rain, on ice, and go tandam... so basicely every drifter is crazy :P

But there is a thin line between stupidity and craziness, stupidity: doing something that you have no idea how to do knowing that it is dangerous, but yet doing it anyway... craziness: doing something that you know how to do and know the danger...(I cross this line at least 10 times a day :P )

WELL, :wacko: consider me crazy cause that's where i go "touge", I'm even crazier cause im driving stock :wacko: , but i don't take it full on, I started going at a regular speed then kicked it up a notch and everytime going faster and faster, but I no my limits and not try to do anything too crazy :wacko: ...

also a good place to practice is that hairpin in front of the ski lodge :cool: going down hill it starts 2 lanes wide then opens up to 3 1/2 lanes wide... really fun and i go around 3am til the sun rises then bounce to avoid getting busted :P but i dont recommend people to go because remember...

:wacko: I'M CRAZY :wacko:
