Drift practice day.....day 1

well just got back from the drift practice at summit point raceway. my first one, to make an explaination of my day short...its not as easy as it looks. lol i bet you all are like, "well duh, dumbass..." but yea, i did pretty good for it being my first time and i covered the whole kissing the wall thing, actually twice lol. the first time was so bad, i couldn't get my rear tires to break loose and i ended up understeering and slid off track into a padded wall. it pushed the left front corner up a lil' and kinked the fender up. the second was on the same run, me thinking i can swing the rear out this time....nope didn't happen. i pulled the ebrake to try to slide it but that ended up tossing me the other way and went backwards into the wall. the left taillight is busted a lil', the left rear quarter is crunched up and it dented up my muffler tip a lil'. i'll have pictures up in a lil' while. gotta upload them.

p.s. oh and i met this cat up there with a 03 CB coupe with turbonetics single turbo, kenstyle body kit, nice 3 spoke racing harts or volks maybe and some type of exhaust. he said hes tryin' to come out with us sometime so i gave him my cell number to hit me up. hes on the forums, so yo man, speak up so we know who you are. i'll post pictures of his car too.

OHHH SHIIIITTTT, you done facked up yo ride!

good stuff tho man, drifting is def not easy. I was at a stunt spot with a few of my friends today, we set up some cones in a huge parking lot and made a track out of it. Mostly we were racing 50cc dirt bikes and someone's zuma scooter...that thing is pretty fast. I won the race with it! We ended up stepping it up a notch and bringing my coupe and another guy's 330i and ran the course. I spun out a few times, and one of the cones got stuck under my car for an entire lap. I pulled over and took it out, luckly no damage on my G. I tried a few 360's and drifting...but I sucked. The guy with the 330i does this whole drift thing at summit too, he said he was supposed to go to that today but he chose to mess around with the bikes instead. He was doing some mean **** drifts and burnouts plus of course the circle wheelies and 12 o'clocks.
