How can you drift that thing? It's not a 335i...

And open diff FTL.

turn off the DTC and step on it.. it does a pretty good drift!! I usually do it in the rain when it's wet, this time it was dry and I really floored it and went on for a little too long and I just couldn't stop it! Embarrassing!!!

silver lining: you now have a good excuse to do an M3 susp conversion. Cheers.

Sorry to hear, damnn

Try again with better tires next time. Who buys Triangle tires?

JDane07 · 02-19-2012, 11:38 PM

Aww that sucks. I'm sure we are all guilty of attempting a "drift" at inopportune times. Hope you get your ride back soon and better than ever!

AndyDaBoss · 02-20-2012, 12:04 AM

1. u make a thread about something stupid u did (granted, most of us have probably done stupid things too) and how ur gonna be without a car for a month
2. but 3 hrs later u post that u got the car back and washed n cleaned?
3. why didnt u just post everything at the same time in the first post?

Malbolge · 02-20-2012, 03:08 AM

that's rough, but come on on such low profile tyres you grip loss will be quite brutal once it happens. no margin for error. More sidewall and you'll have smoother control.

Looks also like a big hit and rims if I'm right, held up very well. Forgestar 14s?

Ghost170 · 02-20-2012, 04:14 AM

what lsd are you running?

power sliding is one thing, drifting is another which a LSD is needed to hold the slide.

hope you get the car back soon though! i recently had to go 3 weeks without my car and it was a sincerely depressing 3 weeks.

I know, I have a second car, and tried doing anything with it but it sux... it's an old Accord so that's why I use this one!

91Octane · 02-20-2012, 02:20 PM

Is part 2 coming soon?

vinnymac · 02-20-2012, 02:21 PM

Ouch!

turb0mike · 02-20-2012, 02:46 PM

Does anyone else think this was one of the dumbest ideas in the world? Why would you drift on the street and possibly injure or kill a bystander? At least take it to an open parking lot of an abandoned building or something. Really though, don't do stupid shit like this...
