Sure fire way of not getting caught

Be aware of your surroundings, don't be stupid, stay away from high traffic areas, or just don't drift in public areas at all and keep it at drift events.

when we drift the streets we usually do it from 11pm to 3 or 4 am and there is about 80+ cars, they dont bust anyone they just come so we can leave than 30 mins later we are there doing it again, not everyone drifts, some stand on corner and when the cops come the horn is beeped 1 time for 2 or 3 seconds than we leave in a big #$$ convoy, but thats here in japan in the us they got faster and more cars so they could probably catch you, but dont do it when there is people around please im getting ready to go to the us, and i plan to drift my silvia there so dont f*&$ it up for me please.

Actually since I live in Miami I have to stay away from the city, ever since Fast and the furious. The kids here have been drag racing and droping like flies (yea alot are dying). So I have to go to the far out skirts of the city. In Miami we actually have all that undercover in the scene B.S. The scene is just too big and annoyig on any given tuesday or thursday you'll have about 200+ rice rockets in a parking lot. In fact the cops just did a raid of one of the hangouts and they got 194 arrests. It's sad. If I were you I would stay in Japan and stay away from places like Miami. (It's flat too...)

man all ui got to work with are small industrial sectors around chicago. Cops barely ever been seen unless they patrol that one night of the month. other than tht, we gots nice little intersections, quick 90 degree turns and wide enough space that you could do a duel drift.


chicago is pretty good.

Here in NE Ohio we've got a parkway w/ plenty of S-curves and"dangerous curves" as the signs say. and from about 12am to 4am its empty. Its also a good 15 miles long. Just gotta watch out for deer.

If you dont want to get busted then keep it on the track. Its as simple as that. Realize the consequences, and if you cant handle them, then dont break the law. This isnt Japan, our street culture here is VERY different. You WILL get messed up if they catch you. Best bet if you are good and you know the mountain is to run because the cops probably dont know it as good as you. I have never been busted because I only drift on a track (legally), but I do know someone that was arrested for "drifting". But the messed up thing was, he wasnt drifting, he wasnt racing, in fact he wasnt even speeding. He was doing 25mph in a 35mph zone going downhill in a known local drifting spot on the mountain, and he crossed the center median to practice his apex (going really slow, empty road), and out of nowhere this cops turns on his lights and he got pulled over and arrested. The cop knew what drifting was (!!!) and accused him of drifting and racing (so BS). He got arrested for Reckless Driving. He was pretty pissed because if he was gonna get busted he at least wanted to do something cool (he drives a S2K BTW). Hope he gets off.

We always go with a group and have a lookout. 2 way radios are really cheap too. And always make sure there's more than one exit so they can't block you in. Around here they love to block people in and chances are they won't chase if there's 5 cars going in two directions.

People here have been busted alot but never get arrested.

It's also good to keep your car looking stock so if you come back around they might think you are through traffic.

[panda_3ight_6]

theres somthing to be said about that, if a car looks fast of course you'll get pulled over... if it looks like a normal car... then its less likly... my dads been pulled over numerous times for driving cars that look and sound fast, why do you think they make exaushts that stay within the leagl dB limit but still give you alot of HP gain?
