  • drifting school

    I want to improve my drifting w/o rocketing my car into a telephone pole down the street. Does anyone know of a good school or any drifting tracktime any where in so cal? I called fast lane but havent heard back from anyone. What is the best american car for drifting? mustang? Do they compare to the mazdas and toyotas?

      Steve.. Haven't you been looking at our post subject line "Renting out Qualcomm" lol

      anyways.
      Core.

      Me and a shop manager are finding a way to rent out a parking (well in this case an air field) in el centro. Just search for a subject line "Renting out Qualcomm" and find out, what we've done so far.

        cough cough school

        Ive been drifting in the cough cough school and nearly slammed my vette a couple times. I want to take it to the next level. What better way to improve your street drifting than going 10/10ths on a track and losing it a few dozen times

          yeah, as a matter of fact I have called the woman that is posted on their website twice for renting it out and she hasn't returned my calls.

            Only school I learned at was the street - bald tires were my pen and paper, hairpin turns my quizzes, guardrails my exams and the rocky roadside mountian my teacher!

            But on a serious note:
            Why don't you folks get together and buy a closed-down grocery store or mall or something and set up a school or "drift-park"? Even if you don't know a whole lot about drifting, you would be able to learn if you had a space like that - it would be like if Irwindale was open to drifting all of the time!! Seasoned drifters could come and instruct others and people could commune and exchange techniques and ideas. People would surely come and pay $15 for a 2 hour session just to screw around. Of course you'd have to set up cones and track lines, but you could have a classroom kind of thing and show option videos or the drift bible and maybe even have a "pro-shop" type of thing like at hockey rinks where vendors could sell things like tires and rims, videos, tools, and maybe even suspension parts...

            Granted that you could find a place (which I'm sure that there's something around, regardless of how remote it may be) the only thing you would have to worry about is noise pollution since there is no "drifting license" yet and safety should naturally be a priority. If you did the footwork I'm sure that you could set up a fine institution!

              actually that's what we're trying to develop here. Its just San Diego is a really expesive area. Even have 10 people to contribute to the cost, its barely gonna be a good institution. Besides Cali got alot of laws about race events and safety.

              anyways.. Im gonna keep updating forums about drift sanctions here in SO CAL.\

                    if you let me drift your vette ill teach you everything you wanna know

                    if i were gonna pick a domestic car for drifting i would get a later F-body, like a 50th anniversary SS 'maro or a ws6 firechicken. i dont give a *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored* what continent it came from, if it's F/R, torquey, and handles good im all about it.

                    but for the record i dont think i would ever buy a korean car

                      Where in FL?

                      I have no AWD or RWD car right now, but I'd start one if we could get the land...
