Yeah, more speed would be nice, I guess thats what track days are for because I'm pretty screwed if I wreck on the street. Since my friend left to college I don't have any way of putting vids on the computer but if I could I would put up a video of some of my runs this past weekend. It was a small parking lot event but I did really well in terms of connecting all the turns and not spinning out that much.

Awesome..your car looks like mine. This video reminds me of when I was first learning how to drift. All and all, your technique is pretty good, but like everyone else here, we can use more practice. So, keep practicing but remember to keep it off the streets. I think your parking lot drifting days are nearing to an end, since you have a graps of basic handling, the next level is necessary, track drifting. Save money for a decent lsd!..it creates a big impact on the feel and handling of the car. I founded that learning racing techinques gave me a better understanding of what happens when a car is in motion and what to do in a particular situation using footwork, steering input, and weight transfer. So, Keep learning and have fun, Godspeed!

not bad at all
Still since the turn and the driving was mostly the same...
Varying on the camera angle would have made it SOO much better
If you are that good at keeping that one little drift, the cameraman should be way more daring to get some nice action shots

Because I'm sure if this was true, a lot more people out there would be a lot happier and wouldn't be hunting for lsd's to put in their s14's. And full lock on accell huh? I guess that's why I can't to a donut and when I punch it smoke pours from one wheel and I leave one big burnout mark.

Originally posted by FC3slider88I'm pretty sure I had it jacked up before and I remeber one wheel spinning the opposite way than the other one. But even if I am wrong, which I don't think I am, I still don't see how all s14's came with vlsd.
It locks up full to the left, which an open diff shouldn't do. Weird car u have mate :P
