since my FWD car is so awesome at drifting...


if i feel like being stupid and trying to drift i either weight transfer (jab the brake, then turn) or E-brake+weight transfer (jab the brake, yank the e-brake, then turn) :lol:

i know that Mr. Snapps uses multiple-clutch-kick technique to sustain his drifts....

9 clutch-kicks between turn 3 and turn 4... on the lanierland speedway. haha.

in the FC and the 13 i was all about some feint/crutch kicku with the occasional e-brake to initiate some slidey u-turns and 90 degree turns. the celica ebrake sucks combined with no susp = i need rain/gravel and lots of clutch kicks. i can feint it in the gravel though and rock some sweet manjis. bike don't drift.
