finally getting my car to get slideways with ease!!
Tonight was the FOERST night I went out drifting since the sway bar install [big ups to the airborne boys again for that!]. And wow. wow! The combination of the sway bars, rear coilovers set on full stiff, and DCCD adjustments was just what I needed to finally get my car drifting. I was afraid since it hadn't rained down in sandy springs, that it would be sticky central. Normally my car likes to grip fiercly in the dry-- but tonight it was all slide and smoke! I was actually caught completely off guard when I made my FOERST attempt because I was sliding like crazy despite minimal effort to get it that way.
Now that easy sliding is attainable, I need to focus on controlling it. I can't wait to go back out [tomorrow after the movie anyone?:] and hopefully grab some footage!
Anyhow, I'm just really happy that the suspension work is paying off tenfold, and wanted to share:)
