Today's Lesson in Drifting:

If it's your FOERST time drifting, a 97 Supra turbo MIGHT not be your best starter car.

I had a bunch of fun today at Cordele, but it was friggin' impossible to get that car to behave the way I wanted it to, haha. Why was I driving a Supra instead of the 240? Because my turbo decided to blow an oil seal yesterday during final preparation. So my friend decided to step in and provide a car so I wouldn't feel like I wasted $$ on an entrance fee.

I didn't get much seat time (only 6 runs) since we were swapping out every 2 runs, but I think I'm still gonna have another go at it whenever the 240 gets on the road again.

Haha, that's because of the brakestand burnouts and leaving in 2nd.

I sucked ass, but I had a ball out there. After we saw everyone getting soaked with their windows down, Jim said "We're leaving the windows up and turning on the A/C" hahaha.

I assume you were in the Lotus? I imagine your steering wheel was rather slippery.

I'll give Bandy until tomorrow to show up and post the rest, haha. I don't wanna steal his thunder.

And so y'all get an idea of how much water was out there...
