my god fellas you can't be scared to have some fun with your cars. I drift my alero all the time on met or dry pavement. its fun and i haven't done a thing in the matter of harm to my car.

Grow some balls and have some fun!

Grow balls?

No Problems?

I guess you'll grow common sense after your problems start

^^^ What he said.

Drift Cars are like Race Cars, Purpose built suspension to take the abuse you throw at it. You couldn't race a stock alero on a track for a long period of time without it giving up the ghost.

Drifting an alero in the snow or even rain might be ok, but on dry pavement, it will start to break.

i haven't done a thing in the matter of harm to my car.

Not yet or nothing noticable yet

exactly.........and hes going to be the one in a few months with the thread title "why did my front end go one way and my car the other.....?

Yeah it will be cool to read that.

Maybe we all don't have balls, but we will still have cars

Another thing we won't have, large repair bills

or warped Lug Nuts

omg my nuts are so warped!

not really. but sounds funny.

no, i do 180s and 90 degree turns all the time on these wide dirt roads aroudn my house. dirt covered in gravel. very easy to wide the car around.

jsut wiggling the steering wheel back and forth for a bit aroudn 30 will let stuff come loose.

i did this a lot in mY GA, and nothin' happened? maybe its not as bad for your car on gravel? eh?

and whatever you want to do with you car.. do it! worst care u go sideways into a telhpone pole and total your car or something.

at least you enjoyed life eh?

I see what your saying but if you want to take care of your sh*t, like most of us (at least with our cars) then drifting is ill-advised. If you mod the car to support it then yay, otherwise nay B)

hell i have done the foward to backwards spiun on dry and a 180 uey would the best way to do a burn out is to pull the parking break and spin the front tires then relese the parking preak and leav a strip

drifting a front wheel drive car is fine just try and use someone elses, my buddy did it in his civic, let me break it down for u......

1.went way to fast
2.had no idea what he was doing
3.the parking lot he chose had a very big pole in the middle
4.no more civic

The moral of this story is this....
If youyr planning to do osmething like this make sure it is not car and if posslible make sure that it is a rice burning peice of a civic casue that just makes everythying more fun.


Stay in school

It's better on a loose surface than on dry road

Loose surface would be dirt, snow, loose gravel, mud (maybe) well you get the idea

wouldn't those trays make an ungodly horrible scraping noise? :huh?:

yeah, but it's "cool" :mellow:
