Anyone here drift? You know who you are.....and know what im talking about. Ive tried drifting my Lighting, with pretty good success, but need some better, more windy roads. I hope this post doesnt go into oblivion.....calling all drifters....

 

lots of lookers, no drifters, or posters for that matter. for all of you who dont know what im talking about (which seems to be alot of ya) type in "initial d" in a google search and see what ya get.

 

I just try to stick the corners and go faster and smoother around them.

 

hug the corners, gas and brake at the same time....and a little Initial D music in the background and you cant go wrong. dont stop the music......nice to know someone else out there in the f150 online community appreciates some good anime. good ol' tofu........

 

initial d is a good anime but drive an ae86 if u wanna be like takumi

 

Drifting is more for show than performance. I'd rather keep the vehicle tucked in and make some nice lines

 

initial d is the most ricey game in the world


its possibly the least realistic thing ever


the fools from team yellow bird-they go to my hs-have phat battles in thatlike its some sort of real life thing


ur better off watching the fast and the fuious for tips lol

 

"*before someone attempts to spread their infinite wisdom to me about drifting not being the fastest away around the track.. DUH...*"

yes, I like drifting alot... I do it in both my L and Cobra on road courses... I do NOT do it for show though, I just think its fun to do. The L will drift very nice, get all 4 tires drifting is a rush (to me atleast) The Cobra REALLY drifts well

 

OK I'm a little retarded. WTF is drifting??? Sliding your car/truck around a corner? Now maybe I'm getting old, but if thats right, I can see it in a mustang, but I don't think I want my truck doing four wheel slides....I like the shiney side up!!!!! And what are you asking about, a video game, or actually driving?? Damn I must be getting old!















This past spring my good buddy "drifted" his 92 f150 flareside into a gaurdrail!!! Flipped over mid air, the roof never hit. He has several broken ribs and a really cool scar on his arm to show for it. He remembers nothing but making an "Uuuuffffffff!" noise at some point in the ride. I don't call that fun!

 

nfs underground for drifting

 

Don't feel bad, im 21 and i don't know what the hell they are talking about. I'll bet the moderators doing the thinker pose trying to figure out if this thread should be moved or not.

I think they mean sliding around corners like you said, but beats me.

 

Here's a good video of drifting shows:

Go to http://216.239.57.104/search?q=cache...hl=en&ie=UTF-8

on the left side is a red engine pic, above it is "Team_Drift.wmv", it's 26.5MB big. Very awesome video.

However, I don't like Initial D or much of the "drifting" scene. It's just like drag racing here. People are really into it and have great car setups, then there are the horrible movies made about it and the subcultures that evolve around it (ie, TF&TF).

 

Post it as a link???
