Whatever makes you feel better about your girth.

315s in back are wide? There are cars that stuff more than that up front.

I see so many people smash up their cars at circle track drift events. Really not a good place to learn drift in the first place. You could tell from the way he was driving that he didn't have the slightest idea of how to actually drift, but the track owners and event organizers almost never care about this since it's…

This was my thought too. These only seem to exist in modified form, which is probably good since they weren't all that great from the factory.

Somehow missed that first post. Blaming kinja. Somewhat related - if you're having loin-related difficulties I've been told by numerous awkward old men at the track that my built ls7 seems to remedy the issue.

what are these loins you speak of?

People that are too large for the seat they bought and enter your personal space. If you're too wide to fit between your armrests, buy a bigger seat. Or buy two seats. I remember when Kevin Smith threw a shit fit over southwest kicking him off of a flight since he was only able to buy one seat and he couldn't fit in…

if you're not sideways before the normal turn in, it's not drifting

don't look a gift horse carcass in the mouth

More of an exercise in finding the right tires than anything else. I DD and autocross a C6Z that's making 570whp NA. With a set of sticky tires it doesn't have any issue putting that power down even in 1st. When my R888s were near-corded it'd spin at over 100mph. With a set of new bfg rivals on, it hardly spins in…

It's not any more of a sport, but I would argue that F1 is a higher level of Motorsport than circle track. Largely because of the greater demand for adaptability (track conditions, tire strategies, rule set), lower margin for error, course complexity, and the fact that the driver just has to do more and faster.

So she comes from the factory with a fart can? Or was that from a queef cannon?

Probably his last shred of dignity.

I would too. But that's because I'd rather be driving something raw. Refined and precise, but still raw. There's something exhilarating about reining it all in and getting it to do exactly what it's supposed to. Big difference in the way a car feels when it's relying on mechanical setup instead of electronic aids.

Most people at the track want to be driving a car that allows them to go fast while maximizing driver engagement. While you might enjoy your 3rd pedal, a lot of people see that as a distraction and inefficiency. Getting to row your own at the expense of slower shifts and not being able to leftfoot brake puts you in…

The GT3 is built for going fast around a track, where having a 3rd pedal is a hindrance. If you'd rather cruise around town in a slower car, row your own, and just enjoy the ride for what it is then they offer a carrera with the 7spd manual.

I've been dailying (and auto crossing) a modded C6Z06. After driving it through a few northern Illinois winters, I've decided that it's time to bite the bullet and pick up a winter beater like a responsible person. I want something that's spacious, has AWD, and still has a warranty.

They do that at grassroots type events. Definitely not as common as individual competitions.

"Why is drifting a solo sport, anyway? "

Do you not care because it's CR or because it's not about a ford?
