Razorwing Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I ass drag my 2000 Altima when ever i get a *safe* chance. it snowed here in VA not too long ago and i took the altima and my other drift crew for a little "dori, dori" Once I figured out how the altima reacts to the ice and snow. it was cake getting around town when none of the roads had been plowed. the key element to safe ass draging in the snow is good all-season tires. I have the Pirelli P6's and they rock. Lift the E-brake and as soon as i let it down, i regain traction!! I was leaving my neighborhood for work one morning and some dork parked his SUV about 3 feet from the curb so when i rounded the corner i about to hit his SUV... "Lift to Drift E-Brake" and i dori, dori-ed around his crap car!! ... drifting does save the day!! 585438583[/snapback] awesome MOVE! *sarcasm* :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR_Candyman Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 I noticed somewhere along this thread where somebody said that FF drifting requires massive e-brake knowledge and that ff drifting isn't really drifting, its ass dragging. Whoever has said those things are very misinformed. You can FF drift. It doesn't USUALLY mke sense to do it, but you can FF drift. It's just a simple four wheel drift, of course with minimal counter-streer because the front wheels are the driving wheels. Using the e-brake? man, that's pathetic. Only very, very new people to drifting actually use the e-brake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protomor Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 E-brake drifting is OK. its not that hard to learn and its sorta useful. the problem with it is that you lose momentum, you have to have alot of speed to make a good drift and the longer you hold down the brake the more speed you lose. Its fun tho. Ive done both and when you want to slide, youll do anything to slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason is that the point of sliding your car around is done with a rear wheel drive. You can acess your power to your rear and making it to break traction. Now how can you break traction on a FF? Hence the name FRONT WHEEL DRIVE, the power ONLY goes to the FRONT WHEELS. The only way you can ' ass drag ' your car is only hand brake. But there are certain other cases where you can break traction by weight shifting, but you will end up in a roll before you start to break traction.

I already said 4 wheel drifts are very possible (I do them all the time in my avenger and daytona shelby) in FF cars. Ass dragging is not quite drifting, but close. The pros don't use the e-brake. It takes too long, and is bad for the brakes. Not to mention you can't retain control nearly as well as a well placed foot brake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

protomor Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 drifting teams for video games... eh.... pros DO use e-brakes. you use it when youre in a drift but you arent getting enough angle, just yank the E real quick and blam, more angle.

MR_Candyman Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 pros don't use the e-brake (unless they're REALLY screwed). It's a good way to compensate for pretty much anything you could havve screwed up, but if you're good you'll know a good way to get out of most things without using it. I'm not against using it in emergencies, just against people using it and thinking they're a good drifter. In my eyes, you're not drifting unless it's an inertial drift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

protomor Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 lol. theres MANY ways of initiating a drift (as stated in the drift bible) all are valid and none of them make it not drifting. a drift is a drift is a drift, each technique has its own pros and cons and are good in different situations. some are just easier to learn than others, like e-brake drifting, that doesnt make it any less useful. I personally cant do it because my e-brake is so weak. I need to tighten that bitch. eh. clutch kick works fine for me now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirCasper6 Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Drifting!! Sweet. A bunch of teens got arrested in the Wally World parking lot here for that. Too stupid to go to an unpopulated location. I've tried it a few times in my Civic (you know the one) It was fun... Need new tires before I do it again. You still have that old Sentra? I bet you could flip that Bi@tch. If you still have it I'd be surprised though. What's up Jeffery bro's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
