is getting into drifting as easy and cheap in America as it is in Japan? It initially got so popular in Japan because it was kind of like the poor man's circuit racing
just bought an AE101 for 9k, talked him down
basically a better newer AE86
Drifting by itself is not a sport
>just bought an AE101
>wants to drift
this is b8
>>15124174
This is b8
What kind of driveshaft are you running op? Do you even have a welded rear diff?
>>15124251
Nah man. I hoped to come here for advice and how to get started. I've been poking questions here and there but mostly been ignored. Do people here even do anything with their cars? Do they own cars?
>ae101
>drift
>drifting is poor mans circuit racing
poor bait
good luck drifting in your FF shitbox
>>15124293
>>15124305
>>15124174
You realize you can drift FF right? Or are the teens just making their last shitposts before bed?
>>15124293
>drifting is poor mans circuit racing
How can you even refute this? He's right. That's literally the reason it got popular. It gave poor youths a chance.
>>15124320
sure you cant thats why I wished you good luck
>>15124340
(You)
>>15124112
Grow up.
>>15124385
What a depressing pillock you are
>>15124112
It seems pretty easy. I don't do it myself but I've seen the drift kids at the race tracks doing their shit on a section that we aren't racing on or on the skidpad or pits. Wide range of cars, lots of shitboxes with welded diffs, lots of shitboxes with LS swaps, and a few riced the fuck out decent cars. Looks like its basically autocross but sideways from what I've seen, probably pretty fun and cheap.
>>15124418
Are you saying you're better?
>>15124401
>Pillock
Yeah because breaking the law and putting others at risk is so fucking fun isn't it?
>>15124447
Wut. Are you looking for things to get upset about?
>>15124335
It's more expensive and harder on cars than circuit racing.
>>15124448
yes
>>15124448
>drifting means you do it on the public street
are you retarded
>>15124112
Waitwaitwait...
Wasn't the 86 the last rwd corolla?
9k for a fwd corolla?
Mate...
>>15124506
Yes, it does.
>>15124467
sure drift cars get bashed around a bit its definitely not more expensive
>>15124112
>driving your car sideways-ist is a sport
rallycross, autocross or just turn your keys in for a bus pass and don't let the door hit you on the way out
>>15124541
>A motorsport that is more abusive on the cars clutch gearbox and engine is cheaper than normal racing.
4/10 you got a reply from me.
>>15124530
its not even the good one
>>15124578
It's really not more expensive though, and those things aren't supposed to be made of glass anyway, do you know anything about what you're talking about?
>>15124112
>Basically a better newer AE86
Naw m8. You can ass drag it, but it won't drift
>>15124596
>when the literally who benchracer tries to pretend he knows more about drifting than the people who made it
>>15124614
You made drifting? That's pretty neat
>>15124621
(You)
You better of gotten a 20v 4A-GE Silvertop with that FF piece of shit
>>15124633
>I have no argument so I'm just going to back away
Its okay friend, enjoy your corolla
>>15124648
>I have no argument so I'm just going to back away
Here's your (You) friend, buh-bye
Let's all laugh as OP slowly realize he blew his budget
Sorry OP, you can't drift an FF, it's physical impossible to achieve a drift. You can powerslide but that's WAY different than drifting.
>>15124667
Stay mad desu
>>15124695
why would I be mad? at least my shitbox is RWD and can actually pull off a drift if I wanted to.
>>15124703
So can I bro
>>15124695
He's correct. There is no such thing as FF drifting, it just doesn't exist.
Putting the handbrake and letting off the throttle so powerslide isn't a drift, neither is the lift-off oversteer you get in your shitbox.
>>15124711
Drifting is drifting
>>15124709
Well I did all I could to try and inform you that you had wrong information. It's now up to you to do research if you truly want to know how to become a good drifter.
Else going back and forth here won't solve anything except making you seem like an obvious troll.
>>15124721
Explain in your own terms on how a drift is achieved and the basic physics behind it.
>>15124729
K
I think I've worked it out for myself, thanks.
>>15124742
Drifting is drifting
>>15124729
it's b8 dude just hide the thread
>>15124756
its astonishing that you people get this pissed off about drivetrains
>>15124755
Do you really have nothing better to do with your life than shitpost?
This is sad man. I tried to humor you and have a discussion but you can't even put the effort into having a troll-y discussion with me. You're such a fat sack of failure that you're too lazy to even troll thoroughly.
Think about that.
>>15124789
That's nice man.
>>15124755
>Powersliding is drifting
>Losing control and going into a barrier is drifting
>Burning out is drifting
You're a fuck.
>>15124802
No man
Drifting is drifting
>>15124802
>>15124789
He already explained what it is. if you still can't figure out what drifting is, then s m h at you.
>>15124826
K
why does this obvious b8 thread have so many replies? /o/ likes to whine about lack of moderation but holy shit you retards deserve it for bumping such shit
>>15124867
Maybe because it's an actual thread about a motor sport that you decided to shit up and destroy because you can't handle different methods.
>>15124867
sometimes its funny to have a shitpost discussion about stupid shit but this OP is so lame all he does is post autistic 3 word replies
at least he could start talking about how honda has all the best drifter cars or some shit, i mean come on apply yourself
>tfw i specifically bought a fwd car specifically to drift
you guys are so autistic
>>15124905
there you go, now you're trying
but you fucking suck at trolling so just stop and fuck off
>it's a "let's just shit post the thread like mad and accuse op of b8" episode
>>15124914
its not trolling, im >>15124766
you people are acting completely bonkers literally over what wheels are driven
and you're trying to restrict and apply rules to DRIFTING?
sorry but it triggers me and people like you ruin the sport and western car culture
>>15124847
"with front wheel power vehicles its not a drift because you cant power through it(the turn) unless its just to avoid spinning and then its only going to be applying temporary power before you straighten up. but i think most people have agreed lift off oversteer is fun - just not really drifting as we know it." Keiichi Tsuchiya
ok
>>15124943
I drift not because it is a quicker way around a corner but the most exciting way - Keiichi Tsuchiya
>>15124952
>that means it's drifting
ok
>>15124958
Drifting is drifting
>>15124964
Drifting can mean anything apparently, it just cannot involve FWD so says the person who invented drifting.
>>15124952
Literally "MOST PEOPLE AGREE ITS FUN" and then posts an -exciting- ethos reason, man...it sure is summer.
>>15124985
Listen man, here.
Drifting is drifting
Across all ideology, across all stigma, across all cars.
Drifting is drifting
>>15124992
>>15125003
Irony
>>15125012
I'm sorry, I don't see it; unless you're trolling.
Then I have this for you
See
>>15124789
Other than that, you're being redundant by wasting time...to waste time, I....I guess it is summer.
Whatever the case may be, with that post; you pretty much acknowledge FWD sliding isn't drifting. This false mentality having a safe haven is silly unless it's acknowledged as an opinion.
:^)

kekorino desu famalam
>>15125051
You go girl.
>>15125051
Yeah it's gotten ridiculous at this point, I don't even have an AE101 (who the fuck would buy that for 9k). But I am looking for advice on FF dori and thought I'd look for porn shots of the car while I'm here.
>>15125047
>>15125070
>>15125077
What does this have to do with drifting?
>>15125077
This has everything to drifting.
>>15125070
>2016
>coming to /o/ for more than WUT CAR DO I BUY
what did you expect
ae101 is underrated though i have no pictures
what do you drive by the way? drift much yet
>>15125086
>this assmad
>>15125102
Oh no...I'm so mad, Japan is beating America in this particular post or any post like I give a shit because I love both countries.
Again, this has -everything- to do with drifting.
>>15125112
>this assmad
>>15125102
>assmad
I drive a stock fn2 civic, and you're sending me pics of a civic out-performing cars I've never driven nor seen before...
>>15125100
I drive a 1991 EF Civic hatch, I love it. I'm still setting it up properly and to ensure it doesn't fall apart. I've gotten a bit hectic though, it's different from RWD but not in a negative way. Actually, I'd say I'm having more fun.
>>15125126
Uhm, ok.
Your pointless picture is right and you achieved a grey area of significance for yourself in a dispute I didn't know I was having, or even had regarding the information on your picture.
>>15125143
>>15125155
>this assmad
>>15125159
The civic is the fastest car in the world.
Observe, I'll yet for a reason that is defined only in another land of time and space....be called mad again.
>>15125159
lol dude you gotta calm down, it's not good to have high blood pressure.
>>15125183
>projecting this hard
>>15125146
sounds awesome
>tfw MX5
it's so boring
AE101 is 100x better than any AE86
Just fucking buy like a 6cyl E36 with LSD for <4k if you want to drift
>>15124448
>Breaking the law is automatically bad
>Breaking the law means you are actually putting someone at risk
Found the retard.
>>15124112
>Drifting an AE101
Maybe a handbrake power side, but you won't be able to hold sustained drifts.
>>15125159
Funny thing is, Honda doesn't even use that ring time because they ripped out bits of interior, stereo components, air conditioner, seats, and ran it on prototype tires.
>>15124112

git gud you unoriginal losers
>>15128343
1. Why would you respond to a bait poster?
2. why would you bump this? This was on like page 5.
>>15124320
With enough cafeteria trays, you can drift anything.
>>15128481
>>15128433
How the fuck can you people still be posting b8 in a thread 24 hours later?
Why can't you just let people post in peace?
>>15128487
I browse catalog view. Why are you asking me, when I'm telling people not to respond to bait?
>>15125102
>this era of 'vette versus a brand new car
As expected desu. Civic versus camaro was better.
