Default footage of drifting at VIR

sick, awesome, crazy.
i need more horsepower lol... and a e brake, and power steering
the hardest part is the main big turn, its a 3rd gear drift, and i dont really have the ass for it, and that wall is scary, but i tried it a few times

still need to get a feel for the course, everyone is so much better lol. i had the slowest car there

i woudlnt call it talent haha... im in the basic learning stages, ive only drift, summit point... i go there every month (and some circle track) im so used to those road courses... ive never really been that fast as fast as that long sweep turn is, and i saw a miata slam into the wall etc. and all that keeps racing into my mind and i have only a moment to think... once i go back, ill get it down better for sure

and get on it! if you havent noticed the track is vacant!

Believe me I would love to. I have no experience at all with drifting though. Like I would like to start in a large open lot or something like that before I would try a track. Also there doesn't seem to be a track anywhere less than 4-5 hours away from me. I'd also like to save a couple more thousand before I start because I'm scared I will destroy my car lol.
Sorry to thread jack. Seriously though the video looks amazing. Hopefully I will be catching up with you soon!

Driftwater is like 1 hour from you, it is wide open, and is a great warm up for VIR. It is a lot more fun then VIR in my opinion because you can actually link the entire 1.1 mile course if you get good enough.



David - when you get yourself into a car that actually drives nicely (ie power + powersteering + ebrake) you aren't going to know what to do with yourself. Seriously, lol, I thought I was going to shoot myself in the face sliding in my NA S14, lol.
