Im sorry but who cares about FF drifting. Im so tired of people even bring anything about it up.

Silvia-S14 · 12-17-2003, 09:11 PM

Hi jdmdrewS14,

Thank you for your reply. However, I don't quite agree with your attitude about FF drifting. As a drifting enthusiast myself, it is important to continue to educate myself regardless of FF or FR drifting in order to improve my drifting. Anyway, that's my opinion.

monkeymagic · 12-17-2003, 10:07 PM

at one ponit in time we are all going to have to accept ff drift weather we like it or not.

If you guys are gonna put down FF drifting you better have some skills cuz I know Kyle and he can hang with FR no problem.

fsr · 12-18-2003, 06:32 AM

I don't understand why this is still a topic. Yes you can drift a ff car. Hell, you can even drift a bus if you wan't to.

With a ff car you can set up a drift upon corner entry, just like with a fr car. And with power, front wheel grip and skill you can even hold it for a while. But you can never get the exits right. You will never get enough speed and momentum to keep up with a fr car or even mr/rr car. Therefore it will be nothing more than a ff drift, and a ff drift is slower and quite boring to watch.

Sorry, but it's not a mather of opinion, it's a matter of physics. I've raced ff cars in both circuit racing and rallying, and drifted the sh*t out of them, but I still wouldn't choose one for drifting competitions as I would loose. Simple as that.

On the other hand. If you own a ff car as your only car, and you can't afford to get another one, then it'll have to do for practice

Demonstang3pnt8 · 12-19-2003, 06:12 AM

lemme brush these haterz off....... i am the madd @$$ dragging king!!!!

its all about the super sport 'scort!

seriously though, i am only 17 so i cant afford another FR since i f*cked up my mustangt so i have a ford escort lx sedan sport with a 5-speed and it is the slowest POS in the world but itll have to do till im 18 and on my own.

so right now i try my hardest to drift the sh*t outta it.

and its not that boring to watch or perform, or to even be the passenger because as long as its sideways...its all gravy.

but ur right, i wouldnt enter a contest with it....lloll

I have great footage on DV tape, I have to find a way to transfer it to a digital format to post on line.

turbomigo · 12-19-2003, 02:31 PM

The new drift tengoku video vol. 18. you can order them on pacificrim.com

crxofdoom · 12-19-2003, 07:03 PM

i dont know if you would call this drifting, but it is just me messing around in a parking lot a while ago.

WOW, that was awsome. I didn't know they could drift so well! Great video, dude!

Nah, just pulling your leg...

But it's as good as it get's.on a high speed curcuit where you only drift one corner at the time a ff car can be quite spectacular to drift, but on tight corners it's just way to slow, right? But still, a good attempt

reds13 · 12-21-2003, 06:53 PM

heres a good video of crappy little FF cars drifting at decent speed, nowhere near a good FR car but drifting all the same (all sidebraking)

Agian, those cars are NOT FF. Its a Turbo Subaru REX, AWD.

reds13 · 12-22-2003, 07:55 PM

there not all AWD, theres a REX Turbo in FWD too

http://www.carfolio.com/specificatio...car/?car=32945

Chas · 12-23-2003, 11:08 AM

No, im pretty sure the turbo model came in AWD only.

J-BloodAE86 · 12-23-2003, 12:00 PM
