Why the fcuck doesnt this thing compete in Formula D!!??

gigglesnirt · 11-25-2005, 10:11 AM

that and you need more videos of it! i love seeing this damn car get more action shots!

aaronlosey · 11-25-2005, 12:42 PM

cool vid. looks like you should start working on increasing the steering angle of the car now, as the only reason you spun in the vids is because of the shallow angle your car will let you drift at. you need some more steering angle so you can catch the car before it spins, even if you don't plan on drifting at a huge angle all the time.

Driftin180sx · 11-25-2005, 01:04 PM

Yeah it is time for some Steering angle. The car looks good and flat and stable but not enough angle and the car looks somewhat slow from counter to counter.
I love the car though . Suspension work and the car will be awesome!

dreamdrivedrift · 11-25-2005, 02:07 PM

awesome stuff, is that red 240 on KA?

Fazzne Drift · 11-25-2005, 08:01 PM

No, it's SR. His name is Tadashi from united-drift.com. There was a killer wreck that day at the track. I think everyone ended up with it on video. haha.

Fazzne Drift · 11-26-2005, 12:14 PM

thats what i have said a few times.... such a beautiful car should have a beatiful sound... not this cackly crap

santi · 11-27-2005, 01:10 AM

damn i never saw fedors crash.. fedor i guess i'll have to teach you how to tail slap walls buddy

slideways2004 · 11-27-2005, 10:11 AM

first of all, the camera man sucks. and like everybody else, the car will be awesome with some more steering angle

Fazzne Drift · 11-27-2005, 05:31 PM

The video is what makes it seem so cracky. I was at that event and it sounded mean as hell. The only things done to that car was suspension, straight piped out the side and completely stripped interior with roll cage. He does a good job for having a mildly modded car.

so the car is close to stock ecept for what you mentioned? the engine is stock cts-v?

DV19 · 11-27-2005, 07:48 PM

Not to come off like "Safety Sam" but did you notice how close everyone was standing to the cars.... even in Dado's video there was some guy standing just to the outside of the corner. Hell, the video guy nearly dropped the camera when the car came his direction hitting the wall......

Come on guys, people getting run over because of a "hung throttle" or some other "it will never get over here" accident have a way of people not having Drifting at their venues.....

Dado and his car are very cool, I hate-it for the dude who wasted his right side, but MAN that crash could have been WAY WORSE!!!!! I've been to events where people have been hurt by "freak" things.... We have to use our heads..... There's a reason they are called accidents.... nobody means for bad stuff to happen.....

Ok, I'm off my soap box now......

Silentghost · 11-27-2005, 08:56 PM

sweet, the car sounds great at full sing, but it has a red neck truck kind of sound when it idles, to me its kind of disturbing. But I love the look of that car, especially when its sideways

CrazyHawaiian · 11-28-2005, 06:21 AM

Very sweet, sounds great. But damn if having a cage is mildly modded then I must be way behind. I also think that guy standing in the middle w/ white shirt is just asking to be hit. That would definately not be allowed at my local track.

Fazzne Drift · 11-28-2005, 06:54 AM

Motor is a Stock Cts-v. But still thats what 400hp. The guy who drives it doesnt even own the car. Yeah I agree that everyone was way to close to the track. I was next to go before fedors crash and when he hit I had people jumping back on my car. I had glass and Fiberglass and even pieces of carbon fiber in my car, so that tells u how close people were.

Octagon · 11-28-2005, 08:33 AM

Maybe you guys should talk to the MSA to do some demonstration runs at Auto City during one of their Supermodified events.

They ran Auto City twice last year (once in July and once in August) and a methanol burning 468ci big block is one of the few things that could make the Caddy seem quiet.

jwoo · 11-28-2005, 11:28 AM

What up, Yeah I have a event called Drift Battle at Auto City once a year.. THis was a open drift day called SPEEDRiFT. Most the time the drivers never go on the out side bend and all a sudden they I didnt get every one out the entrance enough, but after fedor took a spill people where like got the *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored* out the way.

Oh well next event the safty rules are trippled.. and pay to run went up too.. good work boners ;-)

I would like to thank every one who did come out and was safe and had a good time.. Dado was awesome out there ! If you guys want i will make a video clip.

Black240SX · 12-03-2005, 04:47 PM

I remember that cady its nuts. Im in the video lol. Stinks that Fedor hit the wall, tho I did get a nice picture as he became one w/ the wall. It was the perfect first drifting event for me, it had lots of cars, smoke and even a crash. I can't wait till there is another event in Michigan.

Adios

jwoo · 12-04-2005, 11:46 AM

sorry to bring the thread back from the dead but wanted to update with some info on the car. It had no cage the only mods are:

Coilovers, somewhat stripped interior, intake, headers, side exhaust, dyno tuned, and lots of vinyl

HP was 370 to the wheels.

The car was not mine, Moore Cadillac from Virginia owned the car. I drove it for a full season to promote their motorsports division. Trying to work out a deal with other companies to build another one to compete in Formula D since Moore Cadillac is not interested to compete anymore. Their client base is 35 and above so for them it wouldn't work financially to compete in Formula D.

BTW Tadashi do you have more videos from that day? Would like to see more footage a little less shaky

HoosierDrifter · 02-12-2006, 10:23 AM

then wth are they gonna do with the caddy?

p.s.- is that you getting arrested on streetfire for doing donuts in front of cops in a bmw? if so... umm why?
