Mn Needs To Get It's Act Together

[SlowWhite]

I get an email from my brother about 5 minutes ago - bragging of coarse about his Weekend fun, and the local car scene.


Here's his pictures of him at the Drift event they had over the weekend:

Pay special attention to the Yellow M3 and the GT2 porsche - some of you who have been around for a while might remember a certain video that had both these car in them that made quite an impression. - both of which my brother got to ride in over the weekend the little bitch!


here's a pictures of my brother and a few people. Can you guys tell me who they are or what is so significant about them? - hint see above comments

[SlowWhite]

It's to large of a file but I believe it's pict 675 or something

[Jacek]

Drifting is for homos.

[SlowWhite]

Yep the Gumball 3000 film cars - that's the porsche that was doing the top speed runs. And the 600hp Yellow M3 is the film car.


Steve you know you've drifted a corner or 2 in your day.

[Jacek]

[Kougar]

I haven't gotten into it much. Some of my asian friends in HS were obsessed with it. Around uni, all the ricers croud around a stock 240sx thinking that the car is a drift machine. I think it would be bad ass to smoke your tires around a turn but only due to power. I think it is gay because most people use an ebrake or something. Still fun on PS2 though.

Drifting is Gay if your only into 1/4 mile.


Drifting become fun/something you do when you get into Road Racing/SCCA/Rally . Hell even 1/4 mile, everytime an AWD Spins it's tire and your rear end moves to one side or the other. That's drifting. (even if it's only for a second)


I personally had a ton of Fun drifting in the snow/Rain this winter. And I all know some of you have been offroading at some point or another so stop being hipocrits!


the M3 is now 600hp.

Drifting is total domination, however i suppose i like all things that have to do with cars. Well i hate nascar god damn honkey!! as for drifting damn right it needs to make its way into MN. Intital D................................ well maybe not :stick:

[john]

I think that it CAN be fun but is gay. I dont call whipping shitties in the snow the same as drifting. When I picture drifting, I picture a drift event (something at a track) or some asshole fucking around in residential neighborhoods trying to get his car to slide.

[CVD]

Drifting is something real pavement racers only ever do to bail themselves out when they fuck up a corner. Drifting as a sport is lame.

[A//// Guy]

Yea I agree with CVD. People in rally and roadracing only drift when they are going to fast and need to clear a corner or something.

Doing 360s in the snow is different than drifting to me becuase it is fun. Purposely beating on your car when your already flying down a track or whatever doesnt seem like fun to me unless it wasnt my car
