Yes... there was a time and a place where I thought drifting the J was ridiculas... in reality, it still is. However, I have a good friend whos an AE86 guy and he decided that he could drift anything. My smart decision was to laugh and throw my keys at him. At that time he proceeded to drive my car into a parking lot and run flat out sideways...

I saw a video of someone "drifting" their J on YouTube a couple of months ago.

It looked cool, but I think the "drift" that he did & what you guys are doing is more of a power slide. Drifting (from what I understand it to be) is more than just sliding your car sideways. It takes control, finess, style, & skill.

9.8/10 for effort, though.

My buddy placed second at a DMCC event this summer. I think I am pretty aware of what drifting is

Ok; went to watch the videos again. You were right. My bad.

Still cool, though. Especially since the J wasn't meant for that.

Yea... Its not about the overall performance. It is about the fact that it happens ha ha. Its like a offensive lineman scoring an 80 yard touchdown
