Yes, it's always fun to see the big 4 door Infiniti's drifting, here's one of our own Wes (elwesso) drifting while doing his skidpad run at the recent Winged Warrior event.

Actually, thats my Custum Exhaust....

AKA removing the rear 30 lbs resontor! I did not bother redoing the entire exhaust, because its truly not wirth it when it dualies righ tnow.

Umm lol you should be sideways, but i didnt have too much room, and im a noob to drifting. my last vid i think has the best drift. Ill get some more footage.

P. also i have the cold air intake, makes the vg30 roar in the higher RPMs

I drift my J all the time..but tires are expensive, the best way to learn to drift is to do it in the snow...you will really learn how to handle that car that way. I took a set of tires to the belts drifting a round-a-bout for about 5 minutes solid, you couldn't even see the car the smoke was so thick. Next time I am out drifting I will try and get some video...keep practicing, with the LSD our cars have, once you get it out there and know how to control it the better your drifts will be - you just need more angle!

yeah, more angle and he would have been fine...maybe a bit more pedal...I know I've gotten mine completely sideways coming off of exit ramps and pulling out of parking lots when I've been playing around...done it accidently too a few times in the rain. lol

You really need to let the LSD rest for a while after you drift for a little while... Theres no way to cool the fluid, so you need to let it rest for a while!!!

Winter drifting is good to learn control and what to do when your losing control... its a lot easier to lose control on the snow than on pavement because you have no grip even if you hit the brakes and let off the gas... The rain is good to learn too because you get some grip but still can slide fairly easy.. The rain is probably better to learn, but you can really become familiar with your car that way... When i have done snow drifting I have always ice my tires up so be noted of that...

Basically if your wanting to learn, take your car in the snow.. once you can sort of get the car do sorta what you want (goes in the general direction you want, not losing control all the time), then step it up to the rain..... Pretty soon youll be doing figure 8s around lightpoles...

ALSO, dont be one of those dillweeds that drifts on the street!!! i dont care what your excuse is, dont do it... Parking lots where all you can do is screw up your car, yourself or a casual light pole is one thing..... BUt doing that crap on the road is uncalled for.....

well here in mobile snow is a foreign word. i like to take it out sometimes in the light rain (when it just finished) and the roads are still slick and have a go. it's cool like that
