Whether or not the guy was trying to drift is debatable... :rotfl

what suprises me most about these dipshits is that none of theyre friends do s***.
ive had pals wreck (no drift, just accidents) as we rush to them. check them out, get them out of their cars, put hands on it and get it out of the way and to a safe spot. not laugh or continue filming while our friend is screwed.
this is my biggest problem with the younger crowd today, no f*** sense, more worried about whats cool or getting something entertaining on video than the car or the driver.
i mean damn, if your friend crashes for any reason, even if he was being a complete idiot, get to work on it, laugh later.

Agree!

However I don't feel obligated helping the people that try to show off and drive recklessly then expect help afterward.
My 2 cents.

You wanna see it done right, then go to the track. Otherwise, it's simply done wrong.

Glad I saw this thread today, made me laugh a lot. Sad to see how many people think they know how to control their cars.

Well I think that's the point of this thread. It doesn't tend to go "right" very often. In fact you're putting yourself and others in a lot of danger. Clearly you see how people "think" they know how to drift, do a burn out, or fail skidding in the snow, but tend to wreck, or flip their cars. Consider how the people driving and see these accidents feel? I typically am never excited to see an accident in person, and more so when it comes down to a driver inability to drive, or because they were showing off.

Drive safe now kids.

OK, I'm done being your father now.

I've actually seen some actual clean footage though of some togue drifting and street. If you notice alot of these kids that are crashing are starting their drifts late there lines are horrible just plain newbs Learning on how they think they can getthere car sideways. Now take some drivers who have experience in drifting And let them do some street and they'll actually put it down. Just IMO

well regardless these idiots are giving everyone here a bad image and are most importantly endangering innocent people by trying to drift on public streets... i made this thread to express why it is simply a better solution to "put it down" on a track rather than on your neighborhood streets..

Exactly the ones who "try" to drift are definitely giving a bad name to scene. However crews such as Risky devil that are "putting it down" on the track so hard are also making
Some of the sickest street videos I've seen. I'm sure alot of
People know of these Guys right?

So also, you don't enjoy watching someone drifting their
Local togue? Cuz I thinks it's suck watching so
Robe drift the togue. I love the track and that's where I learned the most, just clarifying that cuz I'm
Def. Not an 16 yearold kid trying to drift

Not the street but a closed parking lot. My car, NOT me driving.

You and your friends fail at life. I remember there was a time when I can go out in my 240 and drive around all day long without worrying the police. Now jack@sses like you and your friends gives the police a legitimate reason to pull me over. It doesn't matter that it's in a parking lot. It's done out in public, videos are posted on youtube, and cops knows that dumb@ss kids driving 240s are doing this.

They can hate all they want, it wasnt me driving. I wouldnt have done that myself. It was done before the car became mine. I know its not worth it to do it on the street, no matter what the skill level. One simple little mistake and your taking the bus for a while.

This is nothing new to police. I can still drive my car all day and the cops dont even give me a second glance. As long as you follow the rules of the road that should keep the cops of your back, unless your car is obnoxiously loud or something. I live just 2 blocks away from the police station and I never have to worry about a thing. I dont agree with the fact that a few dumbasses can cause trouble for the rest of us.

I apologize if you had nothing to do with this, but I don't like the reputation that a lot of people have given 240s now a days. It pisses me off to get labeled as a street racer or street drifter.

I know this is nothing new to the police, but it gives the police and the state more reasons to crack down on car enthusiasts. You might not think that a few can ruin it for the rest of us, but let one person drift their 240 into a nice little innocent girl in a nice little neighborhood. The cops will be tearing 240s up left and right and these videos will make the case for the government to pour millions of dollars into these crackdown. I have other means of transportation, but a lot of teenagers and college students can't say the same.

Believe me, I know. I lived 23 years in CA. Been harrassed by the cops a lot through out those years too. I didn't realize how bad it was to be a car enthusiast in CA until I moved out.
