The sad part is, it's not just the 240, ricer, or modified car people that are doing this, it's just about everybody. Whether it's the guy who turboed his car, the dude who just bought a corvette, or some kid with a Kia, it comes down to maturity and judgement. If you don't have the restraint to NOT pull stunts on the street, it doesn't matter what you drive.

So also, you don't enjoy watching someone drifting their

Def. Not an 16 yearold kid trying to drift
Sounds to me that you support illegal street drifting. I don't care what qualifications one has when it comes to driving skills. I don't care if it's Daijiro Yoshihara himself. There's no excuse for putting "other" peoples lives at risk. I enjoy watching the sport, and I enjoy watching the videos that are made on "closed" roads, in which they are blocked and supervised utilizing all appropriate measures for safety. I enjoy NASCAR, but I don't exceed 170mph and weave in and out of traffic on the main roads. I like professional drag racing, but I don't go light to light with some other moron who thinks he's got a 9-second machine but lacks ability to control it. I've had friends killed for lack of better judgement on the street. And it definitely does take only a handful of bad apples to spoil the bunch. If you're not 16, please mature in your thinking and help make it a safe experience for everyone. My motto is "take it to the track or don't come back". ... Waiting on the "hate".

Theres no need for there to be any, most people, including myself, would agree with you. This thread was created for the purpose of making fun of the people who where too cheap to take it to the track and ultimately had their cars pay for it. Besides if it wasnt for these guys how else would we score cheap car parts on EBay? :gapteeth:
Regardless of what you and I do, in the eyes of the police our cars will always fall into the category of street racers. Like you say though just conduct yourself maturely on the street and youll be fine. I get a kick out of these dumbass kids on the street trying to race everybody and their mother on the way to the grocery store, whenever they rev their engine at me I just :nono: and :chuckle:

Nice car by the way :dblthumb:

The following is a satire, and should not be taken seriously. This is not an endorsement of illegal street activity of any kind. If you are offended by the following satirical statement, please refer to my signature. Copying, without the approved written consent of myself, is a federal crime, and will result in many LOLs.

Mayn, you ain't gotta be all hatin' and shizzit! If u gotz da skillz, then you gotz to show yo stuff! I take my ride to da muddafuggin street, and drive it like I stole it! If that meens driftin through the lite, doin 100 with a full shot a nos, then you jus sit theyre an watch! I watched fast n furious so many times I got dis shizzit down! Ive burned throo so many tires in the parkling lot of my hi scholl practising so I CAN drift in teh street! If the pigs don like it, they can eat my smoke!



That being said, if you insist on doing this anyway, please buy another model of car beforehand. Otherwise, you drive our insurance rates up.

Hey Frank E nice tire sparks lol, I've been there before. Also your boy got really close to poppin that curb a couple times :ohno:

Street drifting should be kept on a track. Ive only actually tried drifting once on a backstreet and spunout, only a few feet from a fire hydrant and/or mailbox. But the thing is that people will always do it. I never street race much less drift because 1, my car is slooow, but more importantly I understand the risk. I cant hurt my baby!

I don't think I can vote for this, when I got my S13, it was my first decently fast turbo'ed car, I drove it like it was a Lexus LS460, all cautious and always wiping her down.
I drove my other 240's and a Civic with so much abuse compared to this champagne S13 I have right now, I guess its because the others weren't really modded and this one has some money thrown down.

My black one, it should be making 600ish to the wheels, I doubt I will be driving that thing any crazier then I did with my champagne S13.
Just saying.

Well, sparing details of legalities, it is safe to say that anyone who builds/buys a performance car will want to romp on it a bit; it's a risk we as enthusiasts take. The difference is respecting the rights and wrongs of safety for oneself and others inside and out of the car ... doesn't matter how good of a driver one thinks one is. Public roads are not for racing/drifting (.) If it's one's own personal land, or a closed sanctioned event, go for it. :yesnod Other than that, all 'street' drifting is gone wrong in my opinion. :whistle:

I was that dumbass 17 year old at one point (even though I'm still 17)
I though it would be cool to try out my new ebrake button gymkhanad my a** into a gymstop sign. I never knew how easy it was to just lose control but now I know. I'm amazingly lucky it was a stop sign and not a ped sitting on the bench next to it regardless of whether or not it was 2 in the morning. So seriously take it from me, don't even try it on the track till you've at least had a lesson or two.

also not to mention the legal consequences...

back when i was 16 i got caught street racing, luckily i was a minor and recieved like 5 maditory classes, 2000+ in fines, and 2 years probation, and 40 community servie hours... it wasnt fun and i learned my lesson... for the most part

i imagine a cop rolling up on you " putting it down" on your local spot would be similar

I don't find the videos funny at all. What are these idiots thinking? They cannot see who is coming around the curves, since both were blind curves. What if they hit some guy on a motorcycle? Normally I'm not against street shenanigans, but these fools make me sick!!!
