Well after practising loads and loads on open car parks ive felt confident enough to try it on an island now :D

Not too bad i dont think considering its my first real attempt tonight :p

Oh and its on a retail park thats dead at night time, not in the middle of the town or anythin before any of the goodie goodies start flaming me....

I agree, I tried it in the S13 on a car park (11pm, empty retail park) and it just wasn't as easy as it looks lol. Not tried it again since, I think I'll stick to learning to drive track style instead.

Just be careful, the police are cracking down on people posting videos on you tube of them mucking around on public roads. Especially as it wouldn't be difficult to find you from your youtube name.

I'd love to have a go though and can imagine it's not as easy as it looks!

whats low down torque gotta do with it... i have never ever ever heard a drift car going around a corner at 2krpm lol infact most of the time they are banging off the limiter lol

s2000 has a similar length wheel base as a ae86... they drift fine...

mr ben r even stuck a s2000 lump in a ae86... that drifts well too i have seen proof lol

Thats professional drifting where you got space and safety to clutch kick and handbrake turn.

200s only need a touch of boost to get the wheelspinning and start drifting.AE86s drift buy driving fast into bends. and a s2k engine in a ae86 works because the hachi is so light so ner LOL.

you can clutch kick anywhere... u can handbrake wherever lol... if your brave enough, you can spin the wheels in a s2000 with the throttle...

I had 4 passengers in my old e36 320i when I did my first controlled power oversteer,.. Was easier than I thought it would be and really predictable.

I've never lift-off oversteered in my Clio. Anyone done this to good effect?

^ indeed!

I know the owner of Trampdrift and they are getting all the s**t for it, especially when there is no black bmw known with trampdrift on the site!

all a fuss over nothing, although the fact this vid shows other road users is a bit stupid to be honest, coupled with this thread and all the pics of your car Dan you are ripe for a hammering to be honest, get it off asap and say no more about it.
