thankin you, me pal who does oval racing seems to think it would be dyer, wanting to run straight on at evry bend, but clearly if u've done it you know what u talking about.
would welding the diff be enough to learn in to begin with?
i had a V6 OMEGA few yrs back and it was so easy, went sideways in slow motion!!! gret big lumberin thing!!

Daft question?

Hi - I'm a complete ignoramus when it comes to drifting, but need to know...I have a Mitsubishi 3000GT V6 Twin Turbo (for sale). Is it a suitable drifting car? It is 4-wheel drive.:o

Are you new to Drifting?
Do you want to find out more about the sport or how to get involved, but aren't sure about asking what seem like simple questions about the basics?
This is the place for you :)
In this 'New to Drifting' forum section there is no such thing as a stupid question, so ask away and we'll do our best to give you a sensible helpful answer about getting started :thumbs:
Cheers :)

New to drifting

Hi everyone im new to drfiting just about to buy myself an e36 bmw 318? any tips on what to do to it once i have bought it ? thanks, Faniel
 
Hello all, does anyone know if there is anywhere in the south west that I can do some legal drift practice? I'm in Devon so its a bit of a mission to get to Santa pod!

I am a complete beginner, I have just about mastered roundabouts but its no exactly safe or legal so I am dieing to get to a drift day!!
 
Thanks mate!

I was planning on going to the one at Smeatharpe today but they cancelled it! Bridgewater isn't to far so I will try and get to the next one for sure.

Double post :rolleyes:

If you want a car buy a £500 Sierra and weld the diff. That will be enough to get you started.
