Drifting for a month now....... What do you think?

Since I got my 240sx a month ago I have been practicing my drifts. Tell me what you think and how I can improve, also I havent used the ebrake much yet, but I hear you can use it to correct your drift angle? My car has: ka24, 5speed, kyb AGX, lower springs, intake, Catback, LSD, Volk Gramlights, HIDS Kouki front end.



Thanks

Nice, I was playing AC/DC's, "It's a long way to the top if you want to rock'n'roll" at the time.

wet pavement...

well, i tried a little drifting today, rough pavement is hard to do it on... the whole car was sliding all over, more like front wheel sliding... had to burn off some rubber since i got new rims and tires.

So you love understeer!!!!

Do you have LSD??? If not good luck with that drifting.

So when you get new tires you have to burn them off??

no.....

I got new rims and tires, so i had to burn off the rubber from the old ones. no lsd either, for a bit of the semi-drift it was more like one legging... fun though.
i think if it was a smoother lot if wouldn't been better?
