He track races the car with his racing seats/seatbelts and helmet. The video wasn't meant for people to judge his driving ethics...but to see the car and what it can do. Sorry u disapprove...but i really wasnt looking for anyone's approval. just wanted to share because regardless of his night drifting and mountain sliding...im proud of him. Alexis That's just my two cents. |
Cmon jessica. It was like midnight and NOBODY was on the street. I'm sure that almost everybody (well, every guy) on this site has done that at some point.

It doesn't matter what time it was Ryguy. You are still dumb for doing it. No matter if "nobody was out" at that time. It's illegal and this site does not condone it. But hey, since I'm not a mod or the owner of the site, everyone will disregard my comment.
Maybe I'll find a really bad car crash from illegal street activities where someone died so I can post up my own pictures and videos of that. It won't be too "cool" then.. would it? I guess I'm just "old" and find things like this completely immature. |
i agree with jessica, in that its foolish and immature, but that probably wont stop me from doing similar things, because im foolish and immature.

my bf didnt do any of the weighing himself, it came from a site as well... weighed his car on a scale...less his body weight to get the weight of the car. he said his car was 2600 with the KA....i think the next time he does an Ls1 for someone else....he is going to weigh it out. i think that would be hella good information to have. I was just in awe how he was able to do any of it really...i pretty much thought the car u bought came with that engine and that was that. lol its just way cool to me :b_yellow:

That's just my two cents. |
Hey, I respect him. I respect him for being able to do a swap like that, and Im not gonna judge somebody who drifts in the mountains either.

ok no more crap about the vid, jessica your right this site doesnt condone illegal street activities but lexi is on the site, not her BF. props to ur bf for the swap, i realize all u were tryin to do was show people the car and what it could do, not give us all a lesson on whats morally right or wrong.. people have mixed opinions about street drifting ect... and i know that it is illegal but so are a lot of other things people do..so if i go and post up a vid of nomuken tearing it up on the streets are yall all gonna start flaming because hes not on the tracks?? i dont think so
street drifting wrong? yes, but we cant hate on our roots..i love street drift, along with 50% of the other people, i just keep it off the boards.. nobody needs a lesson on what is an illegal activity, we all know it is, if all u want to do is get on the thread and flame cuz its illegal then dont post.. any more arguing and its closed. |

and for cronux, what might stop you from doing that kind of stuff is crashing and dieing or coming close. it sure stooped me. 5 years and counting race free. |
hmmmmm
Very nice, I'd still prefer to see it all in a Camaro sliding on the track, but . . .a valiant swap and valiant effort in driving with all that torque. -Dave |
why are you posting for him???? tell him to come aboard. i respect the work in all, but its pretty common like everything else... also with all the kits that even McKinney sports has came up on, the swap is way easier than what it use to be.
im not even going to lie....... I use drift heavily on the street but i will never post it online again. with my career now i cant even afford to just got out and have a late night spin anymore. |
