I finally said screw it, my cars never going to be super clean, but it works perfectly, DRIFT CAR! And it's not my daily, so worst case I chuck it into a wall, some friends have trailers there, then just tube frame it back up. That's  pretty much exactly how it's structured in terms of anything  competition, at least on the local level. Competition stuff starts next  month, I'll go into it pretty well once it rolls around for you  probably. I got so many jokes the first time I went to an  event, all in good fun though. That's one thing I love about the culture  around it, 99% of the people are the coolest people you'll meet. And I  was really surprised how much people were kicking it in comparison to I  was, car has a lot of usable power for drifting. I was surprised  honestly, since my first event was in the dry and I'd never done  anything in the dry before really.Very much so. The thing I love about my car is how it taught me to  drive, when I had it for the most part it had HORRIBLE tires on it....  everyone here probably knows how it is in the rain with bad tires on  these things. It's definitely a good skill to know how to control the  car in a slide a little bit, hell just last week I was getting on the  highway in my daily, back end kicked out a bit, corrected like it was  nothing really since I'm so used to it. 9/10 people probably would have  been in a tree or something. Here's a little something from  yesterday to hold you over until this weekend just some donuts but hey.  More videos from my first event on there too, got a new memory card for  my go pro so I'll have lots of footage of this weekend <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ss-J-I9K5MQ&list=UUmF-xj7PcOx-jrzM3-5p8hw&feature=player_detailpage" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ss-J-I9K5MQ&list=UUmF-xj7PcOx-jrzM3-5p8hw&feature=player_detailpage</a></blockquote>
