Which setup for drifting...?

maggkrabar,

One will always need to repair old warn out parts on a car before it is usable in any sensible way on track for race or drift. Bushings, warn out shocks, old springs etc.

But seriously, put on new bushings, some good shocks, some nice springs and all the rest is nonsence for a good drift car unless you're so damn good that you're in the top of drifting.

Just look at the movies of Zax's zilver hachi, that thing is nearly stock, only small modifications, but he knows how to read and write with that car.
Damn, there's people out there that are doing wonderous stuff with things like Volvo 340's, Lada's and whatnot.

The problem with over modding your car when you are still learning is that it kills your learning, its the car thats doing the drifting at some point, not you.
You should first learn to drift good without all those goodies, then finetune your drift with those goodies..

That said, don't forget I'm haven't even begon to learn to drift so maybe I'm just saying nonsenceBig Grin But I do think learning to drift properly starts with improving the driver, not by improving the car.

Greetz,

Moved down under, no more hachi Sad
