Hey guys here is a short video of my Firebird Drifting in the Rain, at
Yakima Speedway back in may. I was the only Muscle Car out, i had a
good time. drifting in the rain on a greasy track is hard! So far this year i
have run my 1991 L03 T5 Firebird around Yakima speedway's circle track,
renegade raceway's drag strip, and Pacific raceways road course. Ive
Driven to and from all these events, and am on a tight budget, the car is
mostly stock, but ive run this car all out every event, and its gotten me
there and back everytime. i added a vid coming out of turn 8 at pacific raceways as well. I love my Thirdgen! hope you like the vids.

Looks good. How did the car handle sideways? Mine feels really dull.

It felt good, you can't get too much angle drifting at higher speeds in third gear without spinning out, at least compared to the 240sx's and corollas that were out there, but all 2nd gear drifting got me grinning from ear to ear. Its just less....intense and more fun. It was good practice I got good at pullin 360 spins after id blow 3rd gear drifts.

I didn't remember yet, but I saw this cool article and thought I'd post it. I'm excited someone else is up for some sideways action.

Once I get mine handling transients throttle better I'll be going at it. Plus it seems I have a dragging driver caliper.

Dai Yoshihara's car is sick! LS1+240 he won D1 in seattle this year. there is a 3rdgen drifter on the east coast that modded his steering box for more angle. he has the best 3rdgen drift car ive ever seen. heres a link to his vid.
