Does anyone run something like this for drifting?
Just curious if others have had the same Idea I did?
Sim drifters first time in a parking lot
Picked up a clapped e46 for 2k because it had a blown diff slapped a 3.46 in it and these are some vids after like 10 minutes in a parking lot i figured it out pretty much immediately the sim is amazing lmao
some of my media coverage from an event yesterday in New Orleans
Are these Advan Wheels legit?
About to buy these on marketplace but cant tell if they are fakes? They look real to me. Its for a drift car so not trying to break the bank but I know these are suppose to be great for drifting.
For my Miata boys
I recently picked up a 99 NB for the low low price of 600 bucks. The caveats to said NB are that it's an auto with a blown motor (suspected rod bearings) The main goal with the NB is build an entry drift car to get some seat time in. Obviously it needs an engine rebuild and I'm halfway finished with getting it out so I can see just how bad the damage is. Where should I put my focus into parts wise to get something that I can beat on at the track a few times a vear? Sort of torn on where to qo with the build. What are v'all's recommendations and what have v'al done for vour drift builds? Part of me knows I'm gonna end up growing out if it within a season or two and go with something more powerful
Hello! I need a advice on my street/drift car
So this is my 2012 lci E92 328i, it is 6.0L V8 LS2 swapped with a T56, it is making about 470whp currently, it has feal 441 coilovers and 17” apex rims with 245’s cheap tires for drifting, welded 3.73 diff, driveshaft shop driveshaft and axles since i already broke 2 stock axles.
Car seems to hook very hard when clutch kicking it to start doing a donut or figure 8 and, what should i do to make it drift smoother/watery car doesn’t seem to want to slide and only grips
Final run of my first time spectating a drift event
Generally not my cup of tea, but man is it fun riding shotgun with people that know what they're doing
Odi will be driving the Heart of Racing Aston Martin at Motegi Super Drift tonight.

The honest truth about daily driving an MX-5 for a year
I bought an ND2 MX-5 (30th Anniversary Edition, 1 of 3,000) almost a year ago and I've daily driven it ever since. It's one of the best decisions I've ever made. But if you're thinking about pulling the trigger on a Miata or any lightweight sports car, here's the stuff that nobody talks about in the reviews.
The squeaks are real. Dashboard, doors, roof, everything creaks and rattles on rough roads. Less than a year old and it already sounds like it's falling apart. It's not, but it sure sounds like it.
Wind noise is worse than you think. I'm not talking about top-down driving. I'm talking about the soft top up on the highway. Above 60 mph, conversations require yelling. At higher speeds, forget it.
The suspension meets Eastern European roads. It's tuned for the track, which means every pothole feels like you hit a landmine. I'm in Eastern Europe, and the roads here look like they survived a war. If your daily commute has rough pavement, this will get old fast.
The stock exhaust doesn't match the car. For a sports car, the exhaust has no character at all. It doesn't sound bad, it just doesn't sound like anything. For a car that does everything else with personality, the stock exhaust feels like it's holding back.
Power is humbling at traffic lights. 184 hp is fine for canyon roads, but sitting at a red light next to a turbocharged Accord or a GTI, they just pull away without trying. It's not slow, but the stoplight pulls remind you where 184 hp sits in 2026.
Would I do it again? In a heartbeat. The driving experience, the steering feel, the way it makes every drive fun, it's all worth it. But these are the trade-offs.
What's the most annoying thing about your daily driver that you've just learned to live with?
I made a full video going through all 7 things if anyone's curious
Moving to NC
Just got out of the army made a pit stop in Florida and am going to be moving up to North Carolina. Looking to make some friends and get back into learning to drift. My son is also at that age where he is getting into cars and likes going to grass root events with me.
I’ll be closer to the South Carolina border if there are people who are down to help a newish person out and show them around the drift community up there.
Thanks
Arkady Tsaregradtsev continues to drift while his car is in flames to finish the RDS GP 🔥
Any drift classes in Georgia?
I’m currently in the army but I get out soon and I’m going back home to south ga and I wanted to get more into motorsports. I have a mustang and I can do donuts in a pit but I got no idea how to actually drift. Are there any training programs or classes that can help me along in Georgia/North Florida?
Left Formula Drift Long Beach with quite the souvenir!
Rudy Hanson gave me a piston from his 7 liter Ls and signed it!
Should I just do a light clear coat to make sure the sharpie doesn’t fade?
