In regards to tires, I brought one extra pair to drift and they are still able to do another round, but they were in top condition.

I used my old 17" tires since I just bought a new set of 18" for the rear.

not aug 13
Please not aug. 13th, Thats the day Just drift will be ruinning the east loop at buttowillow!
I swear JD and DD set their events on the same day just to mess with each other. Half their events are on the same damn day! It messes with me because I am part of Just Drift but I still love going to the ddays(besides the fact that I hate clipping cones, thats called autocross or in this instance driftcross).
Please find another date,
I really want to make it there!

Man, I've been wanting to go drifting for a while now. I need to install my Nismo LSD and Brembos. I ordered Volks last month and am waiting for them to come in because I was under the impression that a full set of wheels was needed for Drift Day due to a lack of on-site tire mounting service. I guess if I just need tires, like you guys are saying, I better get that LSD installed by the 13th.

Oh there's a drift related question I've been meaning to ask. I have an 06 with the adaptive power steering. I'm assuming this is going to be a big negative for drifting. Anyone know of a way to disable it?

Wholey Smokes, I don't know too much about that adaptive setup.
But KEEP the power steering, especially with a car this heavy.
And depending on where we run there is a tire facility on site. Irrwindale is one of the only places that dosen't have one.
Willow springs and Buttonwillow have tire shops on site.
And you can always run to a local tire shop if you don't like getting ripped off.
And just one extra pair of wheels/tires should be good for a beginner. (2 more couldn't hurt)
If you can't get that lsd in, come out anyways. The viscous works just fine to learn with. Plus you won't be beating on that brand new lsd.
