Default me drifting my car at willow springs v2.0

1st time i went there i had used tires and worked great, this time, not so much.

i went thru 3 pairs, mainly because they were chunking BADLY, plus my front tires are past their expiration date, so my performance wasnt as good as I wanted.

next time Ill have NEW rear tires and pretty new fronts.

quick time, little better quality

yeap at balcony, avg entry was around 55-60mph

I REALLY want to do more to my car, coilovers, arms, tein tie rods, 2 way. I think i could do really well in this car if it was setup better

I didnt realize how much the back of the car was unloading until i saw this video

but its my daily driver and learned thru my wrx not to heavily modify my daily.


btw i have a money sucking 72 datsun 510

Have you tried drift day? they are much closer than balcony and it isnt the same course every time. last few d-days we have had some high speed (>75mph) courses. lately held in irvine, much closer.

i think i recall that car somewhere, maybe on the corolla forums? is it dark silver with an sr?

stock power is good enough to drift the bank at irwindale btw i have got a cusco 2-way, zeals 16f/14r, sways and adjustable arms all around. it is also my daily and it drives just fine

yeap thats it, should be running the end of jan, 2.5 years in the making. i use to post a lot on the corolla forums, ive built 3 ae86s, my SN on club4ag is markshatchi86


I dont like how 2 ways drive on the streets, especially in the rain (though it never rains in so cal). I also dont want a really stiff suspension on my daily. I have been an import guy since 97 and after 10 years of rough riding daily drivers, its nice to just have a car that rides firm.

also there wont be any drifting of the Z at irwindale, or any places that has walls for that matter. Come the middle of the year I will have my 240 built for doing things like that.
