Anyone here into drifting? Also, are there any local events here with instructors and such so I can go check out and even participate? Any info would be cool.. thanks!

 

There's supposed to be events up at golden gate park in the city every month. I'll look into it more and let you know. I've been goin to some empty parking lots now that's raining, but I always get ran out by someone, or leave shortly after because I'm too paranoid that the cops might be watchin me lol.

 

Not looking like I'll make this one after all as I'm planning on moving soon

what if you dont know how to drift?? should i get a old car to learn before i drift my Z??

 

events like this are in parking lots
which is a great way to learn.
less chance of destroying car.
just don't be stupid and try to be a hero..
ie..
if you are way off the cone course and you keep flooring it ultimately hitting a light pole (true story)
hehehe

 

Total beginner in this sport - I was reading the rules and regulations on the Drift site and it says bring extra set of tires... does that mean you have to have extra set of tires and wheels or do they provide tire mounting at these events? Can someone explain how these events are organized? If I have time, I'll be there to check it out this end of January..

 

shud i go with the tires i hav wen i bought the car or shud i buy some different tires for this event? and will they hav someone to help you learn to drift at these events and again shud i go wit my Z (even thought i never EVER tried to drift) or shud i get some older car like a 240sx and learn b4 i go?? anything i left out a Complete noob at this shud know?
