inark Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 Seeing as it was such a lovely night last night (cold) i thought i would go and practice some drifting around the factory areas at 3am when there isnt anyone else around. It lasted one corner Did ok coming into the corner.... coming out of it was a little different. Was holding it sideways quite well going down the rd after the corner but let off the accelerator (i think this is why it happend) too much and the tyres gripped and threw me the other way more than i was meant to and was about to go head on into the meadian strip so i punched the accelerator all the way to the floor to get the wheels spinning and try and pull out of it and managed to flick it the other way and slow myself down a little more before hitting the concrete/grass sideon with the back wheel. All i got out of it was a flat tyre (rear tyre sperated a little from the rim) which cost $20 to fix! Think i will just wait until the good doctor shows me properly Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6358-ooops/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKY031 Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 really..... if you want to do this type of thing, you need to practice somewhere with no gutters..... maybe we could organise a skidpan day or something?
