Default Quick video from my last drift event

Just a quick clip from my last open session drift event. Thought the CF crowd would enjoy. Depending on your connection, it may take it a second to switch to HD.

Nice! gotta love controlled sliding! lol

Id love to get into drifting, but cant afford tires...

Now, if you would drop a 6.0 or even a 5.3 LS motor in it you could have even more fun!!!

Ahh... tires aren't that bad. These days, so many cars run 17"-18" standard, so that's helped a lot.

As for the LS... Never - hate the eight!!! If anything, I'll move to a straight 6 turbo for more torque, but I enjoy the effort it takes to build/maintain a turbo system.

I hear ya - an LS Miata would be pretty sweet. Money is always a problem. I've been building this car over the past decade and its a product of many many hours and flipping cars/bikes to pay for it.

I believe they are called Monster Miatas you can YouTube them they are very impressive, most ppl like 5.0s or LS in them, there's a shop in Cresson TX that specializes in them. He's right in front of Texas Motorsport Ranch.
