Been awhile since I've been on my race game. but whats good with the races. seems like everything died down and noones haven any more good ones. I'm just tryna watch a few, lost my whip about 4 months ago but should be getting a new one soon. just hit me back with some track info or line-ups.

www.cecilcountydragway.com

the track is closed right now. if you're referring to illegal street racing, it's extremely cold out so only the true ricers are out trying to race people.

what cars are you interested in?

im really trying to get another rx-8 or if i could find a rx-7 around here. there was one up in west chester that i was looking at but they sold it. im a feen for drifting and what not and the rx was perfect for that. If i had a lil more money i might go for an infinitni g35 or a 350z. Wheres the track at? and yeah winter is destroying it right now.

www.racewaypark.com in Englishtown, NJ is the only place close to here that has a road course open to the public (at times) that I know of...but I could be wrong lol. I've seen some sweet drifting up there though.

unfortunately there isn't any grip tracks around here. the only "close" track is a drag track. every now and then there'll be a company that'll rent out a huge parking lot and set it up for autocross but that's about it. from what i'm seeing there are alot of "drifting" type people on this site, just search around in the Upcoming Events section.

NJMP is the closest Road Course track.

nah, but if I suddenly stumbled about a crap load of tires it sure would be fun to try out haha. I've messed around in empty parking lots before, but thats pretty much the extent of it.

Get a ls1 rx7.They go pretty good in a strait line and get sideways even when your not trying so they have to be good at drifting.

yeah im looking at an rx7 but there so hard to find around here. You can'r race autos, its just not right. And yeah autos can drift but you take away liek 4 types because of the lack of clutch. and idk about all that with girls cant drive. haha my sister has a vw bug and whips it like champ.

you guys can hate all you want...pretty much case and point why I stopped going to local meets. No one appreciates a fellow enthusiast anymore...

Hey my car is bullet proof it doesn't make enough power to break anything!

You can'r race autos, its just not right. And yeah autos can drift but you take away liek 4 types because of the lack of clutch.

Let's see:
1) E-brake...still there
2) Clutch kick....if you're good enough, you can take advantage of the kickdown switch which has close results to a clutch-kick
3) Feint...still there
4) Dirt-drop...dirt's still there
5) Braking...still there
6) Power-over...if you got an auto with enough power, no problemo
7) Shift lock...ok, you got us there :-p

Autos can still drift! :-p:wink:

what your guys think about the 2010 nissan altima couple. front wheel drive...not ideal for drifting but ive done it before.

most autos are front wheel drive. which means u cant use the ebrake to iniate the drift. and with autos u mess up the transmission either way..
clutch kick ( the most common one used in races and probly the easiest one to do.) u cant do and not all cars have a kickdown switch.
feint and dirt drop are hard as anything to do. ahha im still working on those ones.
braking is possible the worst way to do it ive ever heard of.
power over works if u got a tank of a car.
