I've considered driving autocross, and it's not really a balls thing as much as a time and money thing. Though, now that I have a helmet, I should come out and drive.
Btw, auto-crossing my BMW would be stupid at best. E46 subframes are known to have issues which I believe mine does from when I crashed it in the winter. I'm not trying to do anymore damage to a car that I owe more than 12-13k on.
I wasn't talking about Jetro.
It shows how much you know. I haven't slid Jetro since last year, it's not my spot to mess up.
I was talking about sliding street turns which is how I crashed the BMW over the winter.
Have you never read anything I've recently written about my drifting?
I make it blatantly obvious that I still suck. I don't have enough real seat time to have any legitimate experience.
There's no doubt in my mind that an instructor can out drive me in my own car, I'm not sure what you're trying to prove here.
I'm not entirely sure why you wrote the above post in such a malicious tone either. I was stating my opinions on autocross, and though I may have used my usual matter-of-fact tone, they're still opinions.
"Autocross is awesome" is an opinion.
For the record, I Suck at Drifting, and I also Suck at Driving.
Also, how about we let this argument die now, because I'd rather not see this get anymore personal than you've already made it.

cars with less power, run in different classes and are most of the time lighter(240sx), or handle better(bmw). everything needs to be put in perspective.
if your excuse before was not having a helmet, thats very weak at best.
so you're telling me that "the ultimate driving machine" can handle taking some turns at under 40mph? again pretty weak. also take your car back and get the recall done.
i know you havent been at jetro, and i also know some of your other spots. crashing the bmw sucks, but imo its more of a reason to come to autocross, less easy to mess up a car.
no i havent read anything about your drifting
nothing was intended to be to personal(its just the internet), your posts were just the first few that i hadn't read.
