Have a look at this guys...

What the f&(% are they on about, do they even know what the hell drifting is about????

If i was to close my eyes I'd think there talking about a treadmill race for the 'Biggest Loser' or something.

6k landed and complied and regeod

what engine do they come with?...

Trent u kno what im thinking... i want one like Finks.. with a 1J aswell :(

but yeah, ill sit on that one and think about it when i pull mine off zee road

Don't like them? Then don't listen.

I highly doubt that the so called "bad commentary" in that clip affects your life, or anyone else's on here, so get over it.

lol woww 'thunder strike' im sorry for offending you & your feelings...

Anyone else want to have a go at me for saying people who have NO IDEA about drifting shouldnt be commentating drift competitions??

by the way are u one of those people who collected action figures at the age of 18 by any chance?

according to your logic, you shouldn't be speaking/typing in English..

some one could come in here and say "look at this guy saying "perthetic" he shouldn't be allowed to speak English if he can't even spell!"

Im not paid to start threads on forums, either am i an English teacher.. besides, who looks out for their spelling in forums anyway??

Those commentators ARE paid for what they do & ARE supposed to be professionals at what they do...

Anyway either close the thread or get back on topic cos the 2 above posts are worth no more than a worn out Goodyear 175/65/R14.

lol woww 'thunder strike' im sorry for offending you & your feelings...

You obviously did not understand me if you think that I am offended at all.

You can choose to focus on the bad things in life, or you always try to see the good in things. Now which one will bring you most happiness?

dean, if he had no idea about drifting.. why is he commentating... i say.. bring on calder :sleep:

lol Phil what the f*&% are u on about? So ur saying they know what there talkn about?? Out of all people i would not think

you especially would pull out a sH&* comment like that..

Name 3 things those commentators said that was relevant to the sport of drifting.

And whats with this thread in general!!! I started it as a F*&*NG joke to give people a bit of a laugh and i have panzies turning it into a war.

You belong on calaisturbo.com talking about different size dose pipes.

dean, you talk about drifting like you can do it blindfolded... 2004 is when DA started, and NO ONE knew wtf they were doing, listen to DA now and see how much it has improved aswell as everyone else that does it...

You are one person who shouldnt comment on drifting in any aspect...

So what if i was on CalaisTurbo.. how much knowledge have i gained reading their tech threads and reading these... does the outcome of my car make it obvious?

I say get out there like you have been saying for how long, you have dumped how much money into ur suspension and car, but you still wont bring it to a track, instead ur bringing a commo to drift.. worst idea ever.. but MIGHT be ok

Like Ironchef said, the whole drift thing only just started and everyone needs practice to get things right, but then if you didn't realise it was in the early days, I know where you're coming from. Just relax!

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
