I've invented a new sport, THE OFFICE DRIFT. This is kind of based on the glass of water in the Fujiwara Tofu Shop AE86 in Initial D, combined with being without my car at varios occasions.

Objective: To do fancy footwork, side steps, and slides, all whilst carrying your hot cup of coffee back to your desk.

Rules: Yet to be defined, But spillage is frowned upon.

Scoring: As this is an artistic mpresion there will be two sets of scores, similar to the floor routine in gymnastics, for Artistic Impression, and Technical difficulty. These two scores are then graded against the level of the coffee in your cup. IE The fuller it is the higher you score.

There are bonus points sytems available also, these can include office drifting around the boss, carrying two cups, and just about anything.

Help me share this wonderful new sport to the world, make your next coffee break more interesting, do a big power over coming out of the kitchen ad keep it sideways all the way to your desk.

OFFICE DRIFT WHENEVER POSSIBLE AND POST YOUR STORY HERE!

I think the final setting was thursday night, two weeks ago. That was the last thing I can remember doing, and didn't even realise it at the time. But I can specifically remember making noises whilst doing a 360 through the door before offloading the drinks and performing a perfect park job on the couch...then ofcourse, this ended up leading to stumble the stairs and into the taxi :lol:

Huh! ... great idea Doc..

I have been office drifting for a week now (on and off as the confidence fluctuates), and today my manager caught me in a huge drift (Power over -- moved into a Fiento -- then onto a Sido)...

No, i didn't lose my job or get frowned apon by him... he actually challenged me to a drifting duel .... "we'll drift for pink slips he says" .. so i'm like whoaa! ... totally up for it ... then b4 i know it, he performes a massive drift in front of this presentation with all these parters in the next office and .. well, i just couldn't compete ... he had the guts to perform a power ower with opposite lock not once, not twice, but 4 times without spilling a drop or breaking a sweat!

bla bla .. lost my mug .. so any suggestions to the best style of mug for office drifting?? .. i need to beat this manager!

As I discovered the other day by mistake, a spray of Mister Sheen on your floorboards will add spice to your Home/Office Dooorifto session. There is now a frictionless section on the left hander from the kitchen into the dining room before you swing right to make it through the door to the living room and the grip of carpet. Get it wrong and it's straight into the lounge chair quickly followed by your toasted sanger and Milo. Get it right and you're a king! :D

Floorboards+Mr Sheen+Explorer socks=Ultimate Indoor Drift setup

or does when anyone else confront a crowd in a major shopping centre, you mock downshift, quicken your pace and weave your way thru the people, followed by a triumphant handbrake 180 when you get thru???

i do this all the time at parra westfields in the foodcourt on a thursday lunchtime, (close to uni) most of my friends think im nuts but they are starting to join in...

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
