Drift drift drift...
I used to be big into drifting back in 05-06...
I went out to my spot today in my C6Z for the first time.
1st Suspension Test: Max compression 16 clicks
2nd. Session: Front on 14, rear on 7
3rd. Session: Front 10 Clicks, Rear 5. IDEAL for wet drifting at least.
First off, when you adjust compression, you must consider and adjust rebound as well.
I didn't have time to mess with rebound but the car reacts crazy with the compression adjustments.
The car wanted to do lots of donuts because of improper throttle control and lack of speed. aka 1st gear.
BUT, when you are in 2nd and 3rd, the tires are spinning around 80-100MPH. It is way easier to balance. As you can tell at the end of my video.
Enjoy:

When i had my g35 i tought I was good in the rain, then I started to get ballsy and started doing it in the dry... (hole diffrent ball game)
But after paying for 19" tires and then almost putting it into a pole I called it quits.
I put the V sideways alil in 1st gear once in a while, but dont do much drifting other then that.

I need to find a happy medium with the suspension for Drift set up and a different tire set up.
