daft. i was going to tell him that a 240sx doesnt have a 50/50 weight a few days ago but i knew it was a waste of time. at best a stock 240 (with ka) is 53/47. also see 54/46 at times.
mine with a ls1/t56 was 53.5/46.5 with all stock panels. i need come CF/FG hood and fenders and ill be alittle closer to a 50/50.

tolerance of +-3 is acceptable, you can use ballast when you corner weight too offset if you are really maticulous about it. relocate battery or run oddysey like me, theres another weight shift. theres alot you can do.

Have u not watched the NHRA lately or seen it? There is a sticker of every sponsor on the car with HUGE graphics! Why isn't that "ricer"? You need to crawl out of your hole and realize that there is more to the sport than just "doing donuts in a open parking lot"! There happens to be a lot of skill involved in drifting just like there is in drag racing. On another note there are WAY more drag cars that have "thousands of dollars" spent on them to just drive a 1/4 of a mile than there are drifters that only drift their cars. Get the **** out of your little hole you have been stuck in and realize that there is other motorsports besides drag racing! And not every state's roads are as bad as ****** Missouri's!

while i may not have "made it" i do have sponsors. and i never had 1 sticker on my car till the parts/tires/money started rolling in.
a car withOUT stickers that is absolutely killing everyone and everything on track draws more attention from the people that matter than the flashy stickered up one.

nice work as usual Blake.
Have you started the TT project on that Chevy II yet? Chad was next to Craig in the pits this weekend, nice guy, I'm interested to see what it looks like when you get done with it.

Good way to kill a great thread... Drifting would be fun as long as I dont have to pay for my own tires.
This car is sick no matter what anyone thinks. I am building an Ls1 rx7 though so I am biased
