Haha...I dont even put the car into rice standards. Yes it has a slightly irregular paint job, but its not too over the top. No super huge wing or really obnoxious body kit. And...I hear a turbo. So it has at least SOME work under the hood to back up its appearance. Isnt one of the definitions of rice when you make your car look faster than it is? He's got a decent balance.

While I dont agree with when and were...that was some pretty good driving. Ive drifted my car around an on ramp before...but it was NOT on purpose haha. That was running late for work while telling myself "3rd gear will never break loose around this corner..."

I stopped watching it about 2 minutes in.

DRIFTING ON PUBLIC ROADS IS THE DUMBEST THING YOU CAN DO IN A CAR.

I used to drift a little in my 240, the closest I came to doing it on public streets was empty parking lots.
He's not bad but he's not great; might qualify at an amateur event.

Beat me to it. Word for word.

Except I would never own a 240, ugly as **** IMO.

I hope you smash that little tuna can into a nice semi trailer.

The least you could do is wait for traffic to clear, this isn't a movie.

Im pretty sure he had people setup at certain spots to tell him when traffic was coming or not. Lighten up.

Good job on the drifts. Love the sound of a BOV

Yea seriously guys, lighten up with traffic, are you that braindead? Like you've never speeded on a highway or anything, you could clearly see people were recording him so im pretty sure theyre not dumbasses who just recorded on the fly and probably watched out for traffic.
