That was pretty decent considering the fact that f-bodies suck for drifting.

Noone's ever even tried to put the money into a 4th gen to compete seriously. 1st Gens and 3rd Gens have both been hugely successful in drift. No reason to see a 4th Gen failing at it with the work done, just like any other auto sport.

And for not seeing the point? Not really a point to anything we do with cars. It's all fun. I love seeing driving skills. That's what drift is about.

Yea i was very suprised how well he did on the 1st time out. He went from his Turbo M3 (2600lbs) Fully built car to my heavy *** tank.

There has been some steering mods other then stock done but not much. Making new parts for it and going to see how it does.
