TOKYO DRIFF NUKKAAAZ!

No, I never pull the e-brake.

But I have had someone call my car a race car before (because it has a v6), I guess some ignorant import 4 banger owners don't realize that a v6 isn't exactly powerful..well maybe it is to their engine, but not really.

Jon, we dont need to pull the e-brake, we jus press the gas pedal and brake it loose.

ha ha ha....I've never been asked that question....interesting. I know when I was 17 I used to drive up my first car up to Mt. Shasta a lot to go snowboarding and sometimes when the parking lot of the resort was empty and icy I would get going and pull the e-brake and spin the wheel! ha ha ha....now that was fun.

In the snow and ice it's fun to have a FWD car and yank the e-brake. we used to do it all the time in my boy's neon...fun times.

no one asks me that question because I dont surround myself with people that stupid. I do however do awd donuts with my dodge ramcharger, and just regular donuts too.

I pull my ebrake all the time and i'm a damn good drifter...in my 240sx lol. It isn't that slow it's got 155hp stock and it's pretty damn peppy for a 4 banger since it has high compression. Next month I'm going to drift day in orlando speedworld and I'm gonna tear up a complete set of rears. WOOOT so much freaking fun omfg.

OOOOOK so your gonna go and try to drift a KA24 240sx which has barely enough power to spin wheels as it is? Try this before you make an idiot out of yourself in front of alot of people there: save some money and put a sr20det in or rb25dett, then put a sull TIEN suspension or Apexi setup on, upgrade the turbo or turbo's. Install a full tace cage and put the set of Kosei rims or Grame Lights with Falken Azenis tires......then you can drift it and look good at it and not make an idiot of yourself.

I'm not trying to be a jerk to you mustangV6_04, but just trying to keep you from looking like the other idiots i see out there trying so hard.
