How not to drift the Housemaster way..

Housey · 3 Feb 2008 at 23:44

This is what happens when you try to drift an RS4 without fully switching off the traction control, and I still managed to spin it!

Crap video to be honest and first lap or so of the day, but in this doubting everyone age it at least shows my car. If you still don't believe me ask Tax Evader, he's in the passenger seat! I was fiddling with the TC button hence the slowness, it did get better later on....honest

I call BS. Obviously your dad's car. This forum really needs another one of these threads right now.

I went in too quickly on the massively slippy surface (it's like ice, laid specifically for drifting) and lost it. The back came around and I was not quick enough to catch it, pure and simple. I needed to play myself into the surface and failed, it was only my first or second lap I think, and I was not really paying attention as we were trying to get the ******* TC switched off, and failing. It looked worse as it also stalled and then would not start for a few seconds!

Nah, its controlled and that was just after the start so the other car would have not even pulled away.

Sure you were not on the offroad track. WTF is it with the ford you went through!

It was a bit wet, well very wet. My mate nearly binned his 911 in an off road event of world class proportions, though with no damage, as did a couple of the guys in their CSL's, including one guy in his first ever drift day who binned it in 2 yards, off the start and then got stuck for 10 minutes on the grass, we still have no idea how he did it, it was just wrong.
