when you drift out of the school parking lot, do you mean you pull out of there and get sideways?

I consider that getting sideways out of a parking lot lol. drifting is like doing really wide donuts, or just sliding all the way around a turn, like this- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTX7cUsHVHE

yea, anyone can get a car sideways and straighten it out, drifting is a lil bit more involved....

watch The Fast and the Furious - Tokyo Drift...it is a a$$ load harder to do then it looks man. u dont just smash the gas peddel down and take corners...

i know exactly what drifting is... i've been studying it for the past 2 years... i think i would know =P

this right here is the best: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc9U4N02bI0

there's a crash near the end but it's awesome until then

don't you not have your full license yet? and your asking people where you can go driving around turns at a excess speed to put the car on the very limits of its handling abilties?????

if your looking for a way to teach yourself to drify, I went to borders last night and seen a book on how to drift, gives you diagrams and everything, its in the sports section near the end where all the race car books are if your intrested, I was gonna buy it, but bought the book Shelby GT40 instead, pretty good info and pics on Carroll's involvement in the fight against Ferrari and Ford.
