I agree with Dan, although I am sure most of you think I don't drift. I don't care what people think of me, because I am happy with what I am doing. The point is, I would really like to see this forum become a drifter's community by helping each other out, rather than have someone who just watched Tokyo Drift saying that the drifting in the movie was better than what someone in a video did. I was called an "e-drifter" by someone on here, and I will not point out anyone, but he is still on here. Anyway, I made a dumb comment, but instead of showing me the positive side of what I made the comment of, he decided to insult me. That wasn't too helpful. I am not complaining, and I am not done. If you want to call me an e-drifter, go for it, but I wont take kindly to it. I am not a pro, but I still go out and try my best to have fun. Dan, I will soon join your drift sessions, and make some new friends. I am done crying now......BITCHES!

I try not to insult people, i dont think I do it often.

If someone asks for help I give them advise that would point them in the correct direction, how to drift an auto at an event, or making right hand turns at 50.

To other people:
Try to think and exercise common sense before you post. There are alot of people who just post random questions with out supporting evidence that they were trying to help them selves but need others opinions or answers. I have absolutely no problem helping someone who tries to help them self. Its the internet, sarcasm is used everywhere, there is no need for a personal attack on a person because they called you a noob or e-drifter, brush it off your shoulders and continue with the content of the discussion. This would cut down on alot of the bs and off topic.
 
bowroflomgwtfbbq! and I remember when street pics/vid/talk/thought wasnt allowed here :laugh:
 
yea, you all were being tools and tried being "professional" It got you all more laughed at.

:laugh:

Hey how about if you just make Sfldrifters a site for you 4 or 5 guys that have posted so far... looks like you all 3 or 4 agree or just make sfldrifters for only "the reall drifters" and you'll have about 30 or maybe 40 members... Just thinking for a solution for all of you!

what u dont understand bro. is the top posters on here HELP each other out a lot and hang out a good amount and are friends. a lot of us take drifting seriously... cept TJ.... :p ..... so its kinda annoing having some kids that havent ever drifted let alone drive a RWD car besides mommy and daddy's suv, Tell us wat were doing wrong like they are the DK..

but if u come out to the meets and events and make ur self known, IE introduce urself. dont be affraid to talk. and u will be accepted and viewed differently. Show u like the sport dont just say it. PROVE IT

thats all.. i gotta peee
 
I know that all of you are good people the only advise is to let sfldrifters grow, anyways you know who the real drifters are, but my point is if sfldrifters grows, no matter how it grows the longer is going to be on the net...

More members = More drifters some day... Just don't tell people go to diferent sites or they will start talking BS about sfldrifters. Look some day I would like to learn how to drift when I put my car together and that takes time and money! for now all I can do is just read and learn from all of you, get advises and buy some parts "Locally" but by calling people a "Poser" and telling them that they are not welcome in a way it won’t help...

Hey and trust me I don't take anything personal so I'm sorry if some on does, see you around!

Nice 2 tone 240!

It's been two years since SFLDrifters started. There are 800 members and less than 50 drift, and today there are little to none incentives for people to host events down south, because of that.

You blame some of us for calling out posers, however I can vouch for almost every drifter in this forum for giving a helping hand to anyone who was starting to drift. We've been there, we've done that.... we all started with nothing. And by having that experience, I can quote you by saying: "Look some day I would like to learn how to drift when I put my car together and that takes time and money!". And you're wrong.

Drifting is not expensive, it does not require time and money. At least not in the initial sense. Anyone with a rear wheel drive car can slide around, and none of that open diff, automatic, low power excuse..... it's just a handicap but it doesnt make it impossible. It's the excuses that defines a poser. Tires at the junker is $5, another $5 to mount them. When you become a drifter, you easily come across a spare set of wheels to have your drift tires on, so you can have good tires all around, and those tires on the side that you have to roast.

Right now, we're still under $50 of the total cost to start getting sideways, all of which is still an optional, provided you already have a RWD car (and statistically, everyone here does).

This is my last post in this thread, so I dont keep talking about the same thing, you are right and I was wrong about the money in my part is the time, I work full-time and travel for work and I go to college almose full-time aswel and I'm sure I'm not the only one that does that. I'm not looking for an excuse, hey but life is short and you have to do as many things as you can!

dont stop posting. ur doin aight bro

i too work fulltime and go to school fulltime.. but working on my car and events are my escape. it makes life SANE. i had a FWD since i was 16. but i loved the sport that iv been following for the past 3 + years .. and i took the risk to sell my VERY NICE maxima that had no issues for an older 240.. which motor blew.. and has given me many hours of wrench time.. SOOO many ppl still call me dumb and ask me WHY the fuck did u get rid of ur maxima.. and if i could go back.. would i do it again.. the answer is YES!!!

the 240 has brought headaches but iv grown and matured with it and the problems iv had. i wouldnt trade it for a thing in the world. the commrodery of the guys on here who meet and chill is like family. Ask anybody here.. we'r kinda a big family. always down to help each other out.

n thnx .. the 240 has takin a lot of luv to get it like BELOW...
 
Honestly, i think its a good idea to start the whole "Poser" under the member name thing. All though i myself would be included in the poser team. I still think its a good idea.

Why you ask? because it will just motivate others to wanna have "drifter" under there member name. People will start filming themselves drifting and more people will show up to meets and begin drifting. Think about it., who wants to be labled a poser on Florida's biggest Drift forum?

I frankly think i belong there because i have no videos of me drifting and havent been to any event's. Yes i do drift. in the streets. whos gonna take my word for it though? so yeah.. i guess ill need to post a video if this happens and join these mid night sessions. :)
 
Label posers, for sure.

I disagree with discouraging particular tech conversations but I would agree with editing or deleting posts from retards that have no real facts to contribute and would rather just start fights and post up complete and total bullshit they know nothing about. There's nothing wrong with posting pros and cons but when you get some baby-dick asshole that can't take the fact that his favorite engine is not without flaws, problems begin to arise.

I also think you should ban shit talking posers.

Same here. I had a 1997 Honda Accord LX 5 speed that was perfect. I ragged on that car for 6 months. When I say rag, I mean this car was being punished for something it didn't do. What can I say, it was my first car. Anyway, I really wanted a 240 when I bought the other car, but I found an old Corolla SR5. I took my chances and bought it, and sold the Accord. The first time I drove it, the night was raining. I busted my first drift, and it was sweet. I was hooked on the Corolla. I haven't attended any events, and my friends don't like to take videos of me drifting. So I have no proof, but I will tell you that I didn't buy a Corolla to make it into a show car. I bought a Corolla to drift. I want to get into an event, and hopefully we get one in Miami, Moroso, Homestead, where ever it is close, and I will take my car there and get this poser status off my ass. :bigthumbu

ok, i dont think the problem was with the ka vs, sr.... but it was on someone's thread that had nothing to do with ka vs. sr. If you want to do a ka vs. sr comparison, there's like 100 past threads about it.

No shit that was a problem...and it all started with a line from a dumb shit that had no real facts to contribute and never did as the thread progressed. Threads can never always stay on topic anyway. Your post that I just quoted is a perfect example of that.

^ Uhh was that my thread about the FJ? ....

Yeah I think the poser tag is a good idea and you need to slap it under my name to give me some modivation... cause i've been so lazy lately I can't street drift because its against my religion plus if I get caught i'll lose my free mercedes training. So with OSW being canceled and Ocala filled up I don't really have any reason to get my shit done.

+1 .....and im down for some late night sliding, like it was back in the day ....and i dont think you should label people. i think it will give people the wrong idea about the fourm but thats for yall to decide and i think everyone knows who drifts here and who doesnt .....and i dont think i would fit under the so called" poser title " i have done a few old events and i have went sliding with alot of people on this forum and i still do to this day .....but just cause you dont see some doing it. it doesnt meen there not . just remember its better to have people talking or doing it than to have them not doing neathier one
