Its drifting.

bricooper78 · 02-02-2014, 09:33 PM

It's not that either. It's locking up the rear wheels to slide. Drifting/Powersliding is done while accelerating, not braking

I was kidding!

hmm its been quite some time since I was in rapid city, or aberdeen.

99Alero_Boy · 02-03-2014, 11:01 AM

Wow, I actually don't live in Rapid, I live in Belle Fourche, but most people recognize RC as a landmark. I was actually born in Aberdeen.

I was born there too, except about 15 yrs later in 1999. I have maybe been to Belle Fourche once or twice in my life, and I forgot, about how big was it?

2000 GT Coupe · 02-03-2014, 02:01 PM

I been through it multiple times, I lived in Box Elder for 2-3 years in the mid to late 80's I actually went to one of the boys club after school, and summer programs in Rapid city, I could not tell you where it was though. lmao

99Alero_Boy · 02-03-2014, 07:45 PM

Belle Fourche is around 4000 but getting bigger with the oil field traffic. Spearfish is a solid 10000 probably 15000 with BHSU, which is where I go to school at. It's 15 minutes from Belle.

Quote:

Drifting is a driving technique where the driver intentionally or unintentionally oversteers, causing loss of traction in the rear wheels or all tires, while maintaining control from entry to exit of a corner. A car is drifting when the rear slip angle is greater than the front slip angle, to such an extent that often the front wheels are pointing in the opposite direction to the turn (e.g. car is turning left, wheels are pointed right or vice versa).

Powerslide - a throttle-on induced oversteer

I'd like to add that powersliding is sold as drifting on tv

And that we started doing this in America LOOONG before it became popular in Japan!

Before they ever made a car with enough power to break the rear tires loose.

More epic snow shots. Drove to the gas station with just the fogs on, thats about a mile n a half drive, fogs do better job then headlights.

bricooper78 · 02-04-2014, 08:44 PM

TDavis · 02-04-2014, 09:31 PM
