...and i'm consider myself a good driver....ever since i got my first car....never been in a accident with anyother cars....i have got myself out of MANY MANY accident's cause by other people...and never got hit
Yeah thats exactly what i thought....before a tree and a viscious curb told me otherwise....
My first accident was also in a pretty unpopulated place, and like you, i thought i had my "drifting" down just right.
(some of you may remember this)
Now i know 2 things:
1. Drifting where people have any likeliness to be, is just a straight up BAD IDEA and SHOULDNT BE DONE EVER!
2. Camaros are not built for drifting
I feel so fortunate that someone wasnt walking on that sidewalk, or they would just be straight up dead. Killing an innocent person is something you can never forget. It will haunt you for the rest of your life, and you will always walk around with a guilty concience, not to mention a license-less wallet.(thats if youre allowed bail from your MURDER trial.)
Please. please. please. There are places for this kind of thing. Obviously the track is the #1 place for this, but kids dont have the 150 track fee, and track days arent very often.
But there are at least less threatening to other people places. Find some back roads, and take a friend, incase something happens. Never hit up the touge without a partner, or someday you will pay.
The one thing people who love the adrenaline rush of a fast car tend to forget is, If you are trying to become a better, faster driver, you WILL crash into something SOMEDAY, and you would MUCH rather it be a dirt wall, over a person. You are learning, and you can not learn without taking a little extra risk, and a little extra risk means bad things can and most likely will happen.
I think dave mirra said it best with the words "Show me a rider who has never taken a fall, and i will show you a rider who has accomplished nothing"

i read the first 1 1/2 pages. 50ul sweet deal dude. all haters... if he were doing this on an open road i would most definatly call him retarted also but he was in a neighborhood that was not built, nothing to hit and nobody to injur, if the guy wants to experiment in a closed road i don't see a problem with it. i did it in my honda couple times a few years back and had a blast. that's my .02
