well, i guess ill take YOUR word for it, even though im out at midnight madness at gateway international every month,and at drift events all season and with a drift club named DriftSTL and have my own competition drift team here in stlouis SlidewayzSyndicate. but hey im sure you know more. i mean, hey you have a cartoon picture of an 8 on your profile, so you must actually race your rx-8. look dude, look at the bottom two pics. those were the final turn of the road course, each picture was a different run. and that my friend is drifting. maybe you need stop to hatin and get out and try initiating drifts around a road course between 60-75 mph. id love to see what youd look like out there. thanx.

ok maybe this will help u guys realize that im not parked, all you have to do is look in the back ground. im obvioulsy not sitting still. but the tires i used (Wanli tires) didnt smoke that much. so i see why you would think that, but no im not.

I appreciate what he is trying to do...as well as the fact that he's doing it at a sponsored event for people who want to drift. Good luck with your project.

hey man, sorry i was having a rough day yesterday, didnt mean to be so mean. but yeah the last two were in mid-3rd gear slides. same turns, differant runs, the forth one i did have too much slip angle but i corrected my angle and continued sideways thru the rest of the turn, like i said the Wanli didnt put much smoke out. also its a stock 8 and it was on a road course, not a graet combo if you want to see smoke. pic 2 was deffinatly a spin-out , which it happens sometimes. i figured id be real and post them all. not just the nice ones. like sum fakers. the first pic is just hauling *** in the straight away. but whether u see it or not the last two were in mid-drift.its was basically a u-style turn (maybe that might help u see it). i mainly took offense o it becuase i figured people on here would notice the good in what other people are doing with their 8's like Kwescott, in stead of just right away doggin on them. i dont think i got one bad remark on the DriftSTL forums, and those are all fellow drifters and alot of them a very good. so i guess thats what matters on the whole drifting aspect, but i roll an 8 so i posted them here too. thats all. no hard feelings. anyways i had a blast.

I'm glad your putting a name out for the 8's. All my friends think they are useless. Next year I'm hoping ill be doing the same thing as you. Hope to see more pic's coming and video too.
