yeah I've heard of the Patrol but we don't have that here it goes from the Pathfinder to the Pathfinder-Armada nothing in between. I have done drifts in Super duty pickups before though but obviously I learned it all since I got my license in the winter and being that the Thunderbird was my first car I had to learn quick (V-8 RWD with an LSD means you learn quickly hence the single handed powerslide)

Even in my shitty FWD 75bhp Golf i've gotten the back end out. On dry roads, and without using the handbrake

I do it rarely though, the car handles like a boat

What date should I book my tickets on?

I park with handbrake when come home(when theres ice or snow ofcourse 8) ) cause otherwise I have to turn my car around in 2-3 parts, so in the morning I dont have to sruggle turning it cause the road is full of parked cars just pulling the handbrake and a little bit work with accelarator does the job

there's nothing like the feeling of sliding into a corner.. I have more experience with FWD over steer.. i pretty much learned how to drive by whipping around my mom's paseo convertible on mountain roads..

Had a real scary experience driving my friend's E30 318i Baur back from manhatten.. as I was getting on to the george washington bridge back end swings out I slowly catch it just barely before hitting the inside wall of the ramp.. was my first time in the rain with no LSD and RWD..

ive managed to get the back end out of the fiesta a few times,there is a certain few round-a-bouts in my town which when taken at the right speed,especially in damp conditions its easy to get the back end out and control it

where i live, i there are LOTS of old gravel roads that they smooth out and are travelled sparsely, and since my caddy is AWD, i get MONSTER 4wd drifts. its incredible tossing a car the size of it around, not necessarily fast (or i'd bin it REAL quick), but just feeling it slide the way you want to. its an incredible and addicting feeling.
