Nice pics but that S15 looks so ugly with those altezzas. Even worse than a Civic with altezzas.

oh my god there's a Viper at a drifting event :shock:
wonder how well it slides, cuz i'm sure it's easy enough to just floor it and get the back end out.

cool, thanks for the pics 8)
is that viper for display only?

novass · 03-01-2004, 10:37 PM

the white Viper was on display only but there was a black one that looked practically the same, owned by some guy named Tarzan and he actually brought it out and drifted it a little just for fun. he didnt do too well, but im sure they didnt set up the car for that kind of driving and just left it in its race trim. it was still a treat to see such a car that im sure had well over 700hp being trashed around a bit. he even grazed the wall on one attempt and didnt stop but tried again. quite a show, i think i have it on the video but they were really anal about people bringing in video cameras so i cant remember if that happened before or after i snuck it in. i did manage to get about 45 min of video, havent watched it yet so i dont know how good (or bad) it is.

Rhys Millen drifted the new GTO pretty well too. nice change of pace from all the silvias and AE86s. the 5.7L sounded fuckin great! unfortunately he didnt make it too far though

I heard my old car made it pretty far until the transmission broke. Drifting will do that

That was a nice Z. Where is their shop? Two of my friends are Z fanatics. One of them is building a L28 bored to 3.1 with a turbo on it. It should be done pretty soon. The car doesnt look the best but it will be fast as hell. Let me know if you have any Z info, they are always lookin for stuff.

Oh and we didnt get into the pit. We got there early and bought our tickets that day didnt know anything about pit passes.

DR.GONZO · 03-04-2004, 03:01 PM

yea, they are all down here, all the shops are in H.B, even for your nova! They are right down the street from me, as for the z shit that l32 is at http://www.driftspeed.com/ The site changed the last time I have been too it, I can get the address and number for you, I might have the wrong site?? But where My friend bought his clean ass 510 with the c18det he got it from these guy's literally down the street http://www.altzinc.com/index.htm they do bomb work but they got pissed on the lag cause they have so many fuckin cars there, just too dam busy. Hope this helps.
