Oh, this is hilarious, you guys are gonna love this.

My friend was in his Camero today, and he decided to try and "drift" around a back road this morning. He had NO Idea how they did the art of drifting, just that they skid sideways.

Well... He Definitely got sideways. He ended up in a ditch, getting a concussion and wrecking the Camero and not drifting. Yea... hes dumb, and He's only had his license for less than a month?

Drifters... they take that "Completely out of control" Feeling and make it a sport.

Bottom line, people are completely afraid to test their vehicle in an "out-of-control" situation. My solution? Have drivers test their skills on the Autocross track and loose control. All that can happen is a few cones get knocked over. I'd look into it, or submit to FWD.
My solution, (we're talking trucks going out of control remember?... trucks and autocross...) is... borrow the neighbors truck " Or... take a drifting course! Maybe that's some advise my friend could have used...
