I hope this won't be considered as a street racing video as it's nothing competitive and it's happening in an industrial zone that has no traffic literally.

It's what we do for fun on a roundabout... Trying to hold your car sideways for as long as possible. There's 2 guys with Impreza GT's and me with the Evo that have been doing this so far and it's mad fun and it teaches you a lot about controlling your car once it's not railroad tracking around a corner.

Sorry about the awful resolution - phone camera out of a car in the rain ... Comments welcome!

Moderators - if you consider this a controversy please just delete it, but since there's been videos of people doing donuts I don't think this is much different than that. It's not a competition and we are not putting anyone at risk by doing this.

 

Dude that looks fun as hell. You get pretty sideways around that thing. Be careful not to hit that curb...

 

Happened twice when I was still learning. Once it was just a jump on the curb with the front side of the car (Instead of spinning like you saw at the start of the movie, I didn't know what to do and the front grabbed and I jumped to the inner side on the curb, although my car is not lowered so I pretty much just drove on to the curb at a slightly bigger speed than you usually do that ). Second time I took about half an inch out of my rim on the rear back wheel Nothing bent or broken. though. I got the Potenza RE050A which have that protective thing around the rim and it really is just a rash that you can't even see unless looking from a right angle. Nothing I would cry over though and def. worth taking the risk of learning to drift like this

 

I wouldnt do it but it looks like fun

 

Why not?

 

Drift king!

I wish we had round-a-bouts like that in Florida lol

 

looks like fun!

 

take it to a skid pan dude.

not only will you not **** up your evo if you hit a kerb, pole, person, another car...

but its also legal

 

All great ideas ... But...

Slovenia does not have: a skid pan, a drag strip, a race track or any other non-public road that we could use. We have 1 go-cart track that I would smash my car on earlier than any other road + it costs 380$ per hour and there can be 4 cars at the same time on it on a 0,9 mile track that's not wide enough to even think about overtaking..

No can do
But as I stated earlier - we do it in the industrial zone when absolutely no one is around, 1 at a time, not putting anyone at risk except my own car. The speed is too low to smash anything more then a rim and maybe if you would really get unlucky something else too.

 

no dramas..
