it doesnt make sense, my guess is that he used to drive a yellow mustang with scissor doors and wanted to show his friends how good he is at doing donuts.

but the car actually gripped, and all was well until that sneaky turbo boost made him hit the curb.

I think drift "attempts" are WAY more entertaining then actually drifting.

I hope you guys get ATLEAST 6 runs in... @ 20 seconds that course is going to be done in the blink of an eye. Just remember its all about car placement, not going fast. Get close to the cones, keep your eyes up and place the car where it needs to be on exit to setup for the next turn and you'll get a good time.

^ The SCCA website claims 4 runs, with the potential for "fun runs" at the end.

Not real excited about a 20sec course, the lot is small though.
