Sun, July 3, 2005 - 6:38 PMHahah... yeah, I just got my S14... in time for the last spring snow. I went out into and unplowed area, thinking it would be fun... well understeer is lame, and boring. When I kicked it into reverse, that's a different story... I could actually turn... donuts! Yeah... snow is FWD or AWD... RWD is just like trying to push a sled... if it turns, it's not in the direction you want, most likely, you'll find it doesn't turn at all. Weee.. wait... what? Wow... that was anti-climactic. But fishtailing in the rain is FUN! Not drifting though... but if I'm even a little bit sideways in an S14... IT'S DORIFTOMONKEYSAKEcoolcoolcool... right? Hahah... yeah... because it's... nevermind. -

Mon, July 4, 2005 - 4:24 AMStock S14 with the peg-leg diff? Things behave differently in snow and really show you strange things. A clutch-kick does nothing in snow, but if you do a feint really slow, you can get an FWD to do a damn good drift. Try again with some different techniques...
Also, I suggest dirt roads over snow, much more accurate middleground, and less dangerous. Plus you get to be all WRC style. -

Tue, July 5, 2005 - 1:11 AMYeah, the open diff is great for... making that one wheel peel out indefinitely...
I don't think with real snow on the ground it would matter too much how I approached the drift. Once you have a good amount of snow under the front wheels, you're going in a straight line.
There are no dirt roads here! Wait... sure there is... somewhere. There are dirt roads everywhere.
I had a curb experience recently, and I'm not really interested in a ditch experience, or a fence, or anything else harder than my car.
I think if more people knew how much money hitting a curb can cost... less people would do it. Hahah... yeah. -

Re: Drifting in snow!!!!
Fri, July 8, 2005 - 12:21 PMugh. One of my friends drunk-drifted her idiotic self and her FC RX-7 into a curb, and we had to do a lot of suspension work to make that beast driveable, as well as ditching her pretty schwank deep-dish rims. I surprisingly never had a curb-tap with my corolla. I saw a few people who were good enough to use curb-taps to correct their line, but that's not my style.
