If there are people saying it shows a lack of skill, they're probably horrible drivers that go nowhere near the limit. Not to mention they're not having any fun!<br /><br />Even for a grip driver, it's a skillset you should have and develop regardless... it's knowing how close to that envelope you can go and still have complete control of a car -- and if that doesn't turn faster lap times I don't know what will!Tekniqnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-81533319533350985502009-11-14T15:21:36.280-05:002009-11-14T15:21:36.280-05:00That person must not understand slip angle, becaus...That person must not understand slip angle, because to get the max out of a car there must be some sliding, not big beautiful drifts but there is some amount of sliding involved at every corner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-5283339147524452842009-11-14T14:09:51.940-05:002009-11-14T14:09:51.940-05:00I absolutely agree Umai.

I actually feel that taking some serious coaching in Drifting is the one thing that could improve my Race driving to the next level.<br />Any winter Drifting schools, anyone?

That's missing the point. <br /><br />Furthermore, drifting at a professional level takes the same amount of skill (just a modified skill set) as eaking out maximim grip and lowest elapsed time so respect and high fives to both sides of the fence. <br /><br />Do whatever puts the biggest grin on your face!Umai Kakudohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06952774901709371659noreply@blogger.com
