Well it is time for a change up, I support grass roots drifting so I went Saturday to drift at VD030 but due to my new work schedule I ended up showing 2 hours later then I needed to be. It sucks, all I can do from here on is improve myself for this. I might be really putting my fun time a side a bit until I get more grip of both my finances and my car now I can keep rambling on about what I need to do but I rather get on with my blog about my fun day.
I kinda got angry with myself but I wasn’t sure if I was going to or not, I was a bit afraid that I might break my car. Never nor less I left my house around 9am showed up at 10am. Checked in and got my car inspected, I throw on a pair of used tires and tossed myself in the skid pad, where I went to start my practice. I started with a few doughnuts then a few figure 8 then I started to overheat and my first set is toast at the same time. I went to pit and grab lunch, at this time I went down and snapped a few generic phone pictures.
Around 1pm is I put on the federals RSR959’s on and I have challenged myself to drift on. I assumed at the time they where 40 psi but ended up being 33 psi. After a few runs on the track it was just being way too grippy, and I had Waylon give it a try. And he couldn’t handle it it was driving a whole new car and my rear tires being at 33psi we drove over to a tire changing place to fill up to 60psi.
Waylon tried again but still no luck with her, so I took the wheel and I still struggled with the first initiation but I did Clear the second turn with a nice long drift.
I was offered to drive Waylon’s car a turn. First his seat was tight as hell, and I couldn’t fit the seat belt as I am a bigger person. At first his car ws tricky at first and very intimidating but it felt extremely easier then my car, more like push clutch and instantly drift. Then it started overheating 🙁 so i continued on my road with my car and rocked the second corner some but this is where it got bad I couldn’t see the road as the sun was setting I kept getting blinded by the sun so I ended up going off roading alot of times.
After that few runs I went to the skid pad and finish up the last set. This was the time for shut down, as the sun sets it was closer to 5pm.
My car feels like this guy in California Julian’s car, my goal is to get as good as he is. I am pretty sure I am on that road already
