He had the right idea at first and had it in a empty parking lot. I would say keep it out of the streets cause it only takes 1 " ohhhhh shit " moment to make your car get friendly with another one.


Good shit tho.

its nice to see that someone else is out there that's not afraid to flip a $(@%*. VERY VERY well done my man. instead of entering a corner in second and having the engine bog, try staying in 1st and take it to redline, then just before the corner lift your foot off gas pedal, lightly tap the brake and yank the e-brake (this throws all the weight forward and takes it all off the rear during the slide keep your foot to the floor and bounce the rev limiter. counter steer as needed and use the e-brake to control your rear. for more info on power sliding and rally racing a FF, just pm me!

hahaha i love your technique but im scared of bouncing off the limiter and i dont know how to modulate the hand brake... i just hold it the whole time. i forgot to try and modulate it this time cuz my friend told me i should try it last time. Do you think it's possible to just carry more speed in 2nd instead of using first or are those corners to tight to go any faster?

in those low speed corners like that u need to keep it in second.....

don't press too much gas cuz the road is already wet....

oh shit, you guys talking about drifting on FF....

you cannot correct FF at all....

once you're gone......you're gone.....

there ain't coming back like FR....

that shit is unsafe and a really ugly drift....

keep it on a track and drifting should stick to FR....

impressive videos haha. some more practice and you'll probably improve a lot, but i really don't think you shouldn't be doing that on streets with cars parked on it. accidents happen even if you think you've got everything down, hence the name "accident." i think a lot of people would be extremely pissed if their parked car got hit by a teenager joyriding in the rain. just try to stay outta trouble.

Jeeper, do u really own a Fit? cuz your sig and post kinda seems like you look down on them. I know rotas are cheap but cmon we're talking about a eco-car for under 20k. rota GT-3 in hot pink ftw.. :O

actually recovering my "slides" no it isnt drifting is really easy. If you're on throttle all you do is let off of the handbrake and it straightens out, then you step on the regular brake and stop. Sorry i would get a RWD car but i love my Fit too much now, just gotta wait to fix my sister's RX7

and yeah next time im not gonna try it in neighborhoods. Just keep it to the empty parking lots

Im actually REALLY good at ass draggin. Dry and of course wet.
The Progress rear sway F-worded me up. I noticed after installing it draggin was real hard.

Glad I got rid of it.

One problem with the Fit is it doesnt have enough power to keep them going.

Same here. Weight transfer.

Jason, like I told you before... Get your ass off the street and come to the track.

Wow.... its dumb enough to do that, its even dumber to do that and think its cool, and its straight up stupid to think that's ok to do in a ****ing neighborhood on public roads.

I hate when stuff like this is posted on youtube for the world to see, it makes us all look bad.
