nope, so it was a real leap of faith trying to get that rear to stick out! Next time when I have more courage, I WILL go faster and 4 sure MOAR angle hahaha

dude the moment before I brake and prepare to turn.. SO much adrenaline is just going through my legs and fingers.. it's so awesome.

Nice moves.

Did you e-brake to kick the ass out ?
Or a quick right/left flick of the wheel to weight transfer her out?

LOLOL you're funny, rest assured that the guy behind me is my buddy and I made sure that he knew I was gonna do that on that turn specifically.

And the funny thing is I was doing that the whole day and never once did I get a black flag, this 350z drifted the same turn only once and was taken off the track for the rest of the session. In fact, my friends told me everyone watching was clapping for me.. FIT PRIDEZ

I think around 80, followed by pretty hard braking.

FWD over steer is a lot of fun, but usually yields slower times. The faster the corner, the less this becomes necessary. But it comes in handy on a Gymkhana course. It's challenging to get the back end out with that rear torsion beam.

Looks like you were having loads of fun, but my advise would be to come in as wide as you can, hit a later apex and reduce your slip angle.
