What Mike / Touge Factory said.

I've been going to ClubFR drift events since 2005 when I just started drifting. USAIR is very friendly to beginners with a lot of driving time and instruction if you want since there is a beginner circle/figure 8 setup in the parking lot area, an intermediate track layout, and an advanced track layout all running at the same time with about 30-40 drivers.

I love street drifting but I cant stress enough how much fun drifting on the track is and how much you can learn in just one day on the track compared to trying to street drift, avoid cops, and a lot of other factors. I also hope ClubFR will be throwing Drift 101's again this season.

I brought my FRS bone stock right after break-in to a Drift Day at USAIR last year. Although I do have experience drifting there, it was my first time ever trying to slide the FRS and all I kept thinking was, a bone stock car can do this?!

My videos from USAIR.
