Pretty much the same thing, shift the weight, add the power. Don't have the cajones for anything over 3rd. Nothing wrong with getting sideways. I don't think anyone here is pulling mega drifts out of on-ramps.

I'm almost done breaking my FR-S in. Once I hit that 1,000 miles, I'm going to explore some more of the car's potential.

I did 4th gear with nannies on this one S shaped turn and all I heard was tires squealing because I went 70+ on it.

I found the curve on streeview: follow this curve.

Damn, that's a decent section of road. I'll have to try this out, going a lot slower

Haha my mom said she spotted a black FRS in Bowie town center yesterday and the same car up near Ft. Meade.

It was black on black (wide black wheels) as she described it.

It's like 8 seconds worth. I'll take you there one day, and we can go running at Centennial Park. Or head to Columbia mall that way.
