Shopping Cart Drifting Poll - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Chad86 · 06-14-2014, 12:02 PM

I always find myself drifting my shopping cart when grocery shopping, which probably means I am trying to entertain myself before I get back on the road.
I find the Costco carts tend to drift the best.

I know there are a lot of us hardcore drifters out there on this forum.

To measure our enthusiasm for the sport of drifting, cast your vote in the poll.

Remember to stay safe out there and always wear a helmet. If you are running boost, make sure to watch out for the regular 'cart' drivers.

I do it too.
And I demonstrate the importance of weight distribution to my kids when I put the 12 packs of soda in the cart.

I used to put packaging tape on the rear wheels of my RC cars so they would drift

Also was an avid shopping cart drifter in the late 90s

Yep i do this. Especially at like a Sam Club or Costco, they usually have super flat and smooth surfaces so it's glides easily.

Anybody drift with a kid on the cart? I remember my uncle used to do that to my cousin and I on the cart.

CAUTION..........cart drifting should be done ONLY in the paper goods isle and when it's NOT occupied ......

first time seeing that video...fantastic photography! so cool

My brother and I would take turns pushing and drifting each other in cart. When we did at Home Depot, we would put a propane tank in the cart and open it a little bit to give the sound of a turbo or a jet engine. We were young and didn't know any better, lol.

Lol hate when we get those carts that have 4 wheel drive (where all 4 wheels turn) (spin/turn are different things in this case)

Jyn · 06-14-2014, 07:53 PM

Should've had a cashier or someone working there and drift around them lol

ArgentoAtl · 06-14-2014, 09:29 PM

Model Citizen · 06-14-2014, 10:04 PM

N_A · 06-15-2014, 04:25 PM

I do it all the time. Only when there's no traffic. I don't want to put anyone in danger.

Plus I don't want anyone to see me doing it. Lol.
