Sweet driftday

Post by Jeroen »

Did a few laps with the E36 328 on Sunday but it was good to see there were still many E30's doing their sideways acrobatics. No E21's though...

Hahaha his face is one in the series 'famous last words' :P

I can arrange some places on a driftday if people are interested, no problem. And then you will bring the... 315?

Well I did a lot of sideways action in 315's and 316's when I was young. And in a few cases it was even intended 8)

Maybe it sounds silly but my E28 likes to drive sideways.
With a bit of moisture it's always fun to drive.

My Baur hates rain and wet stuff you know that. :oops:
And Charlotte might surprise a few on a wet track.

Hey,

Okey, i must say that my former 315 was also tailhappy. :wink:

@WM, your Baur hates everything where water is involved.

BTW, a trackday sound great but I will not enter with the baur ( only observing then).

In our beloved Belgium country, and on summer tires, and lots of rain. The white stallion always want's to go sideways :P

Ive had a few drifting/safety lessons, going sideways with al kind of Opel's, was great fun, would love to do that safe with my 3.16!

Yes, that would be a ver nice meet!
If I still have my e12, I will come with these one - bad tires - very light in the tail - hmmmm 8)
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Most driftdays they wet the track: makes drifting easier and limits wear on suspension and tyres by miles... no prob for taking a street car for a day of sideways fun now!
