Ecspecially in a 175hp, late 80's Nissan 240Sx.....That weighs 1,950lbs withwout a driver......Doing 60-70mph straight at a wall....Then a good downshift, floor the fuel pedal and yank that E-Brake....ALL AT THE SAME TIME.....oh yeah, and turn the wheels too....That seems to help

Howdy guys. Went to Seymour, IN today. Tomorrow I'm headed to Leitchfield, KY. 2 busy days in a row!!!! I've never seen anybody do any drifting on pavement. That would be fun to watch, even better to do!

Late day today guys. Headed out early to Bloomington, IN in the morning. I was in the Clarkston, Leitchfield, Ky area today. That's about 30 miles west of Elizabethtown off the WK Parkway. I get to meet some interesting people doing what I do, and see the state, and some of the neighboring states too.
