I'd rather watch it in dry conditions so it wouldn't depend on the driver AS MUCH.

Only if that had been a wet dirt road would that have been me going too fast and sliding off into the ditch, lol.

first time for me as well....but theres a few things that i noticed.....if the s2k had gotten sideways it would have gained more speed through the turns...he was heel-toeing so thats at least shows that he know about what hes doing, but when going around turns he was completely missing the apex. thats what lost him the speed to pass everyone....he was going inside to out then back in....when approaching the apex u go out, in then back out. what pissed me off about that video is that the FWD's are heel-toeing. whats the fuking point. when u press the brake ur slowing ur car up in the front and rear. why press the gas pedal and the brake pedal. in an RWD the brakes are designed to have more power in the front brakes then the rear. there are many ways to initiate a drift. heel-toe is one, power over or feint is another and the most common way is a very quick yank of the e-brake. u cant drift in an FWD. why heel-toe?

Keeping money in your pocket instead of buying new tires all the time... especially when you don't have a job to pay for them like me

ive seen that one before and the only reason the prelude lost was because of driver error not the car so it kinda sucked, but who wouldnt want a type-S

i cant believe i read this much junk at once. heel-toeing has nothing to do with braking. it allows you to rev-match when going into a lower gear while braking. go find a corner somewhere that requires you to go from 3rd to 2nd. you either have to take your foot of the brake for a moment to rev-match or ride the clutch out. so yeah what is the point of heel-toe?
