Yeah I love keeping my 67 GT all sideways back to back through the twistys! Thank you sure grip and awesome suspension geometry of A-Bodies!!!! It is Sooo Much fun. Way more fun than taking a corner at Blazing Rediculous speeds (Nascar). A Million times more fun than getting pinned into a bucket seat and watching the ground dissapear (Drag). It's like Dirt Tracking on Tarmac. Well not really. But the Dukes can claim credit for popularizing the Style in the Worlds eye...
To me there is nothing more Exciting I can do in my car than to Yank the wheel hard into a corner and release it to watch my Giant 1967 Steering wheel spin frantically as the car initiates slide. Then reach out and Grab it to keep my suspension loaded correctly. From there it is "Blap" the throttle repeatedly through the corner just to do it again the other way without ever letting it "settle" ... That is it. The coolest thing ever!! I do not need Hot sluts in booty shorts all around my car (Doesn't Hurt though) I do not need 400+HP... I do not need Aerodynamic wings or Super Wide Slicks. I don't even need to hack up my A-Body for a roll cage or 4-Link. I just need some twisty Mountian roads and my 4-speed Dart... And this Thermos, and that's All I need (The Jerk)
Good Times. I do not really like watching the professional drifting events.. Seems over hyped. But get your buddies and find a corner in an Industrial complex and have at it. That is fun!!!! Bring a camera for proof of it being the most Awesome way to waste gas...
