My performance on the 7/31 Ter-tech event

Well, I showed up late into the evening, but I still feel I got more than my money's worth. Last time I counted I only spun out once, and other than feeling like the underdog, I feel like I excelled my performance from the previous event. It's amazing what just a little bit of track time can do for your confidence. I definitely noticed that the Camaro RS brushed up and was able to regain control much better than last time. Big up, bro! Otherwise, I feel I can use a bit more power, which gives me more reason for the 3sgte swap.

How did everyone else feel about their (or someone else's) performance on the track?
 
big ballin rims comign thru, fun messing around and getting NO WHERE NEAR THE WALLS IN MY BABY
 
Amen To That Brother..........i Almost Crapped My Pants The First Time I Spun Out Cause I Was So Scared Of That Wall
 
Yeah dude, Tak is somewhere crying over that 86. It was a good event, bro what you guys think about that van drifting, that **** was awesome. We all thought that dude was gonna filp man.
 
Well needless to say I never did get to slide my 240, but I still had fun "attempting" to tear it up out there in the vigor!
 
Yea, my father also has a Previa, and the fact that HKS makes a turbocharger for them only adds to the temptation of me transforming my father's Previa into a monster of some sort. RPS13, although you wanted to slide about in your S13, I think you did good and at least had fun in your Vigor. You started to slide much better later on in the evening. In the end, it's all about practice and fun, anyway --- that's how I see it.

Thers also a TRD supercharger upgrade for the stock supercharged previas, same engine as the tacoma 4 banger supercharged. ;)
 
My performance.... well all I drove all day was the 2 laps in the Previa..... hehe, had a blast though. Ive been wanting to do that so bad ever since I got comfortable with the van sideways in the rain. Last event I had to work and when I heard it was wet down there I wanted to leave so bad. Ask the the guys from the shop... if you're in Boynton or Lantana and its raining, look out for the sliding van!!!

Kinda embarrased that I spun it though, not sure what happened, I guess a super wet spot cause it just came around too fast... :(

I actually left all the wheels I had inside it to lower the center of gravity and give me more weight transfer... lol


Yea, so when the S13 is done, I'm serious about a drift Previa. Mark my words.

Oh man, you rule! I wish I could have been to make a statement with a Previa, man. I've been beaten to the punch! Let's have a Previa drift battle someday, lmao. I'll need a Previa first, though. Maybe my dad if I can buy it before he sells it off. But hey, you did awesome, and I know you had fun, and that's all that matters. I mean, take me for example, all I did was make sure I learn and have a fun time, and I managed to do a lot better than I ever expected, especially in the wet. Anyway, Super props, bro!
 
great event

I thought i got my moneys worth also being a spectator and only staying for a few hours (Lebbet did not feel good so we left) but it was awesome! it makes me miss having my car up and running soooo bad....even though i suck *** and probably even more so now since i haven't even attempted drifting in about 6 months.

but anyways, Ter-Tech held another great event for us down here, can't wait to see the next ones (I really wanna go to Orlando)
