1. thats your opinion... nothing wrong with that
2. its a damn cartoon but hey
3. spriters? cant drift for shite compaired to alot of other cars
4.i never said the driving style... i ment do your truno up like the 1 in the show
5.suck my dick

ok.. as i said before..
1. the drift king runs an AE86 and can own cars that *should* be far its superior.
2. initial D doesnt just employ the powerslide ideal, but several other drift techniques as well, as it was insipred on the drift kings example.
3. doing your trueno like the one on the show is fine, just measn you like to have a nice car, if you want to put the kanjii on you can, no problem, just means that you have to expect some prick to make a comment about you being a lame arsewipe who wants to "inital D" drift.
4. i was listening to a couple of the guys from "Dark Street Drift" talking today, and i realised these guys were talking initial d.. they were talking about how low their cars were and how it gave them more drift power, how the camber of the tyres was good drift camber..

however, on inspection of the rear of the car, i foudn they were powersliders, without talking to them, first, the camber on the rear tyres was negative, rather than the fronts being negative, thus decresing drift, and the "lowered height" had made heavy gashes along his body kit, but only at hte back end, meaning the front had no motion, and the fact that his gearchange as he was leaving could have been done better by my grandma didnt help him much.
this is what happens to people who take initial D too far.. they get things mixed up..
i really was going to ask him why he had such a bad setup, but i didnt want to be rude while he was eating, so i left it alone.

seriously.. Initial D is not the be-all and end-all of drifting.
its only the beginning.

BTW: EMP... come on.. #5 was being a little bit childish there.
each to their own opinion, i know where a lot of these guys are coming from, sprinters that get wrecked by initial D kiddies are bad for the rest of us in their own way.

i think ae86 is right.. we need to let it go..
initial d isnt all there is to drifting.. the Sprinter is a great car for drifting, as it shows in Initial D, and that is a reason that some people buy a Sprinter, fine, they have to learn the hard way, but for others, they understand that even though it is a great car, it still cant match up to some of the newer cars out now.. unless they can afford to put a small mortgage behind it

Peace, keep it cool hey?
