cmon he can do better than that,
on a moderately covered pavement
(i was doing this on the forest preserves here, so no pple driving around)

i was hitting the turns doing 40 mph,
i was using my cadillac back then but, that was beautiful,
my friend damn near crapped his pants when he thought i was gonna fall off the hill
but thats the beauty of a drift isnt it

But you have to keep in mind that a Supra is front heavy....REALLY front heavy. So I think in winter it would tend to just swing way the hell out there...under almost any throttle position. I know on pavement I have to watch it, or it would just swing right around...I don't know how winter driving is yet...I just have speculations

A70's aren't that front heavy. something like 53/47 balance.

so the weight distribution isnt that bad at all then.
but thats with the spare tire and all the knick-knacks in the trunk too right?

best story was not to me, but to my freind who decided to try this big curve in the road for drifting. i was following in the truck aways back when cody (my freind) came up to the corner and there was a semi there, cody thought the semi was over enough to get by, the semi thought the car was going past, when cody started the slide around the corner- he says it was at about 60kph, he found out the semi was right in the middle of the road. when codi tried to avoid the semi he put the car in the ditch sideways slid through it and ended parked neatly behind the semi, smelling strongly of S@#% and it took him a very long time to try that again. i laughed my a@# off.
