Dude, I go on this hilly road. Its a little rough b/c the roads are a little too gritty for my tires liking. But I still go b/c its the best place ive found. Another place I've been too is this parking lot near a mall in a nearby city(Trying to keep the spots secret). we stop going when a bunch of honda kids started showing up and annoying the hell out of us. Anytime I go to practice, I always wait till 2-3 in the morning so that way I only put myself at risk for injury.

theres this wide ass street at the outskirst of the neighborhood, nothing around there, anyways i just go there around midnight and practice my shit, according to the driftking, if you wanna practice gettin a feeling for drift, try doin some 180's and simple 90 degree turns, just start messin around with that stuff, and make sure its not an area with loose gravel and shit, or a shit load of room for error

i'm in alabama there are actually a few dirt tracks in my area and about 2 hours from here in montgomery theres a piece of pavement next to the drag strips for the drifters...there aren't usually many people out there and i've yet to make it to actually go drift out there...i stick to abandoned parking lots in dothan like the old lowe's building its where the rice car teams meet up at...just ask them about their flywheel horsepower....retards
