How come the windows we're open? Doesn't that make your car slower?

Nice drift. Buttonwillow is a nice track.

I think at a drifting competition you're not so much after speed as some serious slip-angles. Which those pics certainly display! Nice drifting mate!

Well I hope the windows we're closed when the mud splattered yikes...

In AutoX we run with the windows down to hear feedback from the tires and engine, I suspect that it helps in drifting also.

Yeah but it also affects your acceleration a bit (you get a "parachute effect"). I guess that's why some people argue that a "true sports car" is a roadster.

Great pictures!! I like the muddy M3!!!!

Damn it's pictures like these that make me want an LSD so bad... My car is just so snatchy and un-progressive on the limit unless I'm carrying serious speed.

it does make it slower, but it wasent a time trial event, just a drifting event where you go and play with your car. other then that, it was freaking hot.

drifting, lsd is a must. you dont need power to drift. so i recommend a lsd, and suspension work.
