there's nothing good about drifting or racing...you're basically pushing your car components to its limits needlessly

I honestly have never experienced anything too bad drifint in an auto, as long as you got the pwr to lay it down, it will get sideways. BUt for the long run, i'd most definately chose a 5spd, you can only go soo far in an auto until the when you really need a 5spd to do all the tricks etc...

But if you would really like to start practicing, get LSD. Its the best way to go.The Coilovers to set ride height at appropriate tracks. Practice in small lots .

Here's a vid of me screwing around waiting for my supra to get out of the shop: Stock auto, open diff.

I beg to differ, racing and drifting on a sc thats automatic is fun and is a sport in my opinion. Sure one is pushing the limits and ****ing up his car, i race and drift with my SC, my auto transmission is on its final days, i wont stop, i think so long as we are responsible we could do as we please, some people **** up their cars and get another to **** up, i in the other hand **** up a tranny and will get a new one, i always have my sc well maintained and wash it every week to assure it doesnt get alot of wear and tear. Having a car and investing money is pointless if your not gonna have fun and use those expensive *** coilovers or intake or new exhaust. etc.
