melandris drifting a bike

pretty impressive imo....

 

that's bad a$$.

 

i wana drift....without crashing

 

I would call that sliding not drifting, drifting is not a race of speed as much as it is of how much sliding they can get there cars to do and speed is not the concern.

I saw a drifting race in Long Beach last year and it was fun to watch but i really do not like it. Racing is all about speed and how fast you can finish the race, drifting seems to be more like a ballet and about sliding, not speed. If you do not slide your car enough you are penalized.

Those cars could be faster if they were set up for proper racing and not to be so loose, loose equals more sliding and less speed.

I do wish I could slide my bike though [>:] nice video.

 

I love it!

 

yeah thats awesome, drifting in general is pretty cool i used to be a master of it on this xbox game but i suppose that doesnt count lol

 

Anyone notice he was one-handing it in the drift, with power on?

 

Man that was james bond kinda kewl. Flashing the "i'm #1" WOT and sliding that rear through the turn like a import tuner on a friday night. He's the shizznit yo.

 

thaught you sportbike guys would like that

 

you thought right lol
