Correct :D Seat time!!!

Tho a basic set up and check over is a good idea, most cars as standard have some adjustment;)

ye im not saying have it arse ways but no need to spend a grand on every arm possible! a set of rear camber arms to keep rear tyers wearing a bit better then drive the thing!! and spend the money on tyres fuel and entry fees untill u need to set the car up to a pro level

heres gems point in a video, mjg's 200 pound shitter, and he won a bdc round in it and all! chopped springs and fuck all set up can be done if youve got the skeeeeels!

In this your after saying exactly all any driver wants........ "it feels perfect for the way i drive and it gos where i want to put it" Sure what more do ya want......... What im saying if a car isn't doing what you want it to do then its a waste of time ya might as well stay at home cause ya only annoy yourself........ The essintials ya need: Good set of coilovers with ride height camber ajustment and dampining:ajustable castor arms tie rods and camber arms and toe arms...... And a hicas lock out or eliminator........ In my eyes every car should have these and yes it is possiable to drift without them but its an awful lot easier with them................

All of that only applies with experience obviously a car will be easier to drift but thats bull when your startin off your wastin your time and money without seat time..... Is say if there was one thing 100% necessary its some form of a lock diff whether it be welded or 2way it wudn have mattered how well the 86 was set up i still would have been utterly s*it my first day out and ive still improved a lot since without gettin some genius of a set up.....
