    How's your handbrake?! I've never drifted a long ass naturally aspirated car so I'm probably not your man for tips here dude I'm afraid!

    Best thing that happened to me when I was starting out drifting was getting someone who knew what they were at in beside me.

    After that all I can say is have fun! Don't take it too seriously

    Yea exactly,you will find your own way to suit how you drive,weather it be throw the car at it,kick the clutch or simply handbrake and power over,if you are doing the later make sure your handbrake is adjusted properly,and decent brakes all round in case of emergency.

    Also jst have a blast,you are only learning,so you wil spin alot,don't get disheartened,stay at it,if you are frustrated you will loose interest,or somtimes it helps to get f**k angry and throw the car around the place.

    Don't try be a HERO

    More or less, I aint shit compared to some of the lads on here but I'm gettin there...

    What specs on the 325? the stiffer the better so if your doin it on a budget chop the springs and get a few strut braces, maybe a hydro handbrake if ya feel like splashing out a bit

    iv trying to drift bmws before and failed badly,
    id use the handbrake to break traction and leave things easier on the car,
    then power on as required,if its dry id say you'll need to be aggressive with the accelerator and revs to keep her moving

    Should be grand so, well try starting off by clutch kicking coming outta the corners and practise catching it when it goes out, then start handbraking coming into the corners and once you get the hang of them just put the two together thats basically how I've been dooing it, wet weather is good to practise in as ya dont need as much speed or power but at the same time ya cant stop as quickly....
