just sharing an experience...
When i was in Mmelbourne a couple of months back, went out with a ex "performance minded" individual who migrated to melbourne from here...
Quite a large group of mostly ethnics come together in much the same fashion that we do..
One said individual stood out. His name is Maurice and drives a blue autech s15 vert'. NA with basic handling mods it produces as much power as the standard s15 turbo. The conclusion is that hes absolutely insane! He was drifting with minimal power taking corners at stupid speeds where if he went off the edge it would of been tearful. His skills would impress most, as he also possess' that detached link that says "your going to die, have no fear if you make it out your a hero"
Everybody knows that melbourne has alot stricter Road regulations (epa requirements, police are strict etc etc) He has encountered the constabulary on many occasions. The last one off memory was him "ghost riding the whip" [riding on the door sill or roof of a car whipping at an imaginary something] at 120kms down a major road. It made the news
Now this..

Three outcomes came out of this.. you dont need stupid power to drift, all performance biased vert drivers are tapped in the head, and to some of the more crazy people.. WE are not ALONE!
Here is also a can of worms.. if you thought that the forums of all major car groups are watched by our boys in blue.. they are. Here is evidential proof...
Insanity!
