How he pulled off the ever elusive FWD-Jetta-drift-off-a-cliff!

Sad.

[240love^_^]

:duh: Oh god. Not again!

[jackjack]

oh what the crap..............

reminds me of this local kid that pulled the ebrake in his civic, and crashed into the wall at his local high school. said he was trying to show off for the girls. wow.

[DUFFM4N]

give him the chair!!!!

[Koopa Troopa]

"He apparently didn't do it very well," Trooper Gilbert Mares said of the driver's attempted drift.


LMAO... Holy crap that's awesome

State Trooper 1
16 year olds driving on permits 0

What an Idiot

[muddafakka]

I wish I could have seen that personally.

Probably would make my day.

"..attempted a drag racing maneuver called a "drift".
Didn't know that.

I wish I could have seen that personally.

[Quail]

What a horrendously written article.

And yes, more stupid kids giving the scene a bad name :(

[steve shadows]

^ no that's a good thing

When they start using the propper terminology, that is when you should be afraid, because then they can start specifically tailoring litigation and laws to rape "Drifting" not "Sideways turn brunouts" or whatevre they give tickets for now.

[DreamN]

Population control is all I see...

[azndoc]

Oh man.... That's all. Love the cop's comment.

[IIIXziuR]

Rubbish, it's all rubbish!
Good riddance. I hate silly kids who do this sort of stuff

[CrazyTrance]

wow.... idiots

uggggg


what the shit... drag racing maneuver????

god damnit. will the stupid people go find something else to do already

[Tops*]

"He apparently didn't do it very well." Thanks, Trooper Obvious. This reminds me of the drunk man playing roulette with me a couple nights ago who said, "If I win, I am a winner." LOL.

It's all about that FF (front-front) drift. Influenced by FF (Fast and the Furious).

[FaLKoN240]

Still not as bad as the guy that drifted his Cavalier off of the top of a parking structure.

[98s14inaz]

Dee Dee Dee lol

[ravinaziankid]

Wow I didn't know drifting was a drag racing maneuver...next they're going to say it's the fast and furious maneuver. Why do stupid kids do stupid things? Oh wait, because they're stupid..

[TheRonTom31]

I was given a ticket for wreckless driving after been caught practicing in my works parking lot even though I had permission from my boss....in fact he was standing there watching and he owns the property:wtf: SO far I guess there is no law against "DRIFTING" they just call it what they want.

[Antihero983]

too bad it was only one jetta that went off the cliff.....

further proof that.....VW Owners=Fail.

[unlegendary]

what's worse is RWD drivers giving drifting a bad name. i like how the state trooper commented though hahaha.

[MikeisNissan]

Watched too much Initial D then attempted and failed.

[Rod]

wtf - a jetta??? a freakin jetta??? tisk, tisk, tisk....

[alindeman1989]

Way to go dumb ass.

[drift-it]

All and all I think we're doing pretty good as a community, I mean I've only seen maybe 5 articles about kids trying to "drift". Most have been front wheel drive cars. It's not like some kid drifted through an intersection killing a mom who was walking with here other kid and also slammed into a daycare killing other toddlers. Thats when we should be worried. *knocks on wood*

[blasting_speed]

The funny thing is that he tried it with people in the car.

[S13Leprechaun]

idiot.. i love just cause the guy went off a cliff they assume he was so called "drifting" his faggot ass FWD jetta... oh god i can see where this sport is going.

[status:one]

I was thinking the exact same thing since i watch that b4 heading into work today

[HyperTek]

1 down.. a nation of wannabes to go.

[!Zar!]

A 16-year-old who attempted a drag racing maneuver called a "drift" only to lose control of his car has been charged with a series of driving violations including reckless driving, the Colorado State Patrol said today.
Uhh... What???

[ericcastro]

AWSOMENESS

I love it!!!

and I really love this,

"He apparently didn't do it very well," Trooper Gilbert Mares said of the driver's attempted drift.

[ByeByeSti]

god damn teens that watched way to much tokyo drift...

[jayriles]

well heres anoher prime example of dumbass's in FWD cars that attempt to drift and end up destroying there cars and themselves at the same time, i agree with the trooper when he say" He apparently didn't do it very well," o well this is what what happens when you try to drift the undriftable you end up 200 ft down in a ditch and put you and your friends in the hospital

[muddafakka]

Didn't Franky Muniz (sp?) buy that car? Gayest graphics ever. Nothing says I wanna ride a penis more like mounting up on a rocket.

Yeah he bought it. I think there were two of them. He got the one that got shot up.

i blame rally racing.

especially the 2wd class.

and the O-zone depletion!

[PhAtXSuMo]

i used to pull the ebrake in my Accord for the hell of it lol... what the officer said was freaken hilarious though

[DataXUnknown]

man i hate when kids try to drift a fwd car...

although i thought of the guy at the track drifting the blue honda fit, that was pretty tight hahah but he aint no kid.

so the 16 year old kid hit the gaurd rail and just rolled along the rail? how fast was this guy goin? must have been like 80 or somthin...

[Edgar]

Can we change it to Florida Fail to Colorodo fails

seriously

wow

[shmiddy]

if your gonna drift in the streets, AT LEAST HAVE A RWD CAR!!!!!!!!! hold crap!!! oh and keep away from cliffs

[lazy240]

hey is there any videos of that falken ef drifting i wanna laugh

[stev3]

i wouldnt say a fwd cant powerslide cause if you use the same techniques as you do in a real drift you could make a fwd do exactly what a rwd car does maybe not as great.. but lets leave that to the pros....for now all beginners should buy a rwd car (not a smart car) first and then learn

Actually no...The very design of a fwd car eliminates Power sliding in the mannar in which you are thinking...

applying "power" in a FWD will correct a Rear wheel skid more surely than any other method. The reason your rear wheels slide is for WHATEVER reason they have substantially less grip than the front tires. By applying power, You take away the front tires available traction for cornering, and convert it into accelerating, with no more traction left to oppose lateral motion, the front tires will begin to slide on the same arc as the rear wheels ..HENCE the car STOPS rotating.

You cant drift /powerslide a FWD car...To get the same "motion" requires entirely different techniques that disqualify it as a "drift" IE you CANNOT sustain an oversteer slide with throttle and steering alone...You just cant...it is against the laws of physics in a FWD car...You can modulate the ebrake (constantly) AND floor the gas ..but thats just dragging your ass around.

"power" sliding in a FWD car = Understeer in the most general since, Because applying power causes the front tires to loose grip before the rears do...hence, the fronts take the widest arc, not the rears.


Sorry for bumping an old post..but i had to comment

[240trainee]

Why can't they just call it being a jackass like dudes have been doing ever since the invention of the wheel.

Too much reading.

dude.. you could fight this. I dont know what the state laws are there. But i did a burnout in my stang infront of my work. I seriously sat there doing the burnout for about 3-5 min. I just had bought new tires&wheels. But still had good tread on the rear tires. So ya.. long story short.. A police officer pulled up. Tried to write me a ticket.. (this same cop has given me 5 f'n tickets through the years..) so i went to court.. and long story short.. i was on private property. Had Written permission by the owner (had to buy this from my boss.. for 5 bucks.) and the cop was put on suspension for 2 weeks w/out pay for harrassment..:fawkd: haha..

but ya.. good thing that jetta wrecked.. FUCKIN IDIOTS who THINK they know how to drive!! :2f2f: Go to driving school.. LEARN.. FROM A PROFESSIONAL!!

[jackjack]

^hmmmm interesting. i've always wondered about the whole private property thing.
