Find a big, secluded parking lot.

I used to live in RI, which has virtually NO drift scene. But one of the beaches near my school was a day beach that cleared out completely at night, and had a MASSIVE parking lot. Thats where I learned a lot.

I always go out, drift for about 10 minutes, and then bounce before the cops show. Dont wanna overstay my welcome, lol. There was NOTHING around that spot though, nobody to even call the cops. Now that I'm back in PA, finding good places to practice has gotten tricky.

My spot right now is a cold-e-sack (?) that only has one house in it, and I know the people in that house. A cold-e-sack isnt much room for drift practicing though. Ive got about enough room for figure 8's and doughnuts. I usually set a cone in the middle and try to do donuts around it keeping the cone right at my front fender.

Its a lot harder than they make it look. I keep running over my cone. Im gonna have to get another one soon. Plus a stock KA is basically useless for anything other than 1st and 2nd gear drifts unless its wet out.

This is a pretty stupid question to ask in Public. What you should be asking is where th elocal tracks are, and what nights they hold drift practice.

THIS, is a FUCKING IDIOTIC answer.

The stupidity is too overwhelming, this is closed.
