and to kinda keep it on topic, i will be drifting with my n/a KA... :P

You'll spin everyone does. Pic up an extra set of stocks or if you can find them oe 16" mustang wheels wider and better offset and usually cheaper because there are tons of them. How much you spin depends on how much you push yourself and how fast you learn but dont worry no one is going to laugh and point or anything drift days are great for learning. Spend some time on the skid pad if you cant do donoughts and figure 8's you cant drift a full course imo.

btw nice vid brain food.. are those 2nd gear drifts?

2nd and 3rd gear I wish I had some video from irwindale that is 3rd from mid bank where I kick all the way full throttle till the apex at the hairpin lots of fun! The pic in my sig is from irwindale.

Thats last sun. All of those courses are 3rd gear entrance. You just need to focus more on your line with the ka and once you get it down you will be just as fast as sr guys in drift.
