Many years ago, in my first car, a TR-4, with its skinny little bias tires, with a contact patch about the size of a computer mouse, i used to drift every interstate on/off ramp. It was just natural, easy, controlled four wheel drift around the corner. I never thought it was dangerous, partly because i wasn't actually going very fast. Fast forward, and i have found on the skidpad, that car control is fun, and very challanging in my SPF.
So i think i will give it a try at an upcoming event at Charlotte, just another way to try some car control. I have done about everything else in my SPF, except rallying, so this looks like a fun, challanging thing to do.
I think being challanged by car control is something that lots of people would enjoy, especially since doing road course events is much more difficult and expensive to find a way to do for many youth, so this probably offeres lots of affordable fun and challange, hence something the younger "rice" crowd would get into. Sorta like Autocross, perhaps.
