Hey guys, recently had the pleasure of taking my M2 on a drift day.

Car was great, few issues with overheating diff and limp mode, the latter of which I think was connected to the tuning box.

I am by no means a pro drifter, much better on track 😂. Anyway, hopefully a fun watch, check it out:

🤣😂 had to be done. I’m sure it will be popular though.

Looks like a fun time!

Was this a learn to drift event? Wonder if I can find one in New England. All I can find that is local to me is autocross.

Pro tip to self: Do not buy this car when they offer it up for sale

You can't anyway, so you don't have to worry.

What’s the state of your tires after the event?

We have "Drift what you brung" events here in the UK. So you can show up with whatever you own and send some skids!

I did. Please allow me to re-phrase the question: what is the state of tires not shredded during the drifting exercises?

I see you’re in DE. Too bad you don’t have a M car, we could have hung out

You speak English beautifully but I detect an accent. New Jersey?

08109, exit 4 back in the day. I was making a joke though about OP whom on the video with what to my American ear is a very hard to understand accent. But since he’s from the place where the language was invented, I was being ironic.

ourlee · 01-30-2024, 09:40 AM

Honestly, I’m looking at C8s, 718s, Emiras and M 2 3 4s. This board is the most fun.
