Hooligan? Why, it's a closed bit of road.

[Captain Muppet]

Definitely skillful, possibly hooligan too depending on whether the road was closed or not.



>waits for someone to point out that it would be faster to go round the corners at a less fun angle<

He just look like he is struggling to get grip?

[Buff Mchugelarge]

Nicely done

Looks like the road is under contruction/ closed. I reckon the lot from BRAKE who've infiltrated PH will be along in a minute.

If you want traction you don't use lots of throttle and constant opposite lock for bend after bend. You use less throttle and you won't use any opposite lock other than the occasional dab to kill oversteer.

Looks like good car control to me!

I often get a bit bored with 'demonstration' style drifting where its quite obvious they're travelling at about half the possible speed in order to make lots of smoke. Much prefer the rallying style where its sideways in the interests of going fast. But that one was fun.

[Riley Blue]

The appeal of drifting has completely passed me by - must be an age thing.

He could be skillful and a hooligan.

[Tartan Pixie]

Skilful - Given where the cameraman's standing he's clearly got a lot of faith in whoever's piloting that supra.

[cerb4.5lee]

Skilful for me plus the Supra isn't exactly a light and nimble machine so hats off to him in my book and I enjoyed watching that.

[FussyFez]

How can anybody that's capable of such things not be skilful?

The ride drive M5 bloke (RIP) was a hooligan.

[soad]

Drifting? That's easy! I could do it with my eyes closed.

LOL. Strong username to post content correlation.


I think that was pure skill... not many hooligans could do that.

[Jasandjules]

Skill. Several consecutive corners held like that is not luck.

There is a YouTube thread at the top. Ta.
