That pink one is rockin the drift camber from 2000 hard.

Btw picking that previous drift car sponsored BY MAZDA may not be the best example of a pretty drift mobile. It isn't perfect and is an exception as Mazda would spend unlimited cubic volumes of dollars to keep it pretty and zoom zoomin.

Kyle Mohans car is pretty decent. But literally every drift car up close is just bandaided together.

I've seen hundreds of them and worked on a few.

back to the aggressive conversation.

Taz, any rubbing in the rear? no homo!
did you pre-load your front? because it looks kinda high.

Thanks man, i appreciate it.

I wish i could justify putting a huge wing on my car - i feel like if i did i'd be a mega douche bag poser.
