    That is a badass video...I've had that song blasting here ever since I heard it.
    Editor-at-Large at...well, here, of course!

      I like smoke shows like any other gearhead BUT
      I don't see the point to burn up tires to only run a slower lap

              Drifting is becoming more appealing to me. I couldn't care less about the competition aspect (how the heck do you declare a winner?) but that looks like a ton of fun.

                HAHAHA! funny

                here is how a drift even is judged

                    I totally agree..drifting should be done for the fun factor..not for the competition..burning rubber through the corners are cool.

                        475 whp :D.

                        Heres a build thread about it..LS3+t56.

                        Conversions & Swaps - Camaro 78 -> "70", LS3 + T56, Drifting & track car - http://tonilaari.com/motopark/content/bin/images/large/_MG_2672.jpg I did this project during this spring, it was ex track racecar, bought it without engine & tranny.

                        I did this project during this spring, it was ex track racecar, bought it without engine & tranny.

                        LS3 engine did sit IMO nicely in place with original LS3 vette oilpan, sits low and far back, nearly mid engined Gearbox tunnel had to be remanufactured. 4gen pacesetter exhaust manifolds did fit rather easy in place, little bending ang cutting but couple hours of labour. I used Clutchmasters FX500 cluth and their flywheel in this and after few tests it feels good, and holds up good alltough abuse is bad.

                        Engine is stock besides lunati voodoo cam (65602) and their dual spring set, with Tatech ecu it gave 475whp / 660nm torque.

                        I bought fibreglass front end from vfn fiberglass, changed rearpanel to car and made rearwindom frames my self, no it looks bit older. STill missingg front lip and decent wheels

                        Car weights 1305kg = 2870lb with full tank and w/o driver. Weight ratio is 50.5 / 49.5% with driver. Fiberglass front end, hood, bumbers, doors, trunklid, lexan windows except front screen.

                        It?s has been so far only in Drift use, and i still haven?t quite got used to it. But thought that it evolute pretty good car in that sport eventually. Also planning to drive regular track races with it later this year when drift season is over, need just little suspesion changes then.
