4:30am

Well after the TN meet I got back to Barrie around 4:30am. Still very much awake I decided to try and get some pictures of some buildings for a drawing I have to do. Realizing it was too dark and being scared away from a parking lot by what looked like an angrey drunk man who wanted to kill me and steal my car I drove around till I saw a wonderful parking lot.

I decided to try and do some drifting and to test out the repair jonb I had done earlier that day... I mean yesterday. I did some doughnuts to get started. The fround was nice and wet and had some snow patches. This was perfect cuz it prevented me from making any noise. I started just by trying some feint motion and had little success. I then tried e-braking and found only failure. In the end I just wound up driving into the snow piles and florring it to get some sideways action and just tried to recover. I think I only successfully pulled off 2 drifts at the end of that with probably well over 60 failures.

The cool part was when I was near the end ether the tires or the brakes were so hot when I'd go through the snow piles they would staem.

When I got back to my place I decided to make a final try and pulled off a successful back to back drift sliding around a corner and then spun the car around and slid right in my parking space perfectly. :p

I have concluded from this that I suck at drifting and need a lot more practice. :o
