Hey,,,

Not sure if this is the right place to say, (new around here)

but i am interested in drifting (allthough definatly need to learn)

Any chance i can join a lobby/lounge just to watch - or get some help?

Im on GMT if that makes a difference.

Thanks.

 

[SFX_Adavicro]

Howgudami, of course you can come drift, as long as you're in a RWD and show common sense I don't see any problem. I might get on today or tonight but not sure yet, I have some things to take care of first. Send my SFX account a friend request and we'll see what happens. 👍

Youll regret what you said when its all done.

 

[SFX_Adavicro]

Bk, it seems like you've been moving for six months or more.

Seriously.

 

[SFX_Pwner]

Bk, it seems like you've been moving for six months or more.

Seriously.

So true! LOL
I agree with Bk though, moving sucks.

 

[BkS]

It feels like it too!!! My new house is like 15 miles away from current one, and there's so much sh** in this house, that in the middle of it all, my mother decides it would be a good idea to stop and do a clean-out >_> I should be in my house already!! hahaha.

I haven't been on GT5 in days, I have such a big urge just to play it, lmao.

 

[SFX_Adavicro]

Look at me, I take GT5 waaaaay too seriously.

Can you guess who I am? Winner gets a nickel.

Oh I didn't know. I'll use punctuation more often.

 

[SFX_Pwner]

I heard through the grapevine about this thing called 'drifting'.. I'm not sure what it is or exactly how to do it but does anyone want to get on GT5 and try it? I just tuned my Bugatti Veyron and I'm getting 100's of drift points with it so I want to try it out.

A caddilac cant float. A lotus can.

 

[SFX_Pwner]

Anyone going to be on late tonight? Probably somewhere around 3am EST..

 

[BkS]

If I'm up that early tomorrow, I can "try" get online with my phone. I'm not sure if it will connect to online lobbies, but it does connect to PSN... after waiting about 10 mins XD. I'm phoning Virgin up on Friday for some internetz! so I'll be returning very soon! Will also post my new rig tomorrow, finally finished moving house!!!! 👍

 

[SPANK]

Im on, join my lounge.

A caddilac cant float. A lotus can.

The whole meaning of that quote is as simple as this... Back in the old days, when Cadillac was the USA's luxury manufacturer, the suspensions on their cars back then were so soft, they would just float over hard-ground, and bounce up and down whenever you'd stop and go. The beemer part, is simply referring to the old days, when BMW was one of europe's fastest saloon manufacturers. For example, the BMW 2002 turbo during the oil crisis, or the introduction of the first M3 cars via the BMW E30. They were light, fast and nippy. i.e. Stingy. So if you put all that in layman terms, "Float like a Cadillac, sting like a Beemer" you get the analogy that this is what you look for in a car. Something with luxury, but has enough oomph to blow your eyes to the back of your head, e.g. A BMW. [:

Now that isn't complicated at all.
