Default drifting vs stunting

i just got in to drifting like 6 months ago and that **** is madddd fun but so far i paid around 5k (yea i know expensive sport) in damages and tires, but at least slowly getting some skils. I remember when i started to wheelie on a 54 that ****was and still is more fun then drifting and if you ask me much more easyer.Does anybodyon this forum drift?One thing that i dont like about dealing with car people that they are streight up ********....but at least i will be entertained during winter...

$5000 in damages and tires? Do you go to competitions for this or just do it on the road? I guess I've caused a lot of premature wear on tires by drifting but only the back two really. I've never really had to repair anything on account of it though.

body pannels, tires, suspension components that wear out, clutch , lsd ... yea 5k can come really fast actaully. i had two hachi's and a T-2 FC also had a 300zx a while back but that was a freeway runner

Drifting my Durango is kind of tough but do able in the rain and snow. I love to drift but a SUV is not what you should do it in.
