He fails at RWD then. Tell him to try turning the steering wheel all the way to one side, then dropping the clutch from a standstill next time. If you can't do donuts that way, you fail.

Also, is he a wannabe dorifto?

Tell him to press & release the clutch quickly mid-corner and record what happens

And for the record, clutch kicking is a legitimate drifting method. It also kicks the back end out faster than you can yell "oh s**t!" Unless you're ready for it, you'll end up facing the wrong way... and judging from his m4d jdm drift y0 skills, I'd say he won't be ready for it.

Have you driven one? That's what every other person says that hasn't. I'm not saying it's an awesome machine, but i respect the motor and handling characteristics. I almost bought a track edition.

No, but I'll trust the members of NICOclub (Nissan Infiniti Car Owners) with their general agreement that the VQ35 is relatively underpowered. And with a curb weight of between 3,188lbs and 3,402lbs the Z33 isn't a lightweight.

I realize that they're still incredibly powerful and handle fairly well, but they're not what everyone makes them out to be, and that's my whole point.
