Trying to drift a MR2

  • I was fortunate enough to be invited to a private session at Driftland last week, and I've been wondering for a while how the MR2 would 'drift'. It was a challenge for sure, but just about got into a swing of things by the end of the session.

    Great driving man, MR cars must be quite tricky to drift, you did well.

    I've had my Mr2 on that track and it's not easy to drift it. You did really really well! That was impressive!

    I’ve done corner exit oversteer but never done drifting. That looked tricky, a whole load of whirling the wheel going on. Can only imagine the short wheelbase/ rear engine combination makes it a much quicker transition and the variety of moisture levels on track looked especially challenging. You gave it a bloody good go ffs Danny, hats off to you mate. As Madge said “God loves a trier!” 😂 sending tyres to hell corner by corner...

    Hey Danny. Will it drift?🤔 This episode is like the automotive equivalent to 'Will it blend?'.😊 And now we know. You were definitely up for the task, but that was one hell of a workout.💪 Obviously, the MR2 was more than a handful out there, so seriously, well done, mate.👏 Shoutout to our good man Walter on the exterior footage, as well. Just an observation, but I believe he likes those S14s. Enjoyed the show as always my friend. I hope you have a great weekend.👈😎👉

    Doesnt he need more grip on the rear? Dont shoot me down - i dont claim to know but im calling more rear grip and and angle kit would help. Please correct me or let me know. Interested.

    • @asiat30
      @asiat30 5 лет назад +1

      Danny's MR-S is track car. He just tryed his MR-S "drift-hability". So angle kit is un-necessar.
      Less grip on the rear make the car oversteer easily. Axles and transmission are less stressed.

      Well it's the lightest car on track,I'm guessing 890+ kgs + Dan's weight,so ploberly in the 900kg+

    • @asiat30
      @asiat30 5 лет назад

      I think that Danny's MR-S weight over 1000kg.
      Engine + trans : 1zz-fe (145kg) _ 2zz-ge (157kg) _ K20A (185kg).
      That's why his DC2 Integra K20A has slightly better acceleration.
      My 2001 MR-S 1zz-fe weight 985kg (hardtop + PPE header + sport cat + lightly stripped interior).
