Hello,

I have found this video on another forum. I did never think that Lanos could ride in this way

nah.. he looks like he has control. He does repeated passes.

At least hes not doing it on a highway or on a street packed with pedestrians and other cars like those arab drifters. Looks like theres no one else in sight except for the camera guy...

Control? In a spin like that? Only control you have is hoping you're pointing it in the right direction as you're going round that quick you probably can't even tell, it's stupidity, not skill... The only thing i will give him, is, as you said, he looks to be doing it in a concealed area with no one else about.

I mean control as in he is able to do it repeatedly. But still, if you look at those ''arab drifiting'' videos, they do exhibit some mad control...dodging cars and stuff. But like I said, they are @$@^$&^*()) morons for doing it in public places. If you want to kill yourself, don't drag others into it....

controlled or not... its not drifting. its a drift... seeing as the car is drifting down an icy road.
so i guess the original title justifies that, ie: "Lanos DRIFT".
if it were "Lanos DRIFTING", then we'd have had a whole different case on our hands here,
as there would be the implication that someone is attempting their hand at the wonderful sport of Drifting...
... in a FWD Daewoo Lanos.
I admit, i've seen a FWD Honduh Civic in the D1GP, however, things did not go well for him.
i think we need some sort of clarification on the word "drifting", as it is misused a lot.
i wont be clarifying it, as i'm too lazy.
but REAL drifting involves controlled slides, not spins.
drifting does not occur down a straight road.
also, if you were to spin like that in a drift competition, people would laugh...
...and think the driver is an idiot.

it should be "lanos spins uncontroled" its hard to have control on ice, but you can have control in starting a spin but not where u end up, one of his spins he almost goes off of the road!!!!!
