August 3rd, 2007 - DriftLive.com

Tyler McQuarrie hit the parking lot and oval at the Orange Show Speedway out in San Bernardino and Drift Buffet was kind enough to let us bring our cameras and check it out.

  1. Worst DriftZone episode ever!?

    How can they follow up a couple of good episodes with that nonsense. And enough with the Porsche already. One would think Hankocks paying for this exposure?

  2. wow it looks like the car can carry a lot of speed sideways and accelerate mid-drift really well..can’t wait to see this one in competition and see what happens with the varying speeds of other cars

  3. It’s not a DriftZone episode. No intro, no host, no credits… just some good footage of the new Porsche.

    I’m quite excited to see how it does in competition, more than that i’m happy to see the car wasn’t a waste of money and is actually driftable. Good luck to Tyler.

  4. Limited,
    You’re looking at the wrong video! This isn’t the DriftZone! Our latest episode is on the main page beneath the video of the Porsche. It features an Advice From a Pro with Stephan Papadakis and a Darren McNamara Unleashed segment.

  5. A recent episode of the driftzone did feature Tylers Porsche, along with an interview.

    Terry with Drift Buffet invited us down to see the car first hand, so we did.

    And no, DriftLive.com is not sponsored by Hankook in any way. You can see the full list of sponsors that support DriftLive by visiting our advertisers index.

  7. I DON’T KNOW GUYS…I SEE SOME OVERSTEER ACTION GOING ON..LOOKS GOOD ON THE BANK BUT LIKE RHYS HE HAS TO SCRUB ALOT OF SPEED COMING IN TO THE HAIRPIN.. TO MUCH SPEED AND BAM OVERSTEER CITY! WE’LL SEE.

  8. lol @ heather talking technique now

    i saw the car in person… its a force to be reckoned with.

    When you got HP and steering angle the thing that will kill you is lack of grip (ask JR), this car has plenty of grip. Squats on its lines and just accelerated out the apex…

    hankook/jic best team in the series now imo

  9. OH YEA..SORRY. TYLER SPINNING OUT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HIS SHORT WHEEL BASE AND RR SETUP..CAM YOU DON’T KNOW SH*T…YOU JUST TALK A GOOD GAME. GO BACK TO BEING A FANBOY STALKER.

  10. what the f**k is heather talking about

    I mean, I could be wrong here, and if I am OKAY, but isn’t oversteer DRIFTING? oversteer = sideways

    am i crazy?

    will heather ever shut up?

  11. Is this drifting? http://youtube.com/watch?v=0Xr-2j6dZ-0

    Comment by DriftLive.com — August 7, 2007 #

  12. You are wrong dumb ass….Oversteer is when you spin and lose drift. Granted technically drifting is oversteering but a controlled oversteer. When talking in the context of drifting oversteer is when the car has a tendency to spin out of drift. Of course the porsche is going to have traction with all the weight of the engine over the rear wheels but that same weight can cause the car to “Oversteer” more then a FR setup. Also the short wheelbase of the Porsche does’nt help. You just proved my point Cam! Your are a “DUMB ASS”!

  13. Every time I read a comment by Heather I throw up in my mouth just a little bit.

    Heather has a very skewed comment to credibility ratio!

    Go learn to drift, respect something that is badass even it it’s not your cup o tea and please put a sock in it.

    Comment by Terry — August 7, 2007 #

  14. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT TERRY…I AM ON THIS SITE EVERY DAY..I RESPECT DRIFTING AND GO TO AS MANY EVENTS I CAN IN SOCAL..AS FAR AS MY CREDIBILITY GOES I DON’T NEED YOU’RE APPROVAL.
    IF YOU READ MY FIRST COMMENT YOU WOULD KNOW THAT IT’S JUST AN OBSERVATION..LIKE IT OR NOT. ALL THE CAUCASIANS START COMING OUT OF THE WOOD WORK ONCE SOMEONE STARTS DRIFTING A EURO CAR AND IF YOU SAY ONE THING THEY START PUTTING THEIR HOODS ON AND COMING AFTER THE ASIAN GIRL..MORONS!

    Comment by HEATHER (the one you love!) — August 8, 2007 #

  15. I think the car is a nice, new exciting addition to the community filled with seeminlgy endless amounts of S-chassis vehicles. As demonstrated in the “speed” magazine article, the 911 can hang nuts with the best of them. They’re just so damn expensive to build. Luckily, john from JIC is a porsche fanatic.

    Heather, if you’re hot gimmie a call.

    Comment by Steve — August 8, 2007 #

  16. Oversteer doesent just consist of spinning out.

    Drifting is oversteering to a extent… oversteering then recovering you can say. A grip driver can oversteer and still not spin out, he can counter steer and recover.

    When i see a drifter spin out I dont blame it on oversteer… thats absurd. I blame it on his technique or setup.

    He might not have the steering angle or the alignment to really hold a deep line with out spinning out. Or he just might not be skilled enough (doesent know when to counter steer or the proper throttle patterns)…not oversteering though.

  17. Thanks Steve:) Unfortunately I’m taken. Oh yea…Terry you’ve obviously been hangin’ around too many San Bernaghetto tweekers:) Eat something please…I’m suprised the draft from all those drift cars has’nt knocked you on your ass already…Maybe they have:) You know you love it! Call me…..Sike!

    Comment by Heather — August 8, 2007 #

  18. THAT’S TRUE CAM…BUT WHAT I WAS SAYING IF YOU PAYED ATTENTION IS THAT TYLER WILL HAVE TO SCRUB ALOT OF SPEED WITH THE PORSCHE BECAUSE IT HAS ALOT OF WEIGHT IN THE BACK WHICH CAN MAKE THE CAR EASIER TO SPIN…DUMB ASS. IN COMPETITION WITH OTHER CARS THAT DON’T HAVE A TENDENCY TO “OVERSTEER” AS MUCH HE WILL PLAY HELL CONTROLLING IT AND WON’T BE ABLE TO COME INTO A CORNER AS HOT AS SAY A S15 OR S14…DO I HAVE TO BREAK EVERYTHING DOWN FOR YOUR KINDERGARDEN ASS!

    Comment by HEATHER (the one you love!) — August 9, 2007 #

  19. Heather… have you even seen the car run yet? In person?

    If not stfu and hold your opinions and uneducated hypotheses to your self.

    Oh yea, San Bern tweakers huh… those tweakers are going out and are actually getting good seat time while you still bitch and complain on the net…

    armchair enthusiasts

  20. yeah don’t worry about heather fellas, she’s on this website every day.

    also she knows everything about drifting, after all she’s been around drifting for a while now and she’s a driver herself, right heather?

    right?

    p.s. it’s “paid” not “payed.” stop that shit immediately. SPEAKING of kindergarTen asses.

    Comment by cfrost — August 10, 2007 #

  21. Your a real winner…Still have’nt learned how to spell huh…All that tire smoke from sitting in the stands I guess :) It’s “HYPOTHESIS”. You’re pretty much a winner when you try to use those big words and fall on you’re face when you mis spell them…Next time use the word “OPINION”. It’s alot easier to spell and it’s in your I.Q range :) LOSER! Don’t you have some stamps to collect or something…If anyone with sense would just read my first comment they would know I was’nt bitching..Stop twisting my thoughts to form you’re pre-teen fantasies!

  22. You stupid (Colin can come up with better names to call people).

    I swear for the hope of humanity that somebody is fucking with me and that there’s nobody as dumb as you are using the internet.

    you’re*
    haven’t*
    misspell*
    your*

    here, this will help you learn how to use your/you’re, since you DON’T KNOW HOW TO

    http://www.english-zone.com/verbs/your1.html

    also contractions aren’t working for you, just separate the words you’ll look like less of a retard

    I’m not even the kind of grammar nazi that gets on people’s asses on forums, but if you want to go around calling other people dumbasses then you should at least run your shit through a spell check if you don’t know how to spell shit correctly yourself.

    you will be the death of drifting.

  23. never mind, i give up

    Comment by cfrost — August 12, 2007 #

  24. Cfrost what the hell do you think you’re gonna do if I don’t stop immediately…You’re a little bitch.

    Comment by Heather — August 12, 2007 #

  25. I love how these drift wannabes just can’t ignore me….People with any sense at all would just ignore me.There is alot of passion on this site. Very commendable boys;)

    Comment by Heather — August 12, 2007 #

  26. Please someone say something about how I used “there”. If I was’nt here all you guys would be talking about the same old s**t. I bring the spice to driftlive..I’m sure some of you boys have other things in your life besides drifting? C’mon:)

    Comment by Heather — August 12, 2007 #

  27. I will continue being a drift wannabe as long as I live.

    but when I get an s13 and I start drifting….ohhh you’re in for it.

    Comment by cfrost — August 12, 2007 #

  28. Shut up you blimey #$%^! We all know girls can’t drive or vote. Its broads like you that make drifting a cesspool for STDs and low budget porno flicks. Yoshie is rolling around in her grave (if she were dead) at the disgusting manner in which other dames attempt to behave whilst in the world of the drifty.

    P.S. - that car looks like it will probably cost a lot to fix if it ever crashes.

    This might also help. The only time someone like you should be using contractions is when you’re giving birth. You still can’t figure out where the apostrophe goes, so let me give you a few examples (you can reference this later in life)

    can’t
    won’t
    wasn’t
    didn’t
    you’re
    wouldn’t
    i’m
    isn’t

    here’s another link for you. it has flashcards and lots of colors that i’m sure you’ll love

    enjoy

    I’m going to go back to being a drift wannabe right now, ttyl!

  30. You love me..That’s great thanks. I guess you must have alot of time on your hands to take time out to teach little ol’ me:) “Does’nt” suprise me. Oops..I did it again..Guess you can’t teach a cute dog nerd tricks! “Your” like a drift king huh? I “new” it. Am I under “your” skin yet? Sure I am:) Meet me at “D1″ (a mans series) in October and I’ll wipe “your” ass for you Mr.frosty.

  32. you’re not getting under my skin heather, you’re just making yourself look like an idiot to everyone who reads this :)

    Comment by cfrost — August 14, 2007 #

  33. Weak sauce! Looks like a high school kid in a parking lot! No angle and slow as all hell. I can say this because “Drifting” is a judged sport. You’re not seeing who finishes first so obviously the winner is in the eye of the beholder.I may not be a drifter but I have seen enough drifting to make my “Hypothesis” as Cam would say. My eyes say all the “Hardcore Emo” music in the world could’nt make this drifting look exciting. You can’t polish a turd boys…So stop trying! Catch phrases and cool drift club names all over your car don’t make you good….It just fools all the consumerist anglo saxon boys out there…Oops did I make a racial remark. I’m sorry:(……Sike!

  37. Cool…….and your point? Slavics can suck just like everone else. No discrimination here buddy:)

    Comment by heather — August 16, 2007 #

  38. Tylers crash = see my first comment:)

    Comment by Heather — August 16, 2007 #

  39. nobody wants to go through the pain of reading what you had write twice.

    Comment by cfrost — August 17, 2007 #

  40. Thanks..I know I had it “write” twice:)

    Comment by Heather — August 19, 2007 #

  41. Heather, I hope you feel cool since you can read the future.
    Maybe you know that I’ll still think you are a poser idiot next week too then?
    Calling me names won’t help either.
    You Asian…. BFD I am not impressed. I think your comment about wiping Colins’ ass at D1 is awesome… will you wipe mine too? I’ll make sure to take a huge dumper right before and then run around to smear it all up on my cheeks. Why does it have to be D1? I bet you couldn’t even run the oval at the NOS center.

    Why don’t you just show up at the track. Pick a date. I’ll pay for it and DriftLive can come out and video tape you wiping Colins’ ass.

    Wanna touch a skyline? I have 2 in my garage. I drift them both.All you have is nerve damage in your hands. (Maybe from spending to much time typing shit about people you don’t even know.)
    I doubt you could drift if you were holding onto a log in the middle of the Colorado River.

    Sincerly,
    a guy who runs drift events, writes tech article for Super Street, drives for Electronic Arts, and will put you in the wall!
