my tires have life but not much. once it gets closer to mya (zdayz) and I add my new rubber I may trash the old ones for a test lol
lol well he knows what he's doing... I've never used the e-brake or even clutch kicked to initiate a drift.

I was just assuming the OP wasn't experienced enough to be comfortable using just momentum and throttle to step out the rear end. With enough speed, there's no need for e-brake or even disconnecting the brake light fuse

I expect pulling the fuse and adding hydraulic e-brake become more useful when you're looking for sustained drifting on a road course. Donuts are easy.
