Default Follow our build - Drift 5.0

My friend and I are building a 5.0 for Drifting. The concept is simple; create a recipe of parts that anyone can slap on their 5.0 and take to a drift event.

Here's the latest video: http://www.drift50.com/david-drifter...ang-episode-12

This time we took the car out to Willow Springs at Just Drift! The new 500lbs/in Eibach springs on the front of the car coupled with all the other changes made since our last time at the oval, made a dramatic improvement. It's been roughly two months since we started this project and it's already come a long way with little effort (and finances).

If anyone is interested, I can update this thread with our progress and as always all the old stuff can be seen at www.drift50.com

I thought drifting was for ricers, but would like to see 5.0's take over and rule.

not a big fan of drifting but i like what you guys are doing, gives it a better twist. i'd rather see domestics taking over import sports than imports taking over domestic sports. keep up the good work guys!

very strange, ive always found fox's to have horrible suspension for this type or driving, so all the power to you for trying something new
