i know this is a commodore forum and when people think of drifting commodores dont exactly come to mind straight away but they are out there! and im not just talking about holding the tail out around a small 90 degree turn in the wet either. let me know if you like drifitng and what you think about setting up a commodore for the track!

What about Snakies down a dirt road for a couple of K's jumpin of ya Limiter? Jokes.

If I was more of a social person that I might have a car built for Driftin but its fun to watch. heh

There are plenty of drift monaro's. Pretty much a commodore.

Your better off using a car which has proven itself to be a drift car and has a **** load of spare parts for it...

Commodores are family cars - they may drift but there are better options out there.

If you want though go for it, Id love to build a VR drfit pig but thats a lot of cash i dont have...

aZk.

I still say completely ruined. The 86 was the best on the touge, with a huge heavy front end it would lose all its handling capability and be weird as all hell. It needs a light motor with usable power (Like a 4AG) to keep its balance. For something like that you would be better to go with another car to start with, in my opinion. I'm a fan of keeping 80's JDM cars slightly nostalgic! Haha, just my opinion though.
