Smile The so called water cup method

Hey guys,

I know this is gay but after watching Initial D, I'm wondering if that water cup thing really works. I know, I was laughing about it when I started . I tried to hit to it to the max and see if the water would spill, of course I'm trying to do this on purpose so I know how to SOME WHAT control the water which is really hilarious. I say that you guys should try it...even though its so gay. The water cup isn't that full...I only filled it up 1/2 way...but next time I'll do it 3/4's a way. Like I say u guys...give it a SHOT, u might learn something.

1) just because its in a cartoon doesn't make it reality... so if i go by your theory if i can drift and light a cigarette i'll be as cool as Bunta??? aint gonna happen
2) you cant drift in a front wheel car

I remember that and thought about it as well! All your going to end up with is: water in your cup holder, carpet, and/or leg!

TurboDreamz: I don't know if it'll teach u shifting weight in ur car but I guess I can say it has a similar concept.

TypicalWhiteChick: Well, true, just because its a cartoon it doesn't mean u can do it in reality. But as far as drifting...that is still need to be experimented and I don't know if it can be done. It'll be cool if it can though.

VTECTypeR: Yeah, its funny. LOL!

SlvrLx26: TRUE!!!

Everyone: I want to let ya'll know that I had the water jump out of my cup 3 times today. When I was watching the anime over again...it was only filled lesser than 3/4's of tha way, I tried to be stupid and fill it pass that measurement. LOL! But hey, all I got was wet along my leg. LOL!

u know what would be pretty cool? doing that trick and watching the water stay in the cup and then glancing back up at the road and seeing a kid in front of your car as u try to move out the way taking the kids like and your life, while falling down the canyon u light a cigerette and hope to god that u and the kid are okay after all o fit and praying that u will never watch initial d again and then u realize that u are in the hospital and the kid is dead and u have to live life knowing u did that. the shoot yourself in the head cause u cant live with that on your shoulders anymore. peace

The e brake method has yet to be experimented with. I am not so sure if that really works...unlike when I corner with my old car "The so called GREEN ROCKET 97 Integra", at a sharp corner that marks 15 MPH, I had corner that damn thing at 40 nearly hitting the curbs, I would say that my wheels were sitting just about 2 inches from it. If you're able to corner at a high speed while remaining within ur lane...I say that u got some good skills, but just imagine of what u can do when u can take both lanes or over lap the double solid lines.

To be honest I did use tha ebrake only at a cruical point in a corner...I wouldn't say that it worked but it had some what prevent u from under steering but I don't know if it really works cuz I wasn't pushing it to its max.
