Just thought you all would like to see what it's like in Puerto Rico. Just so you know, I did not go out and find the nastiest section of road I could find and taped it. This is just your average road that happened to be in my home movies on my way back from San Juan. My mom was taping, so at some points the camera is catching scenary instead of the road, but you could imagine what it'd be like driving through it. Again, this is NORMAL for Puerto Rico! It gets waaaaaaaay better. On my next trip I'll try to find some really nice roads to record, preferably at dangerous speeds.
 
cool.. interesting lyrics to that song (good song though) hahahaha i should have turned my volume down from max before i opened it.. cool roads though.. im going to have to take a trip down there..
 
I seriously need to get to PR man, I loved some of those turns, but that one with the turn with no guard rail and it drops straight off into a house, ouch, I can imagine that dinner. WOOO! Anyway, love that song, and I'll holla back.

No way Jose!!!!
Kinda reminds me of some of the roads we used to rally in Newberg OR....except the roads in Newberg are all gravel. More importantly, no one's on them.....
 
That was something different from the usual stuff one see here...:)

Looking at the vid I was thinking... the road is a bit narrow... but I can picture drifting it.. and what line I'm going to use... geez... I must get out more!!:)
 
OMG, I finally got to have some fun in my AE86 tonight, you should see some of the roads around here. My mom was teaching me to power shift, and once I got the hang of it she took me to this place she's been checking out and let me play around. Its all touge like that, but its all abandoned, no traffice, no nada, just pure playground material. Even my little 4A-C is still a 4A SEries engine, and that destinctive sound had my heart in my throat every time I threw a rev into it. I actually got it sideways, which is a miracle for that little poc crap, lol. Drifting IRL is SOOOO much more fun than GT3..... now if only I had some money to put into my car...... SOME1 GIVE ME MONEY DARNIT

Working on it, I have to get my license first, I live in the middle of freaking nowhere, lol. I'm probably going to go to work for the people my aunt works for and keep their computer network running, some pretty good money in that :)



And YES, my mom was teaching me to power shift o_0 my mom rocks, she used to race road rally (thats like racing touge but gripping instead of drifting) up north in Massachusetts, she's an extremely good driver. There is only one problem, in the US versions of the 86, the gas pedal sits a good 2 inches lower than the brake pedal, so it's damn near impossible to toe and heel unless you wear a size 4 shoe and you have double jointed ankles, so before you can toe and heel you have to do a little *customizing* if the gas pedal, hehe.

oh btw, if you want to see just how much "in the middle of nowhere" I am, just check the pics of my car @ www.2epiphany.com/ae86.html
 
Spain is country with lots and lots of mountains and almost evry little road could be a drifting road. And there are lots (you can't imagine how many) of mountain passes. And all spanish rally championship goes along this type of roads.
