My 15-year-old now has his permit and is logging miles driving with me in our 1971 Super Beetle. Last weekend he got his first chance to try drifitng in snow. We shot video on my phone then he helped edit it. (He chose the music and the title, which has something to do with the music.)
I hope this puts a smile on your face:

Oh boy that is fun to do, if you have not done it go try it in a very open lot with no concrete stoppers.

That's how I did it in my Olds 442 back in the late 90s... took that car 400 miles each way to college each way, and remember driving through blizzards down NY 17 when it was shut down still doing above the speed limit and going sideways on curves out of 18 year old stupidity and comfort. Still have that car; neither it nor the Bug see snow much anymore.  |
