Just picked up my 328i with s52 cams with 3.23 differential and loving it. Im from south Carolina and we don't have alot of drifting events here and in school so can't travel that much.are there any other sedan drifters out there? Going from drifting a mr2 it all feels smoother with the back end. Sitting on M3 suspension looking into coils soon. who else is out there?

Im in SC, Myrtle beach speedway has events every month with one coming up on the 20th and 21st (drift weekend!) and Streetwise drift hold events up in Charlotte NC and they do a pretty good job with that.

*Also of note the area we have to slide in is very tight more gymkhana than anything but we will be running this first event as a clinic i.e. donuts figure eights and such to give people practice in the basics. We don't have room for bigger stuff yet.... If we get enough people for the first few of these though the owners are more than willing to expand the paved section enough so we could realistically have a badass track.
