Pro Drifter Reacts to Jimmy Oakes Drifting

  • I have made drifting reacts from pro drifters to grassroots drifters to UA-camrs and everyone in between so it seemed fitting to react to Jimmy Oakes! Starting with a Nissan S13 240SX with minimal car mods, he learned to drift and initially focused on driving rather than building his drift car. This seemed to pay off as he quickly was drifting in advanced group, then tandem drifting, and learning more advanced drifting skills. He then started building and drifting different cars from a BMW E30, turbo Mazda Miata, turbo Nissan S14, and even a RWD converted Honda Civic! I want to look at the journey Jimmy Oakes went through to learn how to drift, and see what he did well, and how he got to be the drift car driver he is today.

    Jimmy always struggled with grip in his coupe its 1jz swapped and was making to much power for the width of tires he had under it thats why it was a smoke show in his first runs in the 2nd half with the coupe (s13 drifts for the first time in 2 years) he did rear over fenders and wider front fenders allowing him to run wider tires for more grip and the car was still struggling for grip do to his rear arms being at bad angles because he didn't have drop knuckles in the rear and his sub frame bushings were roached but he just threw a new sub frame under it with better arms, drop knuckles and bushings

    • @zerohourdrift
      @zerohourdrift 2 роки тому

      I would say it was struggling bc he wanted to be a low boi lol, hence the drop knuckle. He’s definitely got a ways to go to get comfy in the car again, and it’s still turned down lol. Hopefully that other s15 turns out to be a better chassis for him!
