1997 GMC Safari VS. Ford Probe GT

[evaneizer]

Saturday night after i finished work around 1230-1 am. i was drivin on Glenmore goin east, then me and my friend stopped at a red light (in the GMC van AWD) then this probe gt pulled up next to us. So i reved my engine for shits, and to c what he would do, then the driver was like "haha ur in a van, i should tell ur mom" then he started reven his engine. So my van bein AWD, i can't really burn out or anything, we took of when the light turned green, and i took him soo bad off the line, but there was all these curves in the road, i took him for a while but eventually had to slow down to take the corners. Then behind us comes another probe, and was driftin about the curves and was following the original probe like 2 feet, it was fun.

Yea I was in the car with him, when the probe drifted he came pretty close to loosing it!

haha that was so funny, the guy makes fun of us then he gets owned by a van lol! hahaha

Ohh, and just incase anyone's wondering, the van's not a V8, its a 4.3 V6

ha.. that's funny cause i'm rolling in my dad's old astro ext... man that thing is a beast!!

[illeagle]

hey, I beat a Probe in my Caravan last week, It wasen't a GT but , I had 4 passengers and I still beat him,

[3G]

arent those Probes FWD??

and those 4.3L are BEASTS....too bad all they put out is 150HP.

[PGTze]

I didn't know that FWD cars could drift? If anyone knows how this amazing feat was accomplished by this Probe please let me know. I'm not saying that you could not have beat him or anything, because there are alot of factors that could have gone wrong for the Probe. Maybey he didn't know how to drive ... but I'm still calling on your story. If your gonna make up something, at least do a little research or something so that it is somewhat believable.

[CelicaST-162]

well, PGTze....he wasnt makin it up.....Silent Assasin was riding in it...so if you dont believe...then maybe your probe should race evaneizers van then see who would get owned........

I guess I should have clarified a little more... evaneizer said the probe was "driftin about the curves"... now I'm just taking a wild guess here, but I take that to mean that he saw the probe drifting... probes are FWD... which means they CANNOT DRIFT... so unless this probe was a RWD conversion or something, then I don't think he saw it drifting.

And my dad has actually already smoked me in our Windstar, he beat me by like 3 carlengths ... but that was when I had just learned how to drive standard two days before.

wow

[CelicaST-162]

there was two probes involved....the one that drifted im not sure if youve ever seen it it has the "Silent Rage" on the windshield and a tachcometer decal on the side, and it was blue....the one evaneizer raced was red and had an unpainted body kit.........by the way the guy in the probe did drift it was a tight corner....and he prolly took it fast or e-brake....and ive drifted in my car too......so FWD cars CAN drift....

^^

ok...were u in the car with the guy in the van? i wouldnt even admit to knowing the guy with such a dumb post like this one

[CelicaST-162]

ryder23, before you say its a dumb post....were you there...no, i thought so, so dont go saying its a dumb post, cuz u werent there to see what happened.....

[ryder_23]

I've seen the blue one around a couple times before, if he's on here maybey he can teach me how to drift with a FWD car, hahaha. Or better yet maybey you could teach me how to do it!

hahaha sure sounds good, its pretty easy tho, its kinda hard to explain, but u gotta know your cars limit.....and find an empty parking lot, or a big alley way and when theres curve...start turning your steering wheel..(driving kinda fast) and yank your e-brake....(HAHA, I AM NOT LIABLE IF YOU FUCK UP YOUR CAR, SO DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK...)

I was being sarcastic man.

Is that not just pulling an ebrake anyways?

And yeah you will fuck up your car.
