For me it’s watching petapixel (a photography gear review channel) on youtube, not because i want photography gear, but because i think canada is beautiful especially in winters and so are the pictures in the video

    I actively take part in automotive events where we manipulate controls and leverage knowledge of vehicle dynamics to deliberately induce and sustain vehicle instability while navigating compact, paved circuits.

      Wut? How does this work? I assume that it helps on the corners or something like that

        As the other commenter said: it’s drifting. 😁

        However fun fact: racers do this too but less for show and fun but to go fast. Tires have the most grip when theyre just barely slipping (like 6% or something, idr) and so to corner fast the drivers will try to attain the optimum “slip angle”. Slip angle literally means the car is sliding but only a few degrees.

        If you’re interested in the dynamics of driving fast I recommend attending local autocross events. Autocross is fun and is a great place to learn how to drive fast. It’s great because it’s cheap, it’s not hard on vehicles, and you can bring whatever you already have (except trucks and stuff due to rollover risk).
