Hey guys not sure if this is the right place but i sure hope it is haha but i was wondering if anyone has ever tryed to make a 2nd gen camaro into a drift car i think it would be sick and one of a kind team falken tires made a 1969 camaro into a drift car. Im basicly wondering has it been done before? And would you think it would be a good idea if i have the time and money? how would i loose wieght? My brother drifts his 240sx in competitions and i go and watch and ive never seen a camaro ive seen some 3rd and 4th gen camaros though thanks goodbye

You would have to get rid of allot of weight, these 2nd gens are heavy pigs lol. New suspension, more alluminum, removing inner fenders, fuel cell, carbon fiber or fiberglass panels, hoods, trunk lid the list would go on and on. I think it would be just best to buy a lighter car for drifting, but it if you wanted to do it it can be done.

 

That looks like a LOT of fun!!! Not sure I'd be willing to strip down my baby for it though.

 

Yah its alota fun in person too haha! i cant decide cuz i dont wanna start stripin her down until i am fully decided. it would take alota time and money to make it but do you guys think it would be worth it when im done?

 

does anyone know if the 60s camaro was lighter then the 70s?

 

Here's your answer, and yes it appears to be extremely competitive.

Damn can't open the link. But I think I read about a guy building one on nastys progect forum.

 

lol by the dents in that first gen camaro id say they're not that great at drifting in it

 

Do a search for "drift" over at Nasty and his car will come up. It's also got links there to pics of him at Euro drift competitions.
