I thought I would post this after reading how some members bashed others for drifting their cars; saying fwd cars aren't meant for that.

Check out the link below, I liked it...

That sucks, didn't even pay attention to that.

Why do they sell the Hydraulic E-brake on C-F-M.com then, what's the point?

Cables strectch over time causing inconsitent preformance in situations where needed... You can't harm a sealed fluid setup unless a seal is broken.

That video is a direct reason as to why I own a Focus to this day. I am a HUGE WRC fan[thumb]

I've seen that video so many times, and shown it to so many friends, and to this day, it still impresses me. I cant imagine how difficult that must be.

what's up george? havn't heard from you in a while. how's the restoration coming along? get the svt running yet?
yeah it's not really that hard to drift a FWD car, just takes some hp/tq and a good e-brake. but yeah i wish i had that AWD [:(]

Hey Lee,

Good to hear from you! Yeah, I'm going to put my rear coils and shocks in, add some tranny fluid, change the oil, add a lubricant to the pistons, put new plugs, and crank her over. I hope to see how she drives by 3pm (today 1/18). We'll have to get together soon.

Hey, I must have been looking at a diff websit, cuz CFM doesn't have a hydraulic E-brake. I've been looking around, but can't find anything. Please let me know if you come up with something.
Thanks

Can't find it either now; I must have been looking somewhere else. As soon as I find it, I'll let you know as I definitely would like to order one.
