Who says protege's can't drift...

Step 1:
Go to your local mall food court or McDonalds and pick up some plastic trays you carry your food on. The thicker, the better. If you have the chance, get as many as you can... because once the fun starts, you don't want to have to worry about going through your only pair of trays.
Step 2:
Find a nice empty parking lot that's good for doing stuff you know you're not supposed to be doing... you all know the type. Have two buddies hold your trays under your rear wheels while you slowly back over them. Once you're positioned good, pull your hand break up tight. Now have your buds stand back and get the video camera out.
Step 3:
You can probably figure out what to do next. Have fun with it. If you have backup trays, take your first set and practice... get the feel of it. The next set of trays you can really get a controlled drift going. Or you could just say screw it, and go nuts... that's just as fun sometimes.
Just to let you know, the trays go fast. In the video, the trays I used had holes worn through them after only the couple little runs I did. Try and find the most level surface you can. This was the first time we've tried this, so next time we're going to experiment with using two trays under each wheel. Try for yourself and post your results!
