Not Just a Heavy Smoker
By Crackles06

To start off with, as Kenji has stated many times before, thanks to everyone that reads the site regularly!! You really do keep the site and the people that post going. What is it? Almost 11,000 visitors so far, that’s awesome guys!

Thanks for taking the time to do this all Crackles! Thanks, Kenji.


=Cracked Silvia=

Silvia’s are used a lot now days by drifters, and drift tuners, but I’ve attempted to tame the wild beast!


As you can see, or might’ve already known, tuning these Jap Crap Rice burners can easily result in ‘OUT OF CONTROLNESS’ or as the drifters call it, controlled drift. But as deceiving as this may look, it was actually one of the easier cars that I can control into a quick 180 turn around.

On top of that, the drifting is actually quite easy in this vehicle, although it isn’t tuned at all for drift, it can get into a spin quite quickly, and as the weight is minor throughout, it is quick and easy for adjustments to succeed the ‘controlled drift’.



Okay, so we’ve gathered so far that the Crack tuned Silvia isn’t exactly going to plan in the grip racing field, but after completing a few laps of the beloved Mugello Circuit, I found that the tune that I personally Cracked was great, the car handles quite well, and feels so much lighter around the bends. In fact if you’re not trying to drift, it actually sticks quite well around the right bends of Mugello. I even recall going around 70mph on the first corner of Mugello. Don’t get me wrong, that might’nt be all that great, but we’re talking about a rice burner here. Plus is Cracked tuned, gotta leave a bit of a leeway for shitty tuning. Great A class runner in my opinion, and if you can get your hands on one for cheap enough without going too much out of the way, I highly recommend giving it a go.



Don’t get me wrong, running the corners of Mugello fast, and accurately can have a great outcome, but if you get a bit cocky, it could all go wrong. - =[



Now we all know, nothing is as good in A class as Kenji’s quietly tuned (?) Ings, so I’ll leave on a happier note, if you can get your hands on a silvia and tune it, it’ll go well, if you can get your hands on the UPR tuned up Ings, Fuck the silvia.



Enjoy!!
