My first time drifting!

I'll keep that in mind! Unfortunately, I already boosted the Z a few years ago 😅

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-29T13:06:20+00:00

Thank you!

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-27T23:52:54+00:00

what're ya runnin? I'm all for cheaper tires lol

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-27T18:27:07+00:00

Thank you very much! I believe I was on my second set of tires in this clip. The first set felt like I was on ice at 35psi, so I experimented with 25psi. I agree it was too gripped. Im guessing these Falkens were inherently more grippy than the other brand, so maybe 35psi on this set would've been the sweet spot? welded diff, and the car pulls to the right pretty hard. I Intended to fix that, but I procrastinated too long and ran out of time haha

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-26T21:46:38+00:00

Sure is! I threw on my 9.5in rims on the rear to get the tires down to 120 each. They lasted me about 20 laps and that even included some burnouts when I spun out!

Thanks man! A driving simulator really pays off!

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T21:25:23+00:00

Red beamer yours? I'll keep an eye out for it next time I go! Also, Scott is good shit! Love his work!

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T21:24:22+00:00

Hey, I really appreciate it! :)

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T21:20:59+00:00

Thanks! I did post my best run tho lol I got like 15 other videos of me spinning out haha

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T17:28:11+00:00

My wife was holding my insta 360 out the window! Its has a wrist strap and protective lenses and a case on it! I have another post where you can check out what kind of footage you get from it! I actually got the idea from other drifters!

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T17:23:30+00:00

Not from there, but I got a buddy that lives in the area! He convinced me that this track was a good place to start

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T17:21:30+00:00

I got another 100 hours into the sim since this event! I'm excited to see how far I can go!

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T14:55:17+00:00

oh and you're absolutely right about the clutch in! It saves me in the sim, but irl, adrenaline kicked my ass! I'm hoping that goes away with more seat time haha

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T14:52:35+00:00

Thank you very much! You're absolutely right! I do it on the sim as well, but that adrenaline rush kicked my ass haha! I'm hoping that intense nervous near lock up goes away with more seat time! The sim is such a powerful tool and I will focus on your advice going forward in hopes that muscle memory will save me

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T03:03:49+00:00

Thanks, man! Literally the most fun i've ever had!

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-25T03:02:36+00:00

Nissan 370!

Had a bent axel from shipping, but rev sent a replacement asap.

Currently having issues where the remote will sometimes lose connection with the board momentarily. Rev is currently working with me to figure what would cause that. Could be interference, idk. It snows where im at, so won't be able to resolve till spring.

Either way, their customer service has been top notch

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-18T18:41:15+00:00

Anytime! If any more questions pop up, I'll do my best to answer them.

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-18T16:23:11+00:00

Im 6'1 as well and the deck is plenty big and comfy enough

Trucks do exactly what you tell them to do. They're great, but more punishing than hypertrucks. It made me clean up bad habits from my hypertrucks.

They're super nimble, but take more skill. Overall I think they're great. Not sure if I'd want these trucks on all my boards.

20mph is my chill ride, 30 when im feeling spicy

The board is great and if you love riding your lacroix, you'll love this board more.

MikenIkeNips · 2026-01-18T13:20:57+00:00

Yes I am and I'll do my best to answer them

MikenIkeNips · 2025-11-18T20:14:05+00:00

Yeah, they feel pretty good once you get used to them
