I’ve already gotten a couple wtf emails in response to my last entry, telling me I can’t drift a FF car. Whether it is possible or not to drift FF, I don’t really care. I guess I wasn’t clear.

Parts Collections
There has been little progress. The car remains in the exact position it was as of our last entry. The GZE sits up on a stand awaiting assembly… it’s all quite… bad. How many months do we have left?
