Narrow Driveways FTL
#42
I am only going to make a small suggestion.. since it IS YOUR driveway.... your approach angle is off... you need to get the pass side rear wheels as far to the edge of the driveway as possible (fold in pass mirror to avoid fence post) and put your front tires half way down the slope between the sidewalk and the road before you cut them to the left
In the video..you approach in the middle of the driveway and swerve, but this still puts your car at the same angle (rear wheels) as if you were to drive straight out
I had the same problem with my 94 Legend coupe years ago when I lived in Queens... driveway was exactly 9'6" wide... with a building on either side and fence to the sidewalk
just my ....worked for me

^ you're teaching a guy who has been slammed for more than a year now. i know how to drive. like i said.. the video doesnt do any justice as it wasnt even on level ground! if you want a new video on level ground showing how narrow it actually is, then i'll post it. i can EASILY prove all you guys here wrong.

Henry, dont waste your time making another video. its not worth it lol. i believe that you scrape. i scrape on my own driveway no matter what angle i come in at and my driveway entrance is 20ft wide.

^not necessarily true. if i angle head in first into my driveway, i won't scrape. if i angle out backing out of my driveway, i won't scrape.
now.. if i back into my driveway, angling or not, it scrapes the fucking shit out of my front lip. someone who's at my height or lower will understand what i mean when they do it.

cause i was DIY-ing for my faded b pillars and extension cord wouldnt reach to the passenger's side.
i'm not scraping frame.. please..
what makes you think i don't scrape frame? not to make it seem like im bragging but.. there was a point where i was just as low as you.. bottoming out, sending sparks into the sky, and you should see the whole bottom side of my car but i rather be driveable-slammed.
still dumped.. but couldnt stand smacking my UCA's on every slight little bump and i could barely turn
