I achieved gold with this setup below.

BMW M3 '04 (Seasonal Drift Setup)

 

[Woodski_427]

Time to recreate my M5 from GT5 . Looks like a decent amount of power is required for that final section.

 

[JK83]

Just tryed 20mins and got 11066 quite easily, so there is lot to improve

 

[shaunm80]

Another drift tune capable of achieving gold.

BMW Z4 M Coupe '08 (Drift Seasonal Setup)

 

[Gogga]

M, the most powerful letter in the alphabet.

Here is my GTR version of the BMW Drifters

BMW M3 GTR '03 (Drift Seasonal Setup)

Just bought a m3 gtr for this seasonal. It looks worse than standard...

Hm. Perhaps, not as cleaner lines, but it handles well.

 

[FranciRus]

This was fun, bought all 10 M cars and did gold with all. Every one was stock apart from CS tires and LSD. M5 were super easy so if anyone is having problems, try the M5.

 

[JK83]

I just gave another go with this and got 11940, 7th now but I guess final results top 50
Here is my tune and I bet it isn't good for anyone else

 

[MatskiMonk]

Will have to give this a try. First time drifting with my wheel

I just noticed a few minutes ago, the leader is using a wing. Aren't parts that add downforce bad for drifting? Has anyone else improved using a wing?

 

[skyhighguy86]

dunno I usually use a aero parts when drifting much more stable at high speed

I find cars with understeer are easier to drift. Keeps the nose pointed and the the rear in check. I use the throttle, e-brake and the hardest tires to get the drift started.

Still find drifting in GT6 hopelessly hard so I got by with DS3.
