I find drifting in GT2 much more fun.. expecially when we are blessed with the selection of cars. if u guys havent noticed, ur going around in circles. thats why u take out crazy exotics to drift now... u guys are just running out of this to do in GT3 lol while in our side.. if we wanted to drift or what not, we have a selection from possibly any car, from Q's silvias too EVO II.. etc. and physics are different yes, but with the right setup and tires drifting should be easyer and more responsive then in GT3.

I only drift in GT2 when the car I want in GT3 isn't available. And that's a big deal. Not that either is really better in terms of physics, GT2 having too much grip and GT3 being too harsh with friction, but I just like the look (don't we all) and somewhat the feel of most of it better.
My best drift car in GT2 is the '91 Celica GT-Four (RC).
Right now my drifting projects in GT3 are the Nissan S13 (I can't get the exit countersteering quite right) and the Nismo 400R (I own you all).

What is the point of drifting? All it does is scrub speed thru the corners. Smooth lines with as little tire squeal as possible is the fastest way around any track, GT, GT2, or GT3! The only true place for drifting is where it is absolutely necessay, ie, the rally courses.

duh, sorry, but this is called 'spinning the car in the turn and hoping you don't crash
do you know how a real car handle? i tried to drift once IRL and ended up buing 2 new rims, IRL there's a thin line between drifting and spinning the car. this is what i see in GT2 (i don't know about GT3)
why would i spend 500$+ just for drifting
yes mom,
you can, but first you must have a feel of the car (same gose to gt3, i think)

To me, fun is going as fast as I can around whatever track I'm on. Don't get me wrong. I can slide around the track with the best of them. But I don't see anything "fun" about watching my lap times steadily increase. Usually whenever I feel the tires break loose in a corner my first thought is, "damn, there goes another 3 tenths!!"

What I like doing best is combining the two: drifting as much as possible whilst setting fastest laps. I don't record a 'normal' lap until I've gotten bored of drifting. One of my favourite videos is the license test with the Skyline R33 around the question mark shaped course. I drift so much that the speed drops to about 20mph, but it's really fun. If I go go-karting I try drifting, although it rarely works.

do you have a funny fealing that some one is talking.
oh, now i see him. let me ask you one thing, did you ever drift down the corkscrow in leguna seca? i hear in GT3 you have truble, well i did it in the cultus PPV (the smaller escodo), my escodo has a difting setup(just lower it and give it max. down force) that makes it drift (only after hitting the 200 mph) it gets 54.??? sec in red rock vally.
ofcourse gt2 is not good (imho) in RWD drifting(with the normal controler), but it is also hard IRL.
conclusion, gt2 is more challenging and life like than GT3 but with less controle.

Exactly. "Drifters" are caught up in some sort of nonsensical world where they believe that constantly sideways around a racetrack is the fastest way, because it gets the most press.
Pictures only tell you a moment of the story. Decades of experience with all sorts of racing machinery has shown us the fastest line through all sorts of corners, so a 14-year-old without a driver's licence isn't going to prove the world otherwise.
Case closed. Take it to the Drifters Only forum.

an experienced "drifter" kno's when to drift and not to drift, cuz drifting thru every turn isn't the best idea unless you kno that you'll get in and out of the the turn the quickest. And most of the times drifting is the best way thru a turn.

I'll only point out, for the hundredth time, that I have never seen anyone drift through any turn in any race. Why? Because it is not fast. It is for show.
Almost every post in this thread was written by an illiterate buffoon (especially ewok). You all know who you are. The same stupidity that believes drifting is the fastest way through a turn is the same stupidity that prevents you from grasping English and using it to communicate well.
I can't wait until GT4 comes out with real-time, online racing. That will settle it once and for all. Drift vs. grip. Then you will all see that drift is slow.
Did I mention you are all stupid? No? Okay then. You are all stupid.

hey, I drift in Gt2.. what's ur problem..
- 109
can i have a post without that 'stupid' word, thanks.
now, did i say that drifting is fast, well it's not, and any drifter know that (althou drifting @ LS was TOO fast that i had to brake hard for the next turn).
grip is good if your car is good or you can tune it to the best setting. i never drift in any race, but i do like 'semi-drifts' not getting the car sideways but still losing the grip on the rear wheels, this is good in some cars like the speed 12, i get 1:19 to 1:18 in rome using semi-grip (you can't get 100%grip in this car) and 1:13.588 using semi-drift, a 5 sec lead is fast.

Okay, i kno for damn sure I drifting is more faster than grip in lots of corners. Like take ssr11, drifting thru the turn is way more quicker than grip. And the reason u don't see drifting in real races is becuase it's not practical to kill your wheels and pit more frequently. We are just talking about a game so yes, drifting is a lot of the time quicker than grip. Booyah, and yes drift is an art

actually don't think i'd be getting gt4 cuz well no broadband in my area. But wait till that day gt4 comes out and you' ll see
Omg, you guys are arguing way too much. My lecture:
Drifting. Some do it for fun, some for the show. Some hate it becuz they cant do it, some hate it cuz it's slow.
But i tell you one important thing, drifting is not the fastest, it's pretty slow, and your victory is suspended on a string.
Thru experience and tests, i've come to learn, grip-style prevails, because it's the best.
You wonder muscle cars cant do it, because they're meant for fast driving, fast turning, and drifting is pure bull****.
So y'all juz kno, mustang versus ricer, whos gona win? ricer's too slow
cuz he drifting everywhere, even on laguna seca, the blind corkscrew, and he'll never make it there
I race and drive for fans sittin in de bleachers, drifting's a sideshow checkout the MAIN feature!

plus , even though it is not drifting...get the lancia delta collezoine...it will kick the **** out of any normal style hatchback
