Well I really get a buzz off helping noobs get better @ drifting:idea:. I'm always online & have a room open for noobs or fellow pros who like to help.

If your noob & want help you'll need:

rx7 spirit r type a (new car dealer)
enough cash to fully upgrade it

I can help tune cars if you know whats wrong with them according to your technique (eg. not extending properly, bouncy ride, too much wheelspin etc.)

Just want to upgrade my level of competition. PS I have already helped noobs many times so come and have a go...

line manipulation


controlling 900bhp on CH

Nice move. I aprove it (i also do it with some brazilian friends when necessary).

Just two things:
1 - Measure the wheel spin at online ambient is kinda dificult since the smoke amount is smaller compared to the real thing.
2 - I suggest you put here a startup setup, then you wont need to spend a lot of time telling to tune what on where for every people you teach.

Awesome, I'll be sure to come get some well needed help tomorrow! I think most of my problem is trying new cars too often and not knowing how to properly tune them. Maybe I just need to get used to one car and have it tuned right.

Im just about to get on for another 10 hours or so LOL. see you there.
 
One question, is this teaching for controller or wheel. I'm looking for a wheel guru to teach me the moves. I already controller drift well enough.

Edit: never mind I read directly above me lol

It isnt as twitchy. I, too, run an absurdly high rear toe angle to keep the car stable and not wanting to tank slapper if the front grips up too much...

Tank slapper?? You drifting motorbikes? Lol
 
Thats me! I'm a noob! Teach me o' wise master.:bowdown:

add me, sorry if you already tried I didn't know I had too many friends and couldn't add more. I have a new car that is sooo nice to drift in, although it looks out of place, perfect sleeper (*students only) haha.

as for the camber question, I don't know bro. It just worked well so it stayed like that. I have had people tell me my tunes are weird but they still tandem damn fine.
 
yeah man, I have a battle on soon so I'll get to you after that. If your looking for good consistent drifters and I'm not on, join the D1NZ rooms. Their members are AUS / NZ and they are down to earth chilled out guy's.

If you need a ride, try my rx7 tune, she's A grade drift car I swear.(once you get the hang of it)👍 I'll add you after battle, too many friends.
