Drifting Stock Cars (possible in rl, how about gt?)

[Picc84]

I have watched enough people drift s14's and s15's perfectily in Real life. So why do most have to go through so much trouble of fine tuneing? I realise this can help a very lot. But i'm just wondering if this is possible in GT4...

Yes you can, as long as the cars come with some sort of LSD and a bit of power. The way traction works in GT4 does however mean that certain stock cars won't be as capable as they are in real life.

The reason for tuning cars is to make them easier to manage and control at and beyond the limit. Also, since GT4 isn't exactly true to life both in terms of physics and mechanical shortcuts (clutch, wheelspin etc), some cars need a bit of a helping hand to behave more like they would in real life.

do it every week on xlink. no problems there.

What car do you suggest to try stock? the AE86 doesent cut it stock...

hey Suzuki, do you mind if i add you on aim to talk for abit?

 

[Suzuki]

no it sure doesnt. too bad too. if it had lsd stock... maybe.
any S2000 works good. amuse is pretty good. the earlier models are more oversteer happy than the newer ones.
youve got 30 cars you can add to your favs, so just go shopping for FR or MR cars. the d1gp cars are nice too when you wanna have fun.

Suzuki, hopefully tomorow i can get on xlink and see some of you guys..

MRs are harder to drift with than FRs. The mid-engine kinda gives it an edge of understeer plus they're expensive. I prefer a S2000, a 350Z, and a RX-8 (Maybe a Sileighty but ganna need to put all the weight into the front). Turn off the driving aids along with it.

 

[Suzuki]

adjusting weight isnt stock enough.
and i find mr's just as easy, if not easier to drift with over fr because of the easy entry.
why do you think mr's have understeer? all the mr cars ive driven like to oversteer more than under.
picc, hit me up on aim tomorrow and ill help ya get setup and what not.
