I will be hosting a Drift School session at around 3pm GMT on Sunday. Anyone interested?

I'm interested, I am hopeless at drifting with the wheel but can't guarantee I'll be there.

This driving school thing is a brilliant idea.

I would like to sign up for sections 3 (struggle with a clean pass) and 4 (don't know how to defend my position with out completely taking out my opponent).

I would also like to help. I can teach drag and route x. I can help someone get the most out of their car.
 
I would also like to sign up to
Section 4: Defensive driving
Section 6: Nurburgring
Section 8: Drifting
 
It's looking I might go out for the day so I will postpone the drift school to about 7pm BST (GMT+1, British Summer Time).
 
Yes. The room is up, sorry for opening it so late.

It is a tryout lobby for my Team but anyone wanting drift lessons can ask for them :indiff: .

How long is it going to be open? I might be able to join in 20 min.
 
It seems like the whole lobby got disconnected. I will be setting up another room. The room number is 1472-6118-3744-3751-4059 :) .
 
So I see a lot of instructors and not many students. I know I'm willing to learn. However I'm not sure which "class" to take. Is there someone who would be willing to critique my driving style and see where improvement could occur? I guess it would fall in advanced than?

Thanks in advance for any replys

I hope this stretches till after april.. I definitely want to sign up after my finals! :)👍

It will.

PM any of us to get started.
 
Unable to search room numbers due to NAT 3 restictions. I'm on a college campus so there is no way to open the ports to allow for NAT 2. This just became a tad more difficult.

There's always a solution.
 
It was made apparent to me last night that I am severely lacking in ability to handle FWD cars on comfort tires. I don't know if anyone is an expert in that area, but I definitely need some help.

I'll be on tonight around 10p CST US. Send me a message on the PSN if you're on at that time, and I'll help you out.

Thanks, I'll add you tonight.

If its full, just send me a message anyway and I'll clear a space for you before I login to GT5. Everyone else is welcome to join as well.

I would love to get some lessons! I race a lot of NASCAR but I want to be competitive when I join rooms on street courses.
I always finish last because I don't want to bother other racers or ruin their race.
I would like to start with the basics/beginners no aids.
Psn Dandwg.
I'll try to find your rooms later tonight. (approx 8hrs from now, I'm at work.

I would really appreciate some lessons on pretty much everything. This year I decided I was going to ban myself from using the driving line, which has resulted in me suddenly having a fear of racing events, such as the seasonals, meaning I'm spending but not earning. Even though some would say I don't have any problem with credits as I have 9 mill, I'm sure at my sudden rate of purchasing this will soon decrease rapidly, and I can't earn any money to get it back up to where I like it. I know, I know, I could just turn on the driving line and earn money, but I'm rather supersticious, and I don't want to do that and get back into the habbit of using the driving line. What really made me realise I needed to stop using it was that one of my 10 year old friends doesn't use the driving line. 10. Years old. 10 years. Compared to my almost 15 years of living.

Another big problem I have is driving under pressure... basically, racing comeptitively. I panic when other cars are around me, and then I either take someone out or take myself out. Usually both, because once I've caused someone to go off the track and lose their place, I purposely take myself out from guilt and then end up waayyy behind everyone else and being lapped etc. I'm extremely pessimistic too, which probably doesn't help. The last time I raced competitvely was... probably late 2011. So I need desperate help.

Oh, I'm also extremely shy around new people, so... you'll probably get one word sentences out of me if I'm on the mic at first. But I should come round to you. Eventually.

I host Clean & Relaxed shuffle races almost nightly, without mics, and with some really good competitors. If you're looking to get over your anxiety within a pack, this is probably the best way. I'll start tonight around 10p CST US, so if you're on, send me a message on the PSN and I'll get you the room number.

I'm afraid 10pm CST is not a good time for me... that's around 4am GMT and I'm heading off on a 2 hour or so journey to Wales tomorrow. Maybe a couple of hours earlier would be good enough for me, but it's fine if you can't. We can always arrange another time. :D

My scheduled PS time is pretty limited. I'm usually on around the same time every night, with the bulk of my racing coming Friday nights. If that's still not good, you can always join a racing series here. Lewis_Hamilton_ is in your region, and if you can keep up with him, you're golden. Send him a PM here and see when he's on, and if he'll also help. He's a great chap to race with.

I can help out with Aggressive Driving and Rally driving. Flick me a PM if you're keen.
 
I can't believe I'm only finding this now!!!

Username: Added_Value
Purpose: Student
Area: Beginner no Driving Aids, Overtaking, Defensive and Aggressive Driving.
Track Preference: Instructor's preference
Car: Instructor's preference. Wouldn't mind using a few cars to get a better feel of how different types handle

Over all I've been getting a lot better, so I've turned all aids of now, but I am struggling more since I have.
I haven't been racing on line because I'm not awfully confident in my driving yet, and I think this would be an awesome way to get me going, so any help with the foundations would be greatly appreciated!
