Here's my Drift ...

[Thio]

Sorry for all of the people that tried to download my video. This was supposed to be in it, but I couldn't get Geocities to work for me. Well, enjoy the pictures :

In the end, I did hit the wall, which was sad

Here's another drift that I did during the same session:

I feint drifted in the beginning. That's why I was so sideways before the corner. This time, I didn't hit the wall at the end of the drift
I'm going to post more of my drifts here since I can't upload my videos :grudge: but here's my chance to shine

 

[Thio]

YES! I GOT ONE PICTURE WORKING!!!! W00T!!!

Anyways, I got one pic working, now I have to get the others to work too

I'm so proud of myself

Great drift.
Try 2nd hairpin and the next corner in Midfield II.

 

[ConvictKid]

VERY NICE THIO! I think I will try that myself, thanks for the pics.

I only know of one hairpin on Midfield, and it's the last one before the S's before the straightway.

What's the corner number?

BTW, thanks for the comment

That's really good Thio.

Looks hot, but it's not a four-wheel drift. Too much slip angle to the tires, as shown by the smoke - the rear is sliding rather than slipping.

But it is a great touge drift! Way to go. I actually like the slideshow format.

 

[Thio]

*sigh*

Oh well, at least it was a cool drift! I'll change the title then

Your drift / slide looks pretty darn good.. Now go try the same with a CL600

 

[drifterzzz]

good drift thio but i think that is the best track 2 drift . ialso can do that at that track i used s.soft tire front & normal at back & its really 2 drift . i never use sim cause its uncontrolable , but u need 2 practice it .... by the way the pictures rockkkkkkkkks.

Is the braking the same for rear and front tires? and do you have less power going to the front? it looks like it.

 

[Cobraking]

nice drift man

I thought it would be a Four Wheel Drift, but as neon_duke said, it's sliding too much by looking at the tire smoke. Would that be a slide then?

 

[superb doriftoo]

well thio... just because you see smoke dosnt mean your not drifting. Its just something to game uses to show that youve broken traction. I am not too sure what he means by slide... the only thing i know about that has to do with slides are "power slides".

 

[Thio]

So would it be a powerslide?

Not really, it's just a regular exhibition drift, "power slides" usually happen at the end of a turn or during, and usually only last a second or two, it happens when the driver adds to much gas, the tail brakes loose, and it just looks stupid and serves no purpose, and really requires very little skill. This particular corner is very long so it would be almost impossible to start the drift before the corner. The way you did it shows very good control and is a great example of a AWD exhibition drift. If you use the power of the engine to initiate a drift before the turn than it's still a drift even if you used a power over technique. Really, 4-wheel drifting is only used to go fast they don't look like anything special. Don’t bother with it unless you are trying to get a fastest time. Stick with the fun sideways stuff you are doing now, it’s much more impressive to look at to us drifters, and that's what this whole forum is about.

Drifting is all about when and how a drift is initiated, the sooner and longer the drift is held the more impressive, but there really is no difference in the drift after it has been initiated.

Thanks TruenoAE86, it cleared the clouds out of my mind. 👍

Castrol Supra on Midfield:

enjoy

 

[drifterzzz]

nice job man . by the way can u give me your setting . i want to try it .........

 

[Thio]

Just get Sim tires, set the downforce to minimum on the front and rear, make sure that the gear ratio touches the upper right hand corner of the screen, the bar for 6th gear. Lower the ride height and lower the shock absorbers to 4 kg less than the rear.

Have fun

 

[Thio]

Oh, and also increase the stabilizers to 6/6. Take the camber angles away too.

 

[drifterzzz]

is that stock cars or with the turbo . anyway u are the best friends ever in this board with fast feedback , anyway thks & i will try then give a feedback .....

 

[Thio]

Okay, cool

I just used the Castrol Supra stock, but the other settings I posted earlier. All that I bought was the simulation tires.

 

[drifterzzz]

10q u are the successfully great ..........

 

[drifterzzz]

i know u are interested to show your replay in these board
. i also interested 2 see your monster drifting . and your setting
maybe someday we will battle . MAYBE
