Drift Guide

I'll be updating this thread overtime as I get better, if you have suggestions please post below and I'll add it.


Build
This is one of the most important parts to mastering drifting, having the right handling. This may vary from car to car, personally I recommend NISSAN 180sx however most cars will work, try avoid super cars.

Code to understanding the chart, if it says MORE with for example 1 it means 1 point away from 0, 0 means UNCHANGED.

Front Tire Pressure: 0 (UNCHANGED)
Rear Tire Pressure: 4 (LESS)
Steer Pressure: 2 (FAST)
Steer Range: 5 (WIDE)

Braking Drift Assist: OFF
Drift Stability Assist: OFF
Launch Control: OFF

Differential: 1 (OPEN)
Downforce: 3 (LESS)
Brake Strength: 5 (MORE)
Brake Bias: 2 (FRONT)
Tire Traction: 5 (LESS)
Handbrake Strength: 2 (WEAK)
Spring Stiffness: 0 (UNCHANGED)
Sway Bars: 1 (STIFF)
Nitrous: 5 (POWER)

This applies to a fully upgraded car however it still works if you haven't yet upgraded to max.

Those wondering why turn off Drift Assist and Stability Assist, it's because for some odd reason when you have it on it won't let you turn your car opposite direction while in drift, trust me it's better without it, stops you hugging walls.


Performance Customization
There is couple components that I recommend you apply to your car.

Forced Induction > Turbocharger: EliteTune-TC4-F-RACE
Nitrous System > Time Refill Nitrous 15lb Capacity
Tires > E/T-D5-XTREME-DRFT


Practice Zone(s) for Beginners
I recommend these spots to practice and test your car, I'll be adding more spots soon.

I don't think you need to even set up your car to get the greatest angles. Just turn the slider mid way between drift and the middle point and there you go.

This is awesome. You probably could get good drifts with the poster above but I dont do it that way. I like doing everything individually.
