Been drifting since 04. GT5 im either in my yellow e46 or my z4 black with the bloody shoes. Occasionally ill bring out the Silverado. You can find me in rooms "SinCity drift", "Summerlin drift", "Indian Springs", or "///MPower". Check out my photo albums and feel free to comment.


p.s. i talk alot of trash just because quite no talking drifting is boring, so if your like me and do the same, lets run it!!
 
Hello everyone, my name is Adam and I have a problem. I love to drift. I think about it when I eat, when I sleep, drive, pick my nose, drop a deuce, check out girls. Always. I've ben involved in racing since 2000, have owned an rx7 since 2002 (both 85, fist was a gsl, and current is a gs being converted into a drift, auto x, rally 7, street machine) and I've ben drifting since 2006. I current drift (really the only thing I currently do on gt5) a couple of RUFs, including my fav, the yellowbird. I also drift a couple of rx7s, a cosmo, and some awd cars. I am of the mind that any layout can drift, some are just better for it then others. I am fairly good, though my tandem could use practice. Just hard to find good sifters drifters amid the trash that clog the tracks. I enjoy special stage 5 the most, though I have been working on learned the nurburgring and the 24h version, as well a sectioning it for both up hill and down. I do not belong to a team, and have no real interest in joining one. I just enjoy drifting, and meeting drivers.
 
New guy here. Been a avid GT gamer since first release. Drifted a lot on GT3/GT4. Just getting into the drift again in GT5.
 
Yo wutz up GTPlanet! Been here a lot and decided to create my account now. Been a big fan of the GT series since GT2. I have driftin' down nearly perfect with the DS3, but still sketchy with my G27. I'll be checkin' back everyday hopefully!! I love how gtplanet is structured. Awesome community you have going on here!
 
Hey guys im new to drifting just started in GT5 although ive had all the GT games been drifting Audi R8 and RUF BTR '86 so if you have any tips on cars and tuning let me know.
 
Im starting now on drifting. I still suck cause i dont to much about it...Im looking forward for tips and help from all of you guys, hope you can help me understanding the drifting. :)
 
Hello everyone. I am a new drifter. I half-heartedly tried the Drift Trials in the Seasonal Events before but always found it frustrating. I finally followed some tuning advice and set up a Jaguar XKR Coupe '10 and got a gold on the latest Drift Trial after only about 10 attempts. I am guessing that for most people here the Drift Trials are easy, but this was a big accomplishment for me. Now I feel that maybe (with the right car, set-up, and practice) I can drift. I don't have a lot of time to play GT5, but I am now going to add drifting practice to the things I do whenever I do get time to play.
 
whattup people been playing gt5 every day since its release, fanatical drifter (sittin parked up in my rx7 tc right now) hit me up and we can get some angles happening!

Buddy try this, buy a samba bus max it up, set the drivetrain initial torque to 60, acceleration sesitivity to 60, braking sensitivity to 5, then suspension ride hight both to -70, camber 2.0 at front and 0.0 back, both toe's at 0.00. Comfort medium front/back. Go do Eiger short track drift practice and i kid you knot you will surprize your self, im new to drifting aswell but after my first atempt i got 16692, previously my highest was 15456 in a s2000 '06. If anybody wants a photo for evidence dont hesitate, I have a polygon for a brain btw.
 
Hi, I'm new to this forum, you have some kind of competition in the forum, if so, how could I sign up?

I'm not necessarily new to drifting on the Gran Turismo series. But i've only been at it for maybe 3 years. Currently suffering from YLOD. :grumpy: Will have a new ps3 in a few days and will be back to drifting in a short while. Feel free to add me for some fun!
 
Hi I'm Conza, and I'd like to learn how to drift (in GT5).

I've sort of been able to do controlled drifts with the handbrake on FF cars, when they are understeering, I learnt on fifth gear (thanks Vicki), that the handbrake can help swing the car the right way.

But mostly I want to learn to drift for the seasonal events, I just want to be good enough to get the golf, so I can get an extra million bucks, and get the full use out of the new seasonal events when they come out.

So I'm going to look around for guides on drifting in this forum, I'm guessing the best cars are FRs, but Jeremy Clarkson also reccomended the Audi R8 (forget if it was the 4.2 or 5.2, possibly both are good).

I'm sure settings play a part as well, I'm also using a Driving Force GT, although I do have a controller available, I think it'll ultimately be more fun to be able to use a wheel.

DS3 drift school

Wheel Drift school

I suggest 'aiming' to favor FR drivetrain with CH tyres, although its not necessary when starting out (but it should be your 1st long term goal to conquer as a drifter.) The rest will come.
 
Hello people!!

I've been around the forums here, not sure if I've ever posted before. I'm pretty new to the drifting side of the house, although I feel like I'm a pretty quick learner. I'm basically introducing myself to find some advice and tips on various drifting techniques, and maybe make a few friends to slide with online. I'm currently involved in the Drift Trial at Susuka East and can't seem to get anymore points out of that track. I would also love to learn a little tandem action, but that's probably a ways out for me. Anyway, thanks for reading this, and now it's time to go post the vid I just made, if I can find out where it goes! Peace.
