Hi everyone, I am new to the online drifting scene but I can drift pretty well. I still need practice, who doesn't, but i would like to practice with a team. What I drive depends on my mood at the time. I usually drift this lovely piece of engineering:

Hello Everyone I used to drift for 2 teams, angle and OsakaHQ, then I stopped drifting online for awhile so that i could perfect drifting with a wheel. Im ready to come and drift again with anyone looking to drift for fun. My psn is cars-125

Hi all. I am new to GT5 drifting and I have a Fanatec CSR wheel. I am very used to Forza's physics so could anyone give me some tips on how to make my transitions in GT5 smoother? I can handle corners ok, but the transitions are what get me.

When you're countersteering, before the transition (last second or so), reduce the countersteer a bit, to make sure you don't transition as fast, and you can keep up with the weight change ;)

Welcome! How are the Fanatecs? Are they any good on GT5 & PS3 in general? Looking for a decent wheel at the moment!
 
It's is very nice although there is a really big learning curve. I am still learning and practicing with it, I struggle just to do a lap without spinning out ferociously haha.

Whats up, my names Allen, I'm, 21, rom Ohio and I'd love to join a GT5 drift series, thats all I've wanted to do in GT5 for the most part. I love competition. I drift in real life as well! I live in Ohio so I am EST. Message me on here if theres a league or series I should join, I will be doing some seraching as well.
 
Hi, GT veteran here. Been playing since GT1 on PS1, and played them all, although not with the same intensity.
I only drift these days, and only been doing so for...6 months perhaps, all on DS3.
I'm online everyday doing tandem drift just and friendly banter just for fun, no competitions.
Presently not at all a fan of grip/racing.
Not a fan of "racers", low angle drifters & "pushers" on drift lobbies.
Hate abuse and "pros".

Just in for some chilled drifting and tandem.

I should be retired by now ;)

Cheers.

Hello I'm not really new to GT5 I played for about a year so far.. I only drive a 3rd Generation Mazda RX7 (FD3s) I don't really talk much so I don't stand out much. I originally wanted to race and win against 1 of each individual in a team on GT5. 38/53 of my races are team wins.. But sadly I gave up due to the car hacking extravaganza that's going on right now... -_-; It's not much fun now knowing most people cheat. Anyway I do hope to see you all on the track(s). Friendly terms I mean. No jerks please..

Oh right feel free to add me if anyone is like lacking friends lol my list just has the sound of crickets and cicadas lol PSN: AiYuna

Welcome AiYuna. I know how you feel about the hacking as I feel the same. But think of it like this.. if the people need a hacked car to beat you; that makes you the better drifter in my opinion. Plus some of these guys used to complain about how certain cars drift faster, and now they use the chassis for that same car they used to complain about and act like it's any different.

Any way I stick to lounges mostly only now. Add me if you want to have some fun drifting. psn- alpacaflip1

Hiya! I feel your pain I've been in lobbies with peeps using 1500hp drift cars. I do use Hybrid cars but they have a realistic Hp. For example I have a GT86 with 480hp. Or my s15 is wingless and bumperless but only has 407hp. I hope to drift with you soon! Add me! iUnknowN-96!

Hi guys my psn Is gaz1093 not entirely but not that good either. Decided to join this forum to learn a few things and become a bettet drifter overall
 
Hello all! My friends call me "Drift pig". I'm new to GTPlanet but I've been playing Gran Turismo since PS1. I've been drifting for a little while, enjoying the many stages of GT5 as it progresses. I've never been on a legit Drift Team. I've battled before, but never had a team. I'm a wheel and controller user, wagon drifter, non-hacker (But honestly I want to learn how to make a REALISTIC hybrid) and a all around fun person.

hello guys. i just got gt5 yesterday and ive been figuring out drifting all day, ive been a huge FM2,3,4 drifter. my drift car of choice is my '91 R32 gts-t (RB20 ftw!!), but i also got a soarer 2.5gt and a sileighty being built as well.

IRL ive owned 3 S13's, hoping to own another for a rb20det swap within a month or so.
 
Whats up guys!

Name on PSN is ErieFLOW. Pretty new to drifting on GT5, but have been practicing on a normal basis trying to get the hang of it. Still need help on a couple of things.

As of right now, I'm using my 00' RX-7 Type RZ to get the hang of things , but I also have a 91' Silva K's, 96' 240SX, and surprisingly a 04' Impreza Sedan WRX STi Spec C on there way to be tuned.

Mostly just looking to have fun, learn some stuff and the most obvious one, Drift. (on a side note, if anyone wouldn't mind helping me out learning how to drift, I would greatly appreciate it 👍)
