Drift skillz!!!

[Louis]

list wat u guys do to initiate and control your car, I know a lot of people have have diffrent styles so I'm just trying to see the diffrence

[Memme]

First, I say... "I'm going to do something really stupid!" then I jerk the wheel hard in one direction and then back the other way, while clutch kicking and flooring it... and pulling up the e-brake...

True story.

[J Squared]

i open the door and drag my foot.

[j.le]

i hold down right trigger, i intiate by pushing a(red button) hold down trigger again wheel steering through the turns. sometimes need to push down shift button

[flip]

Depends on corner, speed, surface, tires...

[Andy C]

its hard to explain. you gotta feel the weight transfer to the rear and know how much to clutch kic or power over or whatever.

you gotta get the feel of it.

[FlatWoodsMonster]

200% throttle

[MOOREOFSTEPHEN]

i use my feet and hands

[ashibah83]

right foot....

[Andy C]

u guys are useless

get going about 40-50mph (i'm just a beginner and not very good yet, so i keep the speed down)
push the clutch in
turn the wheel
yank the ebrake
close my eyes and pray
and then i usually cry a little bit when it's all over
..and then get back in line to do it again

Yeah, good luck getting a patent on it though.

[Slambarsoldier]

depending on your suspension settings that can result in some nasty understeer.

Like Flip said it depeneds on too many things. Best thing is to come to an event and get an instructor to help you. you learn by doing (at Kiss Kiss 2/14 ;)).

glad to hear your excited about learning. but if you are serious about learning come to Kiss Kiss 2/14 and learn there. we will have instructors on site. killing cones is the point ;), that why the volunteers are there. The night stuff will honestly take you a lot longer to get decent. we do practice days to get better. EVERYONE spins and no one cares or laughs. If you need some advice or whatever PM me.

[Andy C]

raul, dont worry about looking stupid. watch all the drift vids on youtube at turnerfield. tons of spinouts until you watch tandem vids.

its no big deal. its all fun and its the only way to get better. i'll be in the one on the 14th, so you are more than welcom to ride along with me some.

if i was u i'd take the vette. put a f/s sign on it and lots of ppl will see it.


i lost my license, so my girl is driving me down, and the back seat will be filled with tires, so i dont think that will work.

i'll pm u my number now.

[raulck_hn17]

haha.. ok.. maybe we can meet up before u live n cruise down there.. ill put the for sale sign with a little 240atlanta special.. great idea tho

[THEHATCH]

i just simply go balls out and destroy shit.

if you hit something then its your fault, and you (I) learn from it and become better


thats how i see it.

[raulck_hn17]

i should just fuck the car up really good n claim it to the insurance.. ill tell them that i was just drivin down 75 and a bunch of 240sxs started to box me in n try to kill me n stuff n pulled in to the turnerfield parkin lot where i tried to commit suicide.. didnt make it but my cars fucked up n want my money haha

[blue_lude]

somone give me a ride along at kiss kiss!

[raulck_hn17]

why dont we all meet up on friday night before kiss kiss n plan some shit.. that way i can get to know u all

[Andy C]

we will probably meet up at rusans on sunday this weekend. u should come. i'll give u a call.

[raulck_hn17]

cool.. yeah give me a call.. i havent seen 240atlanta since like a year ago when i first bought my s13..

[Black Guy]

i normally close my eyes kick the clutch, let the car get side ways, let go of the steering wheel, wait 3/4s of a second, catch it again, then open my eyes.

[raulck_hn17]

:goodjob:safe

Its a difficult technique, not just anyone can pull it off.

[down_shift]

Dont forget the Southeast Drift meet at Malibu on the 30th.

[Memme]

It is best to let go of the wheel initially... Being that it's an S-chassis... it knows how to steer into a drift better than you do... the driver is like the S-AFC... fine tuning

[is300t]

just go out and learn from trial and error, thats the best way

[~The_Duke~]

That is how I learned to slide my dad' G35... lol

[raulck_hn17]

:ddirtyd:

as suprising as that may sound to some that is true

now dont jump onto me or bitch at me, im just saying thats all.

its pretty cool to turn the wheel, kick the clutch and watch (out of a peripheral sort of view) the steering wheel spin the other way

counter steer donuts are the way i found out how/why it does that, and i must say it is the coolest thing ever.

[raulck_hn17]

agree but i dont think its very good for the steering components

[xXxJohnnyxXx]

well that is true, but in my opinion its better then trying to force the steering wheel over. but like i said my opinion.

[Photonic]

agree but i dont think its very good for the steering components

I dont see how letting the wheels caster themselves is hard on the steering componants unless you let the wheel spin all the way untill it stops.

This is actually the ONE improvement Ive made that has helped me out ass loads ^_^

[xXxJohnnyxXx]

from my experiance were almost about right,
not to say im wrong or your wrong or any of that stuff.

just from me, i bought a 240 with an aftermarket steering wheel and yes its a crappy one, and when i go to slide it or counter steer it,
the steerring wheel looses alignment. instead of perfectly centerd it will be rotated to the left a little bit and be "in the center" so to say.

[P.Haire]

is this a serious thread?

[down_shift]

not anymore, the thread could have been closed after post #5.

I was also surprised at this the first time I went sliding in my coupe. I wanted to counter streer myself but the car did it better by itself

find an empty lot. and learn how your car responds to every imput.
beat the hell out of yourself and the car while driving it. it will give you a better understanding and then most things will become involuntary.

You're no allowed to post in this thread anymore.



SLy, Go to the Malibu meet and to Kiss Kiss. You'll learn alot more by asking people there and watching than asking questions on this retarded forum.
