just watched all of your progression thus far and it's amazing! i'm glad there is someone making drifting progession videos in more length. i'm about to get a moza r5 and i'm very excited to learn how to drift on it! watching your vids gives me a good understanding of what i should pursue in regards to basics and the timeframe for learning these things. can't wait to see your progression in the future!
hey :). I stumbled across your videos and I'm loving them. I've been sim drifting for around 2 years now and, whilst I'm no pro, I can definitely hold a tandem for a while in servers. I noticed you had a habit of "stabbing" the throttle. It would often cause your car to stall out of a drift. An example would be at 3:33. If you're looking to modulate the throttle, less dramatic modulations will give you more control of the car. Think of it more like "squeezing". Just remember the car reacts to whatever you do in a delayed way. If you let go of the throttle, which you only do when transitioning or using the handbrake, the car will want to do jus that, but a moments later. Same thing with countersteering. If trying to cut power (let's say youve got too much angle), think about using the clutch as its much more effective at cutting power to the wheels than letting the accelerator go, since letting off the throttle slowly lowers RPM to wheels, whilst clutch does it immediately.
This by far is your best video, you gave such good useful information…. I will have to try this out on my John Deere tractor in farm simulator 22… LOL LOL
Hope you’re still going with this buddy! Just wanted to give a tip that helped me. You need to use a longer gear, right now you’re either full on or full off but if you use a longer gear like 2ed at 75mph ish you can modulate the throttle which means you can modulate your grip. Good luck!
Hey man nice vid and keep it up! I want to give some tips 1. Learn wheel tracing : it helps you to now where the car’s steering and to give counter steer faster and better 2. Clutch kicks: there are good fore initiating drifts 3. If you have a E break use it to initiate drift to ( remember to put the clutch in when doing that ) You can watch Noriyaro he’s a great TH-cam drifter. And always have fun and pasión! Cheers bro
Yo please make more progression videos! I'm getting a setup for Christmas and would love to see how far you've come so that I know somewhat what to expect. I know that everyone learns at a different pace, just want to see your pace.
hey :) I taught one of my friends in around 2 months. He's not perfect, but it's much better than what I did after 2 months. Here's a few tips: -Be gentle. The car doesn't want to wrestle with you, so work with it. Squeeze the throttle, squeeze brake, don't stab. -If you're frustrated, do something else. It's super easy to get frustrated whilst learning the ropes, so my advice would be to do something else on the wheel. That way, you can work on car control still, which actually still improves your drifting, without drifting. -Start with drifting in a circle, then figure 8s, then one corner, then multiple corners, then a whole track. Building up is really key, because the speed also increases over time. -Start learning with your wheel at 720 degrees of rotation (this should be around a week). This comes with the idea that there are two things that control your car in drifting: your wheel and your pedals. It's much, MUCH harder to learn both at the same time. By lowering the wheel rotation, it's much easier to counter steer, which let's you learn how each pedal can be used, enough so you're ready for 900 degrees without feeling like you're overwhelmed -Get a belt-driven or direct drive wheel instead of gear-based. Logitech wheels are much harder to learn to drift on because they're just much slower to react. Thrustmaster wheels are belt driven, and the next step up would be a direct-drive wheel, but those are expensive, and to be honest I'm doing well just on a T300.
hi i just started learning how to drift as well on a g29 and since i dont have a ebrake im learning clutch kicking. Its so good to see another struggler going through the same journey and with a similar progress as well! although i have alot of trouble with exits as my car wobbles need to work on my throttling. Hope to drift with you someday when we get better
I hope some of these help :) Transitions: -Letting go of throttle = transition. -The car has a delayed reaction to everything you do, so letting go of the throttle and waiting for the car to transition will mean it's too late. -You'll need to get on the throttle pretty much straight after you let go of the throttle. -SQUEEZE THE THROTTLE DON'T STAB. -Make sure you're countersteering earlier, rather than later.

Show me some sick drifts!!

We def need to get on a server and start some janky drifts

Loving these videos would be really cool to see your foot work too.
quick tip start using the nismo 4:1:1 gears most ppl i know use it
Have you tried onboard cam instead of orbit cam? It should let you see the rotation a lot better if your cam is fixed to the car
What is the map called?
What car do you use
can u share g29 config? on AC and Ghub?
map name please
Airport Drift Track - it’s a mod you can download if you are on pc
Man I am having the worst time with transitions. We should definitely hit up an empty server and wreck our cars.
Also I'm happy you uploaded again. It's nice to see someone going through the same thing as you.
Let’s do it sometime! Transitioning is tough at first!
ill join in with you guys lol, i just started learning@@BiPolarPolarBearGames
I hope some of these help :)
Transitions:
-Letting go of throttle = transition.
-The car has a delayed reaction to everything you do, so letting go of the throttle and waiting for the car to transition will mean it's too late.
-You'll need to get on the throttle pretty much straight after you let go of the throttle.
-SQUEEZE THE THROTTLE DON'T STAB.
-Make sure you're countersteering earlier, rather than later.
