@@sleepingturtle32 it depends on the car but yea the default cars are pretty realistic. cool thing about beamng is how every part is fully modeled and has realish physics applied so you can actually brake stuff from losing body panels lights tires just about everything fuck i ripped off my exhaust the other day trying to drive over a curb. the issue is the community is exactly huge
My man, I've learned so much from you and your channel. I dont even own a wheel nor a drift car but obviously love drifting. You're an incredible instructor and have such a calm and precise way of explaining things- it's really priceless. Thank you for your time and effort and it is very much appreciated.
Understanding it in your head is totally different than applying the information. Ive watched people drift and i can do it in a real car but in a sim? all the info in the world hasnt helped me figure it out yet lol. fml
@Lover boy but this video is a little different to just watching a mike tyson fight, because mike tyson doesn't explain what he's doing while fighting does he? information is more important than practice, because without the right information first your practice will be worthless
@@sausagedealer3061 in upper level combat training (secret service, etc.) you actually do get shot (with rubber bullets) but you're right, you can learn certain things without the experience
Alex Ramirez thanks guys, I’m going to be doing a lot more vids breaking down specific aspects of drifting so I think there will be a lot of good info for you. From my side, it’s awesome being able to break down these tips without having to find a venue and spend money on tires for the IRL car 🤣
I've got 500 hours in Assetto.... Why am I watching this 🤣 but really this is an amazing explanation of drifting, need to send this vid to my mate tomorrow when he gets his Thrustmaster.
Glad to hear it didn’t leave anything out 🤓 Definitely would appreciate experienced and intermediate level drifters sharing this out to beginners so we have more rad tandem buddies soon!✌🏻
Absolutely! Most players are on gear drive units, either cause they don’t know about the other options (Logitech has great brand awareness) or cause of the higher price, I don’t want to leave that big group of people without some advice 👌🏻
Just put together a sim rig and had no idea it was so hard to drift. You make it look so easy. Catching the wheel to catch the drift at the exact point is definitely going to take some practice. I might have to turn my FFB down a bit too. Thanks for the video
Thank you, hope this video helps! It’s definitely one of those “simple but not easy” type things. And the better you get the more challenging you can make it, it’s fun 🤙🏻
@@KameTrick Definitely helps! I'm actually really happy it's not easy. I can see how it really takes some attention which is exactly what I want. I'm a new follower and look forward to your live streams. hopefully I can get good enough to hang!
For anyone completely new to drifting - what I found to be helping me the most was actually not using 900° wheel rotation. I tried drifting with a 900° rotation for like 10 hours and couldn't really keep the car in drifts for too long or even transition really and got kinda frustrated but then I read about turning it down as a beginner. When I switched to 540° wheel rotation I actually managed to do some good drifts and even chain corners. 4 hours after I can do a complete Lap in Drifters Paradise (the map Kame is using here). The tips from this video and the reduction of my wheel rotation worked out beautiful!
something i can add from myself is if u using a g29 ur throttle pedal probably has a short click so in assetto u have to go into the settings and then control>axis u have to change max power of throttle to 60-70%, then u can more accurately feel a throttle, it helped me a lot so i thought i can share it with u.
This game has been popping up on my TH-cam feed for the last month and I finally saw the game for free on Xbox pass. I downloaded it grabbed the fastest car I could and went on a map and I figured out really fast to that I am not ready for a racing game of this level yet. I never thought I'd see the day where I was looking up tutorial videos for a racing game 🤣
Ive recently started learning to drift in vr and had a pretty hard time getting the hang of it, but after quite some time im improving alot. I recommend it to everyone and even if you suck at first just keep on patiently and strictly practicing
Tey Tyes I agree 100%. Basically you have to build up experience over time, until you can predict what inputs will cause what changes to the car a second or two from now as you drive. Once you start to amass enough info to get more accurate predictions you’ll be over the hump and drifting gets a lot more fun and rewarding 😁
I can't legally drive yet (16M), But this has opened my eyes into my extremely common mistakes. Thank you for making this tutorial, you've just earned a sub.
Coop same, I recently learned how to drift in assetto corsa ps4 version with my g29, at first it was hard but after a week or so I learned how to drift, I’ve been loving it since
Top tip once you have everything setup start with somthing other than tando buddies car pack. Cars are tooo easy for drifting try other car packs also stick force feedback up aswell it can take it
Awesome! I’m always stoked when I hear someone’s getting into drifting, whether it’s sim or IRL. Cars and driving is really fun so I want to help grow the community as much as I can :)
I just got Assetto Corsa and a Trustmaster t300rs gt and Im having a hard time trying to drift so Imma try to use this tutorial and Im gonna see how it goes. Update: Thank you so much your tips actually made me drift some corners. Ofcourse Im far from good but Im really getting way better because Im using your tips.
@@Kevin-tg8zj I’m using Fanatec CSW, but I believe a T300 is the most affordable wheel that has a belt drive and will work well for drifting. Other options worth considering are the TS-PC/TS-XW, and Fanatec CSL Elite or CSW
@@KameTrick thank you so much for replying. Your advise helped me pretty well! Keep up the drifting , I’ll join the discord to see the settings of the Thrustmaster RS GT . (L)
holy shit. I watched this video in two sittings. I can bloody sim drift now. Like flicking a switch! Closer and closer to being ready for my first drift event. Car is all ready. ^^ Thanks Kame!
Thank you! You might check out this video and the ones after it for more on exiting drifts. I haven’t made a dedicated video on it, but I talk about it some in both. Basically it’s a matter of balancing the car-it’s great that you can balance it mid-drift, now you have to learn how to balance it as you unload all that sideways energy without letting it whip you around. th-cam.com/video/RtCfqohMhl0/w-d-xo.html

Lut file has really helped me since i have a Logitech. I literally could not drift before because i was expecting the countersteer to be more realistic.
For the people out there using a logitech wheel!!!! This video has helped me so much especially when building my confidence in drifting BUT 1 Thing you should try is starting with your steering rotation at 540 or 720 and then make your way up to 900 eventually for me this was way easier to understand the whole concept.
No wonder I've been having a tough time just leaving the wheel to 'steer itself.' My G29's gear-driven motor just doesn't spin right and I end up having to put too much input. Thanks for the video, learned a lot!
Wikicunt Im doing the best I can 😁 The community have been helped to spread the word to friends who’re looking for help learning techniques or just want to see good tandems!🙌🏻
You could set up an eDrift academy, preparing people in the SIM and then taking them to the track IRL. Your explanations are awesome! I got a drifting experience as a gift and getting a G27 to help me take the most out of the 5 laps I'll get. Looking forward to applying your advice!
Man, your words are golden on the gear drive wheels... I drive an s13 hatch irl and use an old G25 to practice in between events. Every time I sit back to the sim from the car I keep spinning out and loosing it all the time until I adjust myself to start throwing the wheel as you explained. Then I sit back to my car and have to adjust back to letting the wheel do its job. I'm giving up on my Logitech finally and go for something belt driven, cause it really does not help me doing real practice :( Thanks for explaining that and kind of helping me to realize I need a better wheel :) I love your vids and that v8 beast, too :)
Yeah, it’s something people who don’t drive IRL seem to not mind, but a dealbreaker if you already have an IRL technique you’re trying to build on IMHO. A belt or DD wheel will do the trick, for sure 👌🏻
@@KameTrick Coming from someone who is just getting into the drift world, you have inspired me to get a sim setup (while I prep my is300 Irl), I'll definitely be looking forward to you new vid. Keep up the quality content!
@@ryanguillory6647 ooh IS300 is a neat choice, I’ve tandemed with one a few times :) Just get a belt drive wheel like the T300 otherwise it’s not worth it IMHO :)
i don't know how to use wheel while drifting for transition and giving a lot of throttle but by watching ur videos I can learn it so easily, thanks man
@Zwenk Wiel Never felt grip car always felt floaty until I used it. .. the curve was almost reversed and it worked much better imo . Not the best drift wheel being small and lower on the ffb scale. But were out here throwing it.
Thank you for this video! Good amount of content for getting into SimDirifting! Also, I can totally vouche for everything you said about Logitech wheels. Been working on drifting with one for months now. Early on I thought I was just doing something wrong because the wheel wouldn't rotate fast enough/on its own. Finally realized it wasn't my lack of skill, but instead the hardware. Love your stuff. Keep it up!
man don't wanna be that guy but it definitely was you, I drift on a g27 without any problems with good force feedback, obviously not as smooth as a belt-driven Know lots of people with Logitech's drifting on ac
Awesome video! Wish this video was around when I started drifting on Assetto. Unfortunately still using the Logitech wheel but you get used to "throwing the wheel". I can confirm that generating a LUT file for a Logitech wheel does wonders for Assetto! Hopefully we'll get some doors on one of your streams again sometime.
With the help of more skilled friends I quickly realized this was my issue as well, so Ive just learned to force myself to throw the wheel. Gotta upgrade to at least Thrustmaster one day
Omg you just said two things that immediately taught me how to drift. One, you catch the drift BEFORE getting back on the throttle, Two, THROW THE WHEEL!! OMG I've been trying to rely on my g920 motor and as soon as you started talking about that I tried throwing the wheel and taking control of it instead of using the motor... immediately drifted, now I'm linking corners and nearly linking the entire drift map however I want 20mins later... THANK YOU
I take that assist comment back. I increased the front caster and camper and now its working just as you say. I dont even flick it as much if not at 99% of the time. I appreciate the tips it has helped me a lot. Thanks.
Yes sir, glad to help! The flick technique can still be helpful on fast transitions and for attempting backward entries (see my video on them) but often time you don’t *need* to use them unless you just prefer to 👍🏻 Happy sliding!
Man, I’ve been trying to learn how to drift for years, and just could not pick it up. After watching this video, I slowly started to understand what each input does to the car- and now I’m getting. Got to level 14 on AC drift track last night and was stoked! I actually got tired drifting, so I took a break. Thank you, Man!
Brilliant breakdown! I have a logitech g25 & just got into drifting... I'm slowly getting the feel for transitioning, but haven't quite got a fully linked drift around the drift playground map!
finally someone who explained the differences between FFB technologies. most people just say "belt is better than gear", i never knew that the speed of the FFB is what is actually important, not the strength. i almost bought a g29 for drifting today.
If drifting is your focus and you can afford it, a proper belt drive wheel is always worth it. I have several recommendations in my video description 👍🏻
Absoluetly great video for beginners. People underestimate how difficult sim drifting can be but through this tutorial, many will be able to learn without too much of a headache. I will be sharing this with anyone who needs help sim drifting.
I've started learning how to drift in AC about a month ago and it's been a slow (its 100% my G29's fault because i'm the best drifter in the world!) frustrating yet hugely satisfying experience. This is by far the most extensive drifting tutorial i've come across and i can't express how much i appreciate the work put into it!
Thank you very much, I know it could be a little more engaging to watch but the info is solid. I’m probably going to remake and update my tutorials along with adding new ones next year
Hey man, my clutch literally doesn’t clutch kick and I don’t know why it doesn’t do anything when I go to clutch kick, I have the g920, do you know what the problem is or how to fix it?
@@themarvel779 I have the g920 and dont have this issue. Make sure your pedals are setup right in settings maybe? Also don't expect a crazy clutch kick from some of those cars. The M3 drift setups is where the clutch kicks shine.
Thank you dorifto sensei. You've helped me a ton. Hopefully I can get more seat time and self steer working correctly so I can feel confident hopping in a lobby. Totally getting there.
I was missing the brake in corners and mid transitions. So simple, yet so game-changing. Very literally beat 3 PB back to back after watching this video at 1am lol. Thank you so much!
Thanks so much for taking the time to say so-I really enjoy helping drifting “click” for people and the whole reason I put 10-15 hours of filming and editing (I’m slow lol 💀) into making this video was to do exactly this 👏🏻 The discovery and eventual mastery is all you, so well done. I’m just glad I could help clear away some of the mist so you could better see the path and level up 🙌🏻

@@Tox1cAshes First of all, 300 bucks is "cheap as hell" if you're an adult, different story if you're a 14 year old trying to get into this. Second of all, it can very commonly bought on sale with the shifter included for about 200 USD brand new, and you can get them used for absolute dirt cheap
First time on this channel. 48year old non gamer. Have a 350z i want to street style /occasional drift. But want to get into sim driving for. Year b4 i actually start real drifting. My z is clean and i intend to keep it that way lol. Thank you for putting in the work on such killer content binge-watching everything subscription and notifications on!
I'm a natural born drift god. When I was a baby, I only crawled sideways. When I was 3 I kept ruining all my tricycle tyres. When I was 6 my radio flyer bladed snow sled was faster with 90 degrees angle. I'm still waiting for my hall of Fame invitation but I decided to go ahead and commission my Greatest of all time plaque. But I'm humble though. Probably the humblest driver that ever lived really. Don't feel too intimidated to ask me questions Bois. No flash photography please 😜
Kilo 461 thanks! To me, grip and drift are two sides of the same coin, I know grip is faster but also think a solid comfort level for controlling slides can produce a more well rounded and capable driver even for grip racers 👍🏻
What do you think about Fanatec CSL Elite WB v1.1 for drifting? it's supposedly not as good as what you were using at the time(8Nm Fanatec CSW v2.5) but i could get second hand CSL somewhat cheapish right now🤔
The CSL Elite wheelbase was pretty good from what I remember, though the pedal set that comes with it isn’t as good as the Clubsport v3 pedals. If you are strapped for cash it’s an adequate wheel for drift simulation 👍🏻 Though you might buy a DD later (due to the wheel breaking or you wanting more performance in the future) resulting in spending more money total, so it’s also good to take a long term look at buying a DD wheelbase which is a more robust long term solution
@@KameTrick i guess i'll try and haggle the price down a bit or just look at Fanatec CSL DD bundle or Moza R5 bundle. Got a bit of a simdrift fever since i got to try out a littlebit 😁 My old G920 logitech just feels awful compared to the setup what i tested.
I have a confession to make and this is the only place I can think of for me to share as I've been following this video religiously for about 3 days now. I was struggling very hard, got LUTs, my friend's FFB settings and everything I could think of. Put around 5-10 hours into this, wondering why I keep messing it up. Low and behold. My Thrustmaster settings were set to 540 degrees instead of 1080. So once I hit the 540 degrees in a turn my brain didn't know that was the max degree and thought I was half way through. For anybody struggling, please check your settings OUTSIDE of AC. I truly feel like an idiot, but am at the same time happy that I can keep a drift for however long I want now, including transitions. FeelsBadMan
Thank you so much for guide and tips. I was wondering why im spinning out af on my driving force GT, but i felt that i had to push it so much that i scratched my hands. Still, can get already on some corners but it feels frustrating. Planing to get T300.
Exactly: it’s definitely possible to drive around the shortcomings of a gear drive wheel, but it’s nicer (and 99% of the time more realistic) to use a wheel that can self steer faster like a belt or direct drive 👍🏻
Drift King101 a 4 wheel drift means all 4 tires are sliding instead of just the back 2 like in this tutorial. *Technically* a backwards entry is a 4 wheel drift during the times when the car is past 90 degrees sideways: the front tires are also not facing anywhere close to the direction the car is going th-cam.com/video/ezdvoN9oATQ/w-d-xo.html You’re probably talking about the Initial D reference though, since backwards entries aren’t fast ways through a corner by any stretch😆
As a logitech user, I have found that reducing the degrees of rotation from 900 degrees to around 720 degrees. I agree that the wheel is slow to respond and I find myself "chucking" the wheel. However, with the lesser rotation, the wheel car will react as fast as I need it, even though the wheel is slow. What is your opinion on this method?
Balisage that’s a good tip 👍🏻 Reducing degrees of rotation is a “sim specific” option that works fine, your reasoning is spot on. I probably should have suggested it, sometimes my IRL experience makes me “drive around” issues that can’t be adjusted easily on a real car haha 😅
I've been rocking a G920 for around half a year and forcing the wheel came really natural to me. Youre definately right about the wheel being limiting but from what I can tell if you stick to the WDT cars you can become VERY consistent, especially if throwing the wheel is more your style.
You can definitely drive around it, it’s just not something that happens in real cars unless they have a big issue with caster and steering geometry settings. Of course throwing the wheel is a stylistic preference at that point, like most drivers I do it for some corners/situations, but not all ✌🏻
Definitely the best tutorial I've seen so far, im really struggling to stop spinning out and most vids don't really go into the mechanics, this broke it down into easy to to find changes i need to make. Thank you🤙🤙
Hey Kev, the main track I’m using is usually referred to as Klutch Kickers, it’s an IRL track in Florida. If you’re curious about a track from footage I put up during explanations of techniques time stamp it and I’ll let you know ✌🏻
The best advice I can come up with: drifting is a smooth driving style. Don't do harsh corrections on the wheel, and in general, you should never cross your arms when drifting. Let the car control the wheel, and simply make small adjustments. Great video Kame Trick!
Even though I'm pretty good in drifting now, I still come back to this video and watch for fun. It's like a podcast. I enjoy listening to you talk about drifting. This video is definitely a beginner's guide to drifting. Great stuff kame.
Thank you! I’m going to make more as soon as my new wheelbase comes in :) Some short and fast vids to attract new viewers along with in depth, longer ones for ppl who already know what to expect from me and want more 👍🏻
You know, Im gonna try your tips in Forza Horizon 4, because I really want to learn how to drift. IF I cannot do it, after your tips, then the problem is clearly between the xbox and the sofa... Great vid man! You are amzng.
I'm doing my research in getting into this field and the direct drive wheels have become super affordable in comparison to the belt wheels now. A Moza wheel and pedal setup can now be bought for $400-$500 which is right around the price of a Thrustmaster T300. I have also noticed that many wheels have flat bottoms which seems to me to be not as good for drifting since you let the wheel slide through your hands so much and a round wheel is the way to go. It may be a while before I buy a rig but man, I can't wait! Great video BTW.
I agree, if you can wait a couple more paychecks the DD option is a great move unless you’re ultra-budget or not sure you’ll want to stick with it. If you have a little bit more income to work with or the patience to save, jumping right into a Moza or Simagic is pretty solid. Personally, I run a VRS DirectForce Pro FWIW. 100# on the fully round wheel as well, it’s worth it to have one
Another tip that I think might help is, if you're at full lock it's usually a good sign you're gonna spin or you're pushing it. So, reduce throttle "NOT COMPLETELY" but to about 20% or so. Then as the steering angle reduces get back on the throttle. The reason for this is if you don't have room to counter-steer anymore you're likely to spin. If you have more room to counter-steer you can save yourself.
And also the idea is to create smooth transitions from GRIP to SLIDE. So feathering the throttle can work for some on and off fast etc. Aggressive throttle work can make the car feel very unstable.
THIS IS WHAT I WAS FUCKING LOOKING FOR!! nobody in the entirety of my TH-cam searches has been this in depth as well as understandable about throttle and counter steer.
Thank you for making this. I was tired of finding 15 year old kids making shit TH-cam videos trying to explain drifting. Having someone who actually has drifted cars explain it to you made it so much better. Thanks!
Wow, I just went from g920 to thrustmaster TX leather edition and I must say... The difference is insane! I'm new AC drifting, been mainly doing donuts and figure 8's. I struggled with transitions on the g920 but right after switching to the TX, I have it almost on lock down right away! Now on the TX, it's mostly throttle control and wax on wax off with the wheel! Thanks!
I just got the same tx wheel today, could you help me get the force feedback and settings well because it feels like im fighting the wheel too much thanks.
@@GamingWithLeo_YT you can try to enable post-processing set to gamma and then play around between 50% - 100% to make it lighter. I think having it too low causes the wheel to bounce around when going straight with hands off wheel
I’ve been learning to drift with my wheel from trial and error slowly implementing tips I’ve seen on TH-cam and professional drifters. I can truly say the biggest cause is definitely the wheel motors. I’ve found myself drifting better when throwing around my Logitech G920 to help get the angle right. It took you explaining it for me to realize it kinda has to be done because it’s not powerful/quick enough to turn on its own. I believe I could become a lot better after watching this video now that I know what to practice and how I can focus on it.
I’m glad to hear that, in your case the wheel base requires some extra effort to make work…it’s actually harder that drifting a real car😅 But the muscle memory and stuff you learn from it can still help you if you transition to the real thing in the future, so don’t stress too much. That said, upgrading to a belt drive or DD wheel in the future would be the best move you could make 👌🏻
@@KameTrick yea I’ve been hearing it’s a lot easier to drift in real life vs a sim. I don’t plan on doing real drifting anytime soon but it makes it exciting to know I might have a way better time when I do lol. I truly enjoyed the tips, I was able to apply them last night and was able to connect my turns without losing control. And it only took me one lap to make the little adjustments ☺️ can’t wait to check out more of your videos
Finally I have answer to my issues. I've bought an unused g25 two days ago. (The guy kept it as a spare one.) and I couldn't figure out why does it feel like cars have basically no caster and have to help it countersteer every single time. Now I have my answer. Thank you.
Yeeep, sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Your best bet is to run lower degrees of rotation like 540 you the wheel doesn’t have as far to go and then install wheelcheck and a LUT
@@KameTrick to be fair it's not that bad. I have a fake nardi on and playing on 900. It kinda feels like an inline6 bmw where you have to help just a little bit to countersteer. I think I've got used to it already doing transitions and such. Next step is the touge I guess✌🏻
This guide was extremely helpful. I have a G29, and was having the exact issue you said I would. Not quick enough recentering. I fixed this by changing the wheel in game and in G Hub to 540°. I can now drift and I am having such a blast.
Yeah, I need to remake this guide with reduced rotation as a tip, I don’t think I specifically called it out. I’m glad it could help, have fun on track!
dude... you helped me so mutch to go deeper in the rabbithole... I got a TS-XW and this was the most helpful video I have watched in a while. thank you bro!
That’s an excellent wheel base, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it and over time you’ll develop the chips to be able to drift real cars decently too, should the opportunity arise 👏🏻
@Kame Trick I try to understand how the basics works for a half year now and only after watching this video I was to able to finaly make some real progress! Thank you so much man! I realy appreciate your help and wish you the best! ❤️✌️
This helped me so much. Understanding how throttle affects the snapback on corner exit. Slowly getting out of the throttle as the car re-centers is the key. I also have found that a high FFB on assetto is needed for the wheel to self rotate. Then, adjusting FFB in the wheel driver for overall force. Also "slip effects" in AC settings seems to have an impact along with keeping FFB tweaks in CSP off. (I'm on a Thrustmaster TX)
Yes.. Thank you for the flick-trick on g29s. I noticed people do it but thought it was just bc of the car or its setup. This and lut really take things on another level.
This was very well explained, now all I need is the same but for FWD. I am able to feel the throttle/steering wheel relationship IRL, but putting it in words and laying out the exact technique is proving to be difficult. It certainly doesn't help that all drifting content is either about RWD or handbrake sliding
Most people I know have FWD cars when they first start driving, even back in the day when affordable RWD was more common. I did my first Ebrake slides in a friends Honda Prelude and Acura Integra so I know the feeling😅 In a nutshell, the entry phase of any technique that has to do with foot brake or hand brake works the exact same...but as soon as a step involves accelerating it’s no longer relevant to FWD cars. FF’s can only enter fast, go sideways, and gradually lose speed until they can’t stay sideways, where RWD can get sideways and stay that way indefinitely due to the drivetrain layout. I may make an “FWD sliding techniques” type video at some point in 2022, but until then, good luck with your driving!
Thank you 🙏🏻 I wish I was posting more often but have had a bunch of health issues to overcome this year ❤️🩹 I still post when I can, though. Check out this IRL series which all applies to sim but is marketed toward the IRL drivers a bit more: th-cam.com/video/RtCfqohMhl0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1IoTRPG6gSKlIEzz Currently have 3 vids in that series and may do more in the future
Hey man, I'm 2 years late to this conversation but I had to say thank you. I have a Logitech g920 cheap setup and I kept spinning out with this particular car pack. I went in the sim and loaded the same track as you with same car while watching your video at the same time and because of your tips and tricks I was able to do 2 full almost perfect lap without spinning out. I have never drifted IRL and also never used another type of wheel so now I understand why I have to throw the wheel unlike you! Thanks again mate. Can't wait to get a better wheel though X)
It’s never too late to take the next step in building your drift skills! I’m glad you gave this video a chance, looking back on it now I might ramble way too much in it, but the info’s rock solid😅 Check out my new stuff for more drift technique breakdowns!
I have a G27, getting a LUT file and messing with other ffb settings got it pretty good in AC. As a learner it improved my ability to link "easier" tracks without many issues + some others after more practice. And if I manage the pedals just a little bit it self steers pretty strong and good. I have discovered that tapping of the brakes technique while experimenting by myself, it gave the wheel some extra time to rotate, I was pretty much letting go of it everywhere. But I have found that part of it depended on the car pack/car used, although it might just be me still learning and I know nothing about suspension tuning etc..
I just got a g29 yesterday and started learning how to drift in assetto. My biggest problem is the end of my drifts tend to twist when I try straightening it at the end of the corner. Thank god I have this video to learn and understand more about drifting.
Ah yeah, that’s an often overlooked element (in my vid too a bit 🤦🏻♂️) but basically you’re balancing the spinning tires with countersteer, and as you let off throttle you reduce countersteer. If throttle comes off too fast, the car will grip up and sort of shoot in the direction of your steering. If steering comes off too fast, the car may pick up angle and “park” sideways or spin.
Just getting into drifting in assetto and ordered my g29 so i am so excited been using the hori wheel and its so bad drifting with only 90 degrees but g29 gets here in 2 days thank you for all the tutorials
@Brandon Bernard Yep! It was worth it specially for Sim racing the only problem I had was with my brake pedal but I switched the spring and fixed it I believe it was just a mistake with mines but overall it's awesome and I recommend it specially if your going to Sim race it's also very easy to set up
I already learned how to spin out without drifting. I'm pretty good at it.

I love drifting and want to see it grow, thanks for the kind words and support!🙌🏻
Understanding it in your head is totally different than applying the information. Ive watched people drift and i can do it in a real car but in a sim? all the info in the world hasnt helped me figure it out yet lol. fml

Just put together a sim rig and had no idea it was so hard to drift. You make it look so easy. Catching the wheel to catch the drift at the exact point is definitely going to take some practice. I might have to turn my FFB down a bit too. Thanks for the video

@@KameTrick the most important I assume is throttle control.
How are you now?
For anyone completely new to drifting - what I found to be helping me the most was actually not using 900° wheel rotation. I tried drifting with a 900° rotation for like 10 hours and couldn't really keep the car in drifts for too long or even transition really and got kinda frustrated but then I read about turning it down as a beginner. When I switched to 540° wheel rotation I actually managed to do some good drifts and even chain corners. 4 hours after I can do a complete Lap in Drifters Paradise (the map Kame is using here). The tips from this video and the reduction of my wheel rotation worked out beautiful!
7 months later, I’m sure you’re much better lmao. I just started so ima try 540, thanks
@@Ake_zzz I improved quite a bit yeah :D Good luck!
something i can add from myself is if u using a g29 ur throttle pedal probably has a short click so in assetto u have to go into the settings and then control>axis u have to change max power of throttle to 60-70%, then u can more accurately feel a throttle, it helped me a lot so i thought i can share it with u.
@@duzzastral3995 g29 pedals are garbage i've been using the clutch pedal as brake pedal for ages. thanks for a good tip

This game has been popping up on my TH-cam feed for the last month and I finally saw the game for free on Xbox pass. I downloaded it grabbed the fastest car I could and went on a map and I figured out really fast to that I am not ready for a racing game of this level yet. I never thought I'd see the day where I was looking up tutorial videos for a racing game 🤣
Ive recently started learning to drift in vr and had a pretty hard time getting the hang of it, but after quite some time im improving alot. I recommend it to everyone and even if you suck at first just keep on patiently and strictly practicing
Tey Tyes I agree 100%. Basically you have to build up experience over time, until you can predict what inputs will cause what changes to the car a second or two from now as you drive. Once you start to amass enough info to get more accurate predictions you’ll be over the hump and drifting gets a lot more fun and rewarding 😁
I can't legally drive yet (16M), But this has opened my eyes into my extremely common mistakes. Thank you for making this tutorial, you've just earned a sub.

Lut file has really helped me since i have a Logitech. I literally could not drift before because i was expecting the countersteer to be more realistic.
For the people out there using a logitech wheel!!!!
This video has helped me so much especially when building my confidence in drifting BUT
1 Thing you should try is starting with your steering rotation at 540 or 720 and then make your way up to 900 eventually
for me this was way easier to understand the whole concept.
That is a good option that I should have mentioned😅
No wonder I've been having a tough time just leaving the wheel to 'steer itself.' My G29's gear-driven motor just doesn't spin right and I end up having to put too much input. Thanks for the video, learned a lot!

Oh nice, it’s a fun time! If I had a venue I’d do a lot more in person instruction
Man, your words are golden on the gear drive wheels... I drive an s13 hatch irl and use an old G25 to practice in between events. Every time I sit back to the sim from the car I keep spinning out and loosing it all the time until I adjust myself to start throwing the wheel as you explained. Then I sit back to my car and have to adjust back to letting the wheel do its job.
I'm giving up on my Logitech finally and go for something belt driven, cause it really does not help me doing real practice :(
Thanks for explaining that and kind of helping me to realize I need a better wheel :)
I love your vids and that v8 beast, too :)
Yeah, it’s something people who don’t drive IRL seem to not mind, but a dealbreaker if you already have an IRL technique you’re trying to build on IMHO. A belt or DD wheel will do the trick, for sure 👌🏻

Thank you for this video! Good amount of content for getting into SimDirifting! Also, I can totally vouche for everything you said about Logitech wheels. Been working on drifting with one for months now. Early on I thought I was just doing something wrong because the wheel wouldn't rotate fast enough/on its own. Finally realized it wasn't my lack of skill, but instead the hardware. Love your stuff. Keep it up!
Yeah, they’re a handful 😬 I wish there was a more affordable belt drive option for the drift fam 🤓
man don't wanna be that guy but it definitely was you, I drift on a g27 without any problems with good force feedback, obviously not as smooth as a belt-driven
Know lots of people with Logitech's drifting on ac
Turn down your wheel rotation
Awesome video! Wish this video was around when I started drifting on Assetto. Unfortunately still using the Logitech wheel but you get used to "throwing the wheel". I can confirm that generating a LUT file for a Logitech wheel does wonders for Assetto! Hopefully we'll get some doors on one of your streams again sometime.
Yeah I didn't even realise I was throwing the wheel until he said it. It just seems natural for me to "throw the wheel"
With the help of more skilled friends I quickly realized this was my issue as well, so Ive just learned to force myself to throw the wheel.
Gotta upgrade to at least Thrustmaster one day
Amazing skill, thank you for teaching it !
Bretzel etouffeur thank you! I just want to grow the drift community and help level up the quality of driving 🤙🏻
Omg you just said two things that immediately taught me how to drift. One, you catch the drift BEFORE getting back on the throttle, Two, THROW THE WHEEL!! OMG I've been trying to rely on my g920 motor and as soon as you started talking about that I tried throwing the wheel and taking control of it instead of using the motor... immediately drifted, now I'm linking corners and nearly linking the entire drift map however I want 20mins later... THANK YOU
That's what we like to hear! Way to go!
I take that assist comment back. I increased the front caster and camper and now its working just as you say. I dont even flick it as much if not at 99% of the time. I appreciate the tips it has helped me a lot. Thanks.

finally someone who explained the differences between FFB technologies. most people just say "belt is better than gear", i never knew that the speed of the FFB is what is actually important, not the strength. i almost bought a g29 for drifting today.
If drifting is your focus and you can afford it, a proper belt drive wheel is always worth it. I have several recommendations in my video description 👍🏻

BRO PERFECT TIMING I LITERALLY JUST STARTED PLAYING ASSETTO CORSA IN VR WITH A WHEEL TRYING TO DRIFT
This is the channel for you, then!😁
Watching this to figure out what to do when I spin while racing. Very informative.
Kilo 461 thanks! To me, grip and drift are two sides of the same coin, I know grip is faster but also think a solid comfort level for controlling slides can produce a more well rounded and capable driver even for grip racers 👍🏻
What do you think about Fanatec CSL Elite WB v1.1 for drifting? it's supposedly not as good as what you were using at the time(8Nm Fanatec CSW v2.5) but i could get second hand CSL somewhat cheapish right now🤔
The CSL Elite wheelbase was pretty good from what I remember, though the pedal set that comes with it isn’t as good as the Clubsport v3 pedals. If you are strapped for cash it’s an adequate wheel for drift simulation 👍🏻 Though you might buy a DD later (due to the wheel breaking or you wanting more performance in the future) resulting in spending more money total, so it’s also good to take a long term look at buying a DD wheelbase which is a more robust long term solution
@@KameTrick i guess i'll try and haggle the price down a bit or just look at Fanatec CSL DD bundle or Moza R5 bundle. Got a bit of a simdrift fever since i got to try out a littlebit 😁 My old G920 logitech just feels awful compared to the setup what i tested.
00:00 he really had to flex that engine at us

Thanks for the video. After years of playing with a G27, never being able to drift it looks like it's nice to upgrade.
For sure, you’ll love something like a t300 or tx...night and day difference 👌🏻
I have a confession to make and this is the only place I can think of for me to share as I've been following this video religiously for about 3 days now.
I was struggling very hard, got LUTs, my friend's FFB settings and everything I could think of.
Put around 5-10 hours into this, wondering why I keep messing it up.
Low and behold. My Thrustmaster settings were set to 540 degrees instead of 1080.
So once I hit the 540 degrees in a turn my brain didn't know that was the max degree and thought I was half way through.
For anybody struggling, please check your settings OUTSIDE of AC.
I truly feel like an idiot, but am at the same time happy that I can keep a drift for however long I want now, including transitions.
FeelsBadMan
Thank you so much for guide and tips. I was wondering why im spinning out af on my driving force GT, but i felt that i had to push it so much that i scratched my hands. Still, can get already on some corners but it feels frustrating. Planing to get T300.
Exactly: it’s definitely possible to drive around the shortcomings of a gear drive wheel, but it’s nicer (and 99% of the time more realistic) to use a wheel that can self steer faster like a belt or direct drive 👍🏻
Hey can you do a video on how to do a four wheel drift in Asetto Corsa
Drift King101 a 4 wheel drift means all 4 tires are sliding instead of just the back 2 like in this tutorial. *Technically* a backwards entry is a 4 wheel drift during the times when the car is past 90 degrees sideways: the front tires are also not facing anywhere close to the direction the car is going th-cam.com/video/ezdvoN9oATQ/w-d-xo.html
You’re probably talking about the Initial D reference though, since backwards entries aren’t fast ways through a corner by any stretch😆
As a logitech user, I have found that reducing the degrees of rotation from 900 degrees to around 720 degrees. I agree that the wheel is slow to respond and I find myself "chucking" the wheel. However, with the lesser rotation, the wheel car will react as fast as I need it, even though the wheel is slow. What is your opinion on this method?
Balisage that’s a good tip 👍🏻 Reducing degrees of rotation is a “sim specific” option that works fine, your reasoning is spot on.
I probably should have suggested it, sometimes my IRL experience makes me “drive around” issues that can’t be adjusted easily on a real car haha 😅
That's what I do with my TMX aswell. I don't really care about super realism so sometimes I turn it even lower than that and turn into a drift god.
I've been rocking a G920 for around half a year and forcing the wheel came really natural to me. Youre definately right about the wheel being limiting but from what I can tell if you stick to the WDT cars you can become VERY consistent, especially if throwing the wheel is more your style.
You can definitely drive around it, it’s just not something that happens in real cars unless they have a big issue with caster and steering geometry settings. Of course throwing the wheel is a stylistic preference at that point, like most drivers I do it for some corners/situations, but not all ✌🏻
Definitely the best tutorial I've seen so far, im really struggling to stop spinning out and most vids don't really go into the mechanics, this broke it down into easy to to find changes i need to make. Thank you🤙🤙

The best advice I can come up with: drifting is a smooth driving style. Don't do harsh corrections on the wheel, and in general, you should never cross your arms when drifting. Let the car control the wheel, and simply make small adjustments.

I'm doing my research in getting into this field and the direct drive wheels have become super affordable in comparison to the belt wheels now. A Moza wheel and pedal setup can now be bought for $400-$500 which is right around the price of a Thrustmaster T300. I have also noticed that many wheels have flat bottoms which seems to me to be not as good for drifting since you let the wheel slide through your hands so much and a round wheel is the way to go. It may be a while before I buy a rig but man, I can't wait! Great video BTW.
I agree, if you can wait a couple more paychecks the DD option is a great move unless you’re ultra-budget or not sure you’ll want to stick with it. If you have a little bit more income to work with or the patience to save, jumping right into a Moza or Simagic is pretty solid. Personally, I run a VRS DirectForce Pro FWIW. 100# on the fully round wheel as well, it’s worth it to have one
Another tip that I think might help is, if you're at full lock it's usually a good sign you're gonna spin or you're pushing it. So, reduce throttle "NOT COMPLETELY" but to about 20% or so. Then as the steering angle reduces get back on the throttle. The reason for this is if you don't have room to counter-steer anymore you're likely to spin. If you have more room to counter-steer you can save yourself.
And also the idea is to create smooth transitions from GRIP to SLIDE. So feathering the throttle can work for some on and off fast etc. Aggressive throttle work can make the car feel very unstable.
THIS IS WHAT I WAS FUCKING LOOKING FOR!! nobody in the entirety of my TH-cam searches has been this in depth as well as understandable about throttle and counter steer.
Make sure you don’t miss these three then (the first one links to the next 2: th-cam.com/video/RtCfqohMhl0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HomMTQ-oL0oTZucD )
Thank you for making this. I was tired of finding 15 year old kids making shit TH-cam videos trying to explain drifting. Having someone who actually has drifted cars explain it to you made it so much better. Thanks!
I’m glad I was able to help you! I’m going to make some more technique-specific and updated tutorials in the coming months as well 👍🏻
Wow, I just went from g920 to thrustmaster TX leather edition and I must say... The difference is insane! I'm new AC drifting, been mainly doing donuts and figure 8's. I struggled with transitions on the g920 but right after switching to the TX, I have it almost on lock down right away! Now on the TX, it's mostly throttle control and wax on wax off with the wheel! Thanks!
Congratulations on your belt drive wheel! It really is a night and day difference isn’t it? 🙌🏻
I just got the same tx wheel today, could you help me get the force feedback and settings well because it feels like im fighting the wheel too much thanks.
@@GamingWithLeo_YT you can try to enable post-processing set to gamma and then play around between 50% - 100% to make it lighter. I think having it too low causes the wheel to bounce around when going straight with hands off wheel
I used to have LUT but that made my wheel feel way too weak
I am so mad at myself that i went for a g923 instead of a t300rs. But luckily i don't know what the difference is yet and i can drift it pretty well
I’ve been learning to drift with my wheel from trial and error slowly implementing tips I’ve seen on TH-cam and professional drifters. I can truly say the biggest cause is definitely the wheel motors. I’ve found myself drifting better when throwing around my Logitech G920 to help get the angle right. It took you explaining it for me to realize it kinda has to be done because it’s not powerful/quick enough to turn on its own. I believe I could become a lot better after watching this video now that I know what to practice and how I can focus on it.
I’m glad to hear that, in your case the wheel base requires some extra effort to make work…it’s actually harder that drifting a real car😅 But the muscle memory and stuff you learn from it can still help you if you transition to the real thing in the future, so don’t stress too much. That said, upgrading to a belt drive or DD wheel in the future would be the best move you could make 👌🏻
@@KameTrick yea I’ve been hearing it’s a lot easier to drift in real life vs a sim. I don’t plan on doing real drifting anytime soon but it makes it exciting to know I might have a way better time when I do lol. I truly enjoyed the tips, I was able to apply them last night and was able to connect my turns without losing control. And it only took me one lap to make the little adjustments ☺️ can’t wait to check out more of your videos
Finally I have answer to my issues. I've bought an unused g25 two days ago. (The guy kept it as a spare one.) and I couldn't figure out why does it feel like cars have basically no caster and have to help it countersteer every single time. Now I have my answer. Thank you.
Yeeep, sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Your best bet is to run lower degrees of rotation like 540 you the wheel doesn’t have as far to go and then install wheelcheck and a LUT
@@KameTrick to be fair it's not that bad. I have a fake nardi on and playing on 900. It kinda feels like an inline6 bmw where you have to help just a little bit to countersteer. I think I've got used to it already doing transitions and such. Next step is the touge I guess✌🏻
This guide was extremely helpful. I have a G29, and was having the exact issue you said I would. Not quick enough recentering. I fixed this by changing the wheel in game and in G Hub to 540°. I can now drift and I am having such a blast.
Yeah, I need to remake this guide with reduced rotation as a tip, I don’t think I specifically called it out. I’m glad it could help, have fun on track!
it makes me spin out more
Drifting for ten years is nothing, but drifting in Japan? You earned my respect bro
🇯🇵 🍣 🤙🏻
I respect underated TH-camrs that got skills 🤘🤘🤘
Karen Trump thank you! 👋🏻
dude... you helped me so mutch to go deeper in the rabbithole... I got a TS-XW and this was the most helpful video I have watched in a while. thank you bro!
That’s an excellent wheel base, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it and over time you’ll develop the chips to be able to drift real cars decently too, should the opportunity arise 👏🏻
@Kame Trick I try to understand how the basics works for a half year now and only after watching this video I was to able to finaly make some real progress! Thank you so much man! I realy appreciate your help and wish you the best! ❤️✌️
This video made me realize I know a lot more about drifting then I thought I did
This helped me so much. Understanding how throttle affects the snapback on corner exit. Slowly getting out of the throttle as the car re-centers is the key. I also have found that a high FFB on assetto is needed for the wheel to self rotate. Then, adjusting FFB in the wheel driver for overall force. Also "slip effects" in AC settings seems to have an impact along with keeping FFB tweaks in CSP off. (I'm on a Thrustmaster TX)
Yes.. Thank you for the flick-trick on g29s. I noticed people do it but thought it was just bc of the car or its setup. This and lut really take things on another level.
lostie-case I’m glad to hear these tips are helping you out!🙌🏻
This video taught me more about drifting than the hours of videos I’ve looked up already
That’s what I like to hear! I’m actually in the process of editing an IRL version of this video:)
This was very well explained, now all I need is the same but for FWD.
I am able to feel the throttle/steering wheel relationship IRL, but putting it in words and laying out the exact technique is proving to be difficult.
It certainly doesn't help that all drifting content is either about RWD or handbrake sliding
Most people I know have FWD cars when they first start driving, even back in the day when affordable RWD was more common. I did my first Ebrake slides in a friends Honda Prelude and Acura Integra so I know the feeling😅
In a nutshell, the entry phase of any technique that has to do with foot brake or hand brake works the exact same...but as soon as a step involves accelerating it’s no longer relevant to FWD cars. FF’s can only enter fast, go sideways, and gradually lose speed until they can’t stay sideways, where RWD can get sideways and stay that way indefinitely due to the drivetrain layout.
I may make an “FWD sliding techniques” type video at some point in 2022, but until then, good luck with your driving!
ty for explaining the logitech gear drive thing. I was thinking transitioning was just too hard for me but ur explanation makes a lot of sense
why does this guy not have more subs he's a legend especially for doing both
Thank you 🙏🏻 I wish I was posting more often but have had a bunch of health issues to overcome this year ❤️🩹 I still post when I can, though. Check out this IRL series which all applies to sim but is marketed toward the IRL drivers a bit more: th-cam.com/video/RtCfqohMhl0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1IoTRPG6gSKlIEzz
Currently have 3 vids in that series and may do more in the future
This video is amazing! Not just the bone dry basics of drifting mechanics but a true tutorial to help everyone starting out! Thank you!
This is the sort of comment I made this video for, thank you for saying so, it tells me I’m doing the right things! 🙌🏻
Hey man, I'm 2 years late to this conversation but I had to say thank you. I have a Logitech g920 cheap setup and I kept spinning out with this particular car pack. I went in the sim and loaded the same track as you with same car while watching your video at the same time and because of your tips and tricks I was able to do 2 full almost perfect lap without spinning out. I have never drifted IRL and also never used another type of wheel so now I understand why I have to throw the wheel unlike you! Thanks again mate. Can't wait to get a better wheel though X)
It’s never too late to take the next step in building your drift skills! I’m glad you gave this video a chance, looking back on it now I might ramble way too much in it, but the info’s rock solid😅 Check out my new stuff for more drift technique breakdowns!
I have a G27, getting a LUT file and messing with other ffb settings got it pretty good in AC. As a learner it improved my ability to link "easier" tracks without many issues + some others after more practice. And if I manage the pedals just a little bit it self steers pretty strong and good. I have discovered that tapping of the brakes technique while experimenting by myself, it gave the wheel some extra time to rotate, I was pretty much letting go of it everywhere. But I have found that part of it depended on the car pack/car used, although it might just be me still learning and I know nothing about suspension tuning etc..
I just got a g29 yesterday and started learning how to drift in assetto. My biggest problem is the end of my drifts tend to twist when I try straightening it at the end of the corner. Thank god I have this video to learn and understand more about drifting.
Ah yeah, that’s an often overlooked element (in my vid too a bit 🤦🏻♂️) but basically you’re balancing the spinning tires with countersteer, and as you let off throttle you reduce countersteer. If throttle comes off too fast, the car will grip up and sort of shoot in the direction of your steering. If steering comes off too fast, the car may pick up angle and “park” sideways or spin.
Just getting into drifting in assetto and ordered my g29 so i am so excited been using the hori wheel and its so bad drifting with only 90 degrees but g29 gets here in 2 days thank you for all the tutorials
@Brandon Bernard Yep! It was worth it specially for Sim racing the only problem I had was with my brake pedal but I switched the spring and fixed it I believe it was just a mistake with mines but overall it's awesome and I recommend it specially if your going to Sim race it's also very easy to set up
