This is the only form of drifting I've perfected.

Its where you "Hit the gutter and Rip a wheel off":D

Rear wheels - a good place for beginners to start

Front left - more advanced

Front right - maximum street cred!!

Bonus points for ripping a wheel off and still completing the next corner!

lmao @ MIKGTR. thas funny shit man, i see where your coming from, it's easy to do....

most people seem to power slide from mid corner on... this is a good place to start, as you get better and better, you can do it earlier in the corner, then finally, as they do in Japan, and as Denzo does, do it well before the corner, then carry it into even the next corner....

all takes practice

how about the mid-corner drift into over correcting the drift, into over correcting the over correction into tailfish down the road. looks good except for the facts that your shitting yourself the whole time

Go the whole way and start out drifting in front of big crowds. One of my drifts went astray and the crowd watched as my intercooler wrestled with the kerb....no prizes for guessing who won.

fark you guys must be experts

i've only ever tried in a gem and a vl, both raining, both locked diffs, both times got chocolate cake all down my pants...

what i find the very hardest in drift is keeping a straight line, while going diagonally forwards, sideways...fark, i just can't get it, but once i held the gem just like....this.........fark!.........all the way through a set of lights...kinda...

the vl was a shyteload of fun around two-lane roundabouts...hold the steering, control speed and direction with the throttle...never been in a car that flexed so much, though. disconcerting, that.

I have a video on my computer of that Kazuhiro Tanaka maniac...dead set LUNATIC, and he's drifting into corners, all the way thru until halfway down the next straight.... drives that red s15... but they seem to pump the clutch on corners and wheely it up.....i figure thats how they keep it sideways......

OH, and the comentators literally blow their load everytime they say TANAKA (OHH TANAKA OH MY GOD..only in japanese), quite maniacle.....but kool

i practise FWD drifting with the handbrake on the local roundabouts in the rain....rather funny.....no torque drifting is quite... slippeery
