linking two lefts on the back end of Deep Forest immediately after the 2nd tunnel (kinda fugly looking as other IDM members will report)
linking first two turns of grand valley east reverse (last drift in my Centrifuge 3 vid)
linking the uphill left with the downhill right into the tunnel on El Capitan reverse
linking the long right followed by dual apex left on midfield reverse, with no pause between drifts
quadruple apex drift on Autumn Ring mini
drifting the long left on Apricot Hill
.....one of those, i'm unsure which was longer. But reading from the top down is how i would rate them in terms of difficulty.
To rate a drift based on how long you're smoking and slipping works.... but you can hold a low drift for a hell of a long time on mild corners and in my opinion doesnt give the whole picture.
now, someone tell me they've drifted turn 1 on high speed ring.
I've been goin at that just for the challenge for awhile now, without ever expecting to do it. I havent even come close yet.

Yeah, It kinda looks weird because you almost have to dirt drop and then you almost cut back across the kerbs on the exit.
It's kinda sketchy, but still fun due to the challenge of it.

i can drift most of trial mountain without gaining traction but the longest in an oversteer position is about 8 sec.

Apricot Hill Gigantesco Left Turn - Its not so much the length of the drift, but the angle I got on it, I did the whole damn turn at 90, only to mess it up at the end because of my adrenaline rush (from a videogame none-the-less). Seriously, I have it in a reply some where, I did the whole turn at 85-100 degrees (AWDs are great aren't they), then effed up my countersteer at the very end and went into the inner track dirt.
Certainly a n00b,

Well, I can drift from the really rough bumpy left-right transtition just past Kallenhard all the way around Miss-Hit-Miss in my Ruf RGT (N2/N1, 68 Kg's ballast 5 tics forward, no other mods) I'm not sure how long that is timewise, but it covers a large enough section of the track to really stand out in the maps.
Doing the Ring in Reverse I've managed to drift up the hill at the start of the back straightaway (the hill is Galgenkopf, the straight is Dottinger Hohe) and held the slide, not a huge angle, but smoking all the way to the top and then apexed the next two turns....it felt like the longest I've ever done....
I can keep the tires smoking on a good run from Hohe-Act all the way through Wipperman (leftright-right--right-leftright) but I have to fishtail it down the straight between Hohe-Act and the start of Wipperman to keep them smoking, so I count them as two drifts.
I bet if I hit it right I could drift the Karusell in one slide, only done about 3/4s of it though.
Oh...one of my challenges to myself every lap is to try and link this double right with a sand trap, it's just a part of Pflanzgarten 1, but it's the one where you come round a left down a real steep hill with a little left-right-left that you can go straight through, and then there is the right--right-left, with a big foreboding sand trap on the left side of the road, I've managed to link that in two cars, a Z06 (on N2/N1's, with the left rear dropping off briefly to keep it going) and the BMW 320i Touring car on R1's.
Sorry about the huge post, I love drifting the Nurb, and some of them are huuuuuuge drifts...
Oh, I don't know how long it is, but going in reverse, I've managed to drift from the T6 timer I think, and then switch back to the right and drift through Bergwerk...

The longest i've done was prolly on Grand Valley. Hard to explain what turn it is, but its a uphill left, down hill left, to a right and a right, and finally a left again before i finally stopped goin sideways and spinnin. Crapped my pants the whole time, and haven't been able to do it again, isn't that always the way?!

After about an hour of trying I manged to grind through Turn 4 at Tokyo. 
the dual left on deep forest, the 3-9 on suzuka east, the long left hairpin on Infineon Sports and the first two left before the uphill right, Tsukuba's last corner, the 270 at autumn ring and 2-7, the first two in Apricot hill, then the esses, then the long left, and the first two rights at motorland, some with a 99 n1 skyline or a 02 rx7 spiritrunning around 500 hp

Apricote hill the first corner and the 2 after that i linked all of them that corner is special because u are drifting while going striaght
Apricot hill, starting from the where the free run starts corners 1, 2, 3 (the short chicane), 4 onto the straight, snake down the straight, then holding the sweeping first corner into the 2nd, then the series of S bends, and losing it at the huge left turn onto the back straight... cant do the whole thing : S

j/k. I did the long bend at High Speed Ring. It was cool.

HAHA! I remember someone made a thread like this but for GT3.
Now, keep in mind, I don't normally drive Tsukuba, so this is pretty cool for me.
Ruf RGT, no mods, N2/N1 tires, the entire last turn of Tsukuba, almost made it to the finish line, then it snapped back and I spun across the start/finish line....
Man, seeing that dark blue 911 smoke it's way around that turn is bad ass.

You drifted all of Tsukuba "rickjames" ?
Hmm, seems odd because there's two straightaways
My longest drift would have to be The really big right turn (If you're on Normal) on Tokyo R246. It's pretty damn long, I'm not much of a drifter but I checked out someone's STi settings and can't seem to do it again.
((The right turn is pretty much a hairpin, but really wide.))

Chris CriswellHmm, seems odd because there's two straightaways
You could manji down the backstraight and feint into the long turn, carry extra angle on your exit over into the first straightaway and manji down that into the hairpin. But, that's quite hard...

You're talking about this section...? Grand Valley Speedway Corners 6-10
I'm not trying to be a hater. But the likelyhood of linking all those turns is pretty much zero. Coming off the first dual apex drift, you HAVE to cut speed because of the sharper exit angle. There's just not enough momentum to carry through another dual apex drift and then link that into the lefter before the tunnel.
