Welcome to the one and only, D-Max. One of oldest, yet freshest drift teams on GTP. We've been tearing up tracks since the good ol’ days of GT5!

Initially starting out as a group of likeminded guys, we grew to a competitive team, but now we’re back to our roots! It’s all about the skids and having a good time, we don’t do serious, we prefer to kick back and have some fun with anything RWD.



Each of our drivers bring a different style to the table, this keeps up fresh and means we're not the normal bunch of uniform guys. Whether its an MX5 being slung around in the wet or an S14 going backwards in a mad entry, you know it's D-Max.

People often ask me how to get onto D-Max, and whether there's rigorous try-outs. The truth is, we're relaxed with our recruitment, if we all like you and you're good at drifting, you'll have a good chance!

Of course :D
Nice, looking foward drifting with you 👍
 


Second time driving my 437bhp FC.

The set-up is a generic tune from GT5 and I seem to be getting a feel for the new physics. The suspension will surely need some tweaking.

The track is new to me but it feels awesome, people are complaining that drifting is impossible on GT6, this is to prove them wrong. The GT6 drift scene will be awesome when people start to get the hang of it.

Still having some issues with this Chaser! It just wont grip on the rear, the setup Is good I just think it has too much torque. Tonight ill remove the low RPM turbo and give it another shot :irked:
 
Thought id post this here too as I still consider myself as a part of Dmax.

Nice! Chaser is now setup like a boss, kept the turbo on in the end. Turns out it needed to be a lot softer to contain the torque :D
 
Just bought this absolute classic, and decided that it would be a great opportunity to make a picture set. I tried to get some motion shots and still shots. What do you all think of these? All criticism accepted!
