I'm looking for anything like a map of a track and its perfect line. I wanted to find a map with the best entry points and etc. I know it comes with the practice and i am getting the hang of it but a study map would be nice. DO anyone know where i can find maps like that?
 
Enter wide, clip the apex, exit wide.

Its quite hard to do any other line successfully. Is there a particular track you're struggling with?

its not any map im struggling with per-say. Im still learning and i though it was some maps with that info with it. I just have to learn the maps better.
 
In most cases the racing line is fine for drifting on track.
 
Who cares just make it look good and smooth and the line naturally come to you
 
The race line is almost exactly the same as the drift line. Use it for a reference point and go from there.
 
Maybe im the only one here that don´t believe in racing line for drifting, and think that the "racing line aid" more bother than helps while drifting....
 
if you're partway decent at driving/drifting, and you're countersteering consistently and smoothly, your front wheels should probably be travelling a path pretty similar to the racing line,

if you are gung-ho and using a ds3 and doing some brutalized mix mash of 4 wheel sliding and countersteer-rescue-efforts, trying to get some decent angle while pretending you are racing some one who is doing all the same things only better . . .then your ideal line might simply be "on the pavement 98% of the time"

if you're neither of those, the best place to start would probably be on some cufuh hawd tires at tsukuba in a room with like 10 people, try doing tandem with everyone untill you find a guy going your speed who can do the same lap 100% of the time, 100 laps in a row. Next, try to follow this dudes every move so closely that you look like this on the hairpins
