Can anyone tell me how to do full counter donuts and crazy eights? It's much easier in the real world. Currently I drive a 90 S-13 Coupe, and drift in real life. Also, (in GT4) how can I avoid the car from snapping in the other direction and losing too much speed while holding a long drift and transitioning?

thanks y'all
 
well, im not a drifter as such, but to control the car from snapping back, you have to gradually reduce counter steer and gas be very smooth, even touch the brake a little, but you have to be very smooth with steering. If you just lift off the gas and tap the brake with full countersteer (this is normally how i link drifts together in gt3), the car will just snap around.

So smoothness is the key.

As for your doughnuts and figure 8's i have no idea :dunce:

Welcome to the forums,

Please take the time to search for your answers before posting. These couple topics were incredibly popular for the first week after the NTSC release. They have been covered in about 20 other threads already.

Quick answers:
Most of the cars ingame cannot do donuts.
If your cars whips in the other direction exitting a drift, its because you had too much countersteer. Make your stering and throttle smooth, and only countersteer as much as necessary, no more.

If you want a longer answer, use the search button. But I'm not about to write an essay in reply and open this can of worms up again. It's been done to death.

edit: if you really are intent upon discussing this topic, here's a thread to do it in. Even if not to post, give the thread a look, it will answer a few questions.
