Nice video, ur a hell of a drifter. But how? as far as i go it's not even possible to drift in GT5p, is it easier to dirft with G25 then with DFGT?
thanks for the compliment. i started drifting gt5p with a DFP when my pedals failed for the last time i dug deep into my pockets for the G25. It is basically the same. Not sure why but my G25 felt a lot smoother than my ORIGNAL GT4 DFP. But the concept/idea is exactly the same. I am not new to drifting at all, just takes time to adapt the concepts to the in-game physics. Besides getting comfortable Throwing the wheel around, the biggest and most important thing to learn is THROTTLE Control. I see many video's of people mashing the GAS at Wide-open throttle bouncing off the rev-limiter. In under-powered cars this is usually necessary, but in higher HP cars especially the Blitz or Amuse s2000 (my favorites so far) throttle control is key to keeping the balance of the car and maintaining certain angle/momentum.
You know you are getting better when you understand WHY you lost, or messed up the drift. I'm in no way perfect, but i KNOW when i spin it's because i didn't counter-steer enough, or i gave TOO much throttle. And when i straighten out, it's because i didn't give ENOUGH throttle, or Too much counter-steer.
You just need to adapt your inputs to the specific car you are using and the certain course/turn you are on.
For example On Eidger normal there is a big difference in the reaction/inputs for the car to drift DOWN the connecting S-turns, than if you were doing REVERSE and drifting UP the connecting s-turns.
Personally i got the main idea of Gt5p drifting using the Tunned Cappuccino on Eiger. i Prefer N3 tires now, but to start off try N1's or N2's. They slip a lot easier and they don't catch traction as quick. With less traction the weight transfer/snap-oversteer is LESS severe, and gives you a little bit more time to react.
Good luck and keep practicing. It's all about having fun.
