ok everyone....hear me out....handbrake drifting is way to easy to lose traction...try using braking drifts...if done correctly they look much more realistic....im putting together a drift movie with me and my friend (my friend does all of the FR drifts...i do all of the AWD car drifts) anyways...we may not be able to pull off these super drifts that you guys do using your handbrakes but we pull off drifts that seem more realistic and wait till yall see it....well i guess thats all for my first post....later guys...
 
Power oversteer, feint, Braking drift... those are the only ones I do. I NEVER use the E-Brake.

I am also making a video... but I don't know what song to use...

Think Cudaman would mind if I used the same song he did? (bleed)

Thanks to him, it's my favorite song.
 
Well, I guess he hasn't had a chance to watch to many of the videos. check them out man. You can tell that almost nobody uses the ebrake.
 
Watch professional drifters and see what they do. They don't do "hand-brake drifts", but they do use the hand-brake quite a bit. They use it to extend drifts. They use it to start drifts ealier on the straight with a higher angle. They use it especially often in twin drifting for quick corrections. If you aren't using it at all, you aren't using the car to it's full potential. And what do you mean by "more realistic" anyway?

You really should use the search button anyway. This has been discussed almost as many times as "Grip vs. Drift" and "FF-Sliding/Drifting."

What buggles me the most is, that some n00b, who has just joined GTP, thinks he's the only one who knows how to drift, and do it correctly... :odd: I mean, there's a reason that there IS a drift forum here.. (And thank Heavens for that. ;) )

I find that really really strange.....

ok dude...so all of the sudden im some n00b that thinks im the only one who can drift??? wtf is with that...just because i stated that i dont like handbrakes? gees i watched the drift bible for gran turismo and to tell u the truth i was dissapointed (not saying it was bad) just they used the chokudori tecnique...thus using the handbrake...i didnt think that was very impressive.....thx guys for the warm welcome....i really appreciated it :grumpy:
 
i think my buddy all wheel drift has a point...oh yeah im his FR buddy from his 1st post, besides hes not a n00b anyways...and the same with our team, we just drift different and im new to this site as well so hey everybody (drifting for 4yrs on GT,GT2,and GT3, so i ain't a n00b :P)

First off, "The Drift Bible" does not represent how everyone drifts, here at GTP... I was also quite dissapointed, in the aforementioned vid, but he put a lot of time and effort into creating it, and that deserves some respect....

Secondly, you expect a warm welcome, after you show up all of a sudden, and tell everyone they have been drifting wrong, and acusing everyone of overusing a technique, that very few people here, actually use.... You need to use your head, and think before you type..... This is not a good way to introduce yourself.....

we may not be able to pull off these super drifts that you guys do using your handbrakes

What are you talking about? What vids are you refering to?..... Listen, watch "Countersteer Zero", and "Monkey Factory" (in my sig).... Tell me what about it is unrealistic, and show me where you see me use the e-brake....

Well said.... The technique exists for a good reason... It is one of many drifting techniques, that further help the drifter achieve the desired result.... A good drifter uses all techniques, and knows when to implement them.....

Yes well.. At the time of posting, you had 4 posts in here, that makes you a n00b in my eyes.. Not that that HAS to be a bad thing, but if you'd spend some time browsing the Drifting forum (searh button anyone) you would've found that each and every way of obtaining a drift, or an a**drag for that matter, has been beaten to death with a stick. Twice. Then in your 4th post, you say that the correct way of drifting is not using the handbrake, and that they will look more realistic (why a drift obtained with the handbrake looks less realistic is beyond me btw.) and that's what people should use... So there...

That aside, Welcome to GTP All Wheel Drift Dude ;)
 
Welcome guys (All whell drifter and switch_dr1ft) alot of the drifters on this forum know how to drift and are very knowledgable on any drifting subject I'm sure you guys know how to drift (not that is the point). Everyone is trying to achieve the same goal to be better drifters..... don't take any of this to heart drifting is an important topic to all of us ;)

agreed :)
What he's trying to say is your just randomly guessing that everyone here uses handbrakes. It's not that you bagged on e-brake drifts but the fact that you think you're the best here or something. 💡

i like using the handbrake ^_^<^> for some reason
 
All Wheel Drift
alright...so im new...im not a noob to drifting....anyways...i just dont want any enemys here....truce?

There is no hard feelings, but what you need to realise is, for someone who thinks they are not a noob to drifting, you use some counterproductive techniques..... Look around, watch some vids, study real life drift techniques, and settings... This is how you become a great drifter.....

What I'm trying to say is, remember that there is always a better drifter out there.... Think before you type, and use the search button...

Do these things, and we will all get along, just fine.....

Yea he is right. If you watch professional drifters you will see that some of them use the hand-brake after they have initiated the drift. They won't jerk the handbrake up to turn their car, but you may see them pull up and then push dowon on the handbrake very swiftly a few times towards the end of the drift. This is used to adjust the angle or extend the length of the drift, maybe for exhibition purposes.
 
as soon as I get a video capture card....I'm so going to do a challenge. Though I'll porbably be owned! :ouch: :sly:
 
i just got a video capture card.....im making a movie....and well im not the best drifter....once the movie is done and posted...gimme some advice. not just from a drifters point of view but also from a movie editor point of view...
