BUT, the problem is I have no way to capture it. So, would anyone here be willing to help me on this? I can transfer the replay file to my computer with the X-Port and send it to you in an e-mail. Let me know if anyone wants to do this. Thanks! :dopey:

I can but first , I need to make sure my Sharkport USB works.
 
Hmm...ok. Well you understand the importance of feinting. and that's very good. The challenge is that you counter steer too early and in most cases too much so your angle isn't where it could be. Try not to move the steering wheel so much when countersteering. You should be putting smaller, smoother inputs. That will also give your drifts more stability.

Honestly it was pretty good, just check that countersteer! :)
 
Thanks for the advice. I'm still kinda learning the setup on that car, it's definately a handful. :) I'm also using the DS2 Controller. I tried to learn with the wheel..... no go. 👎
 
FC Vid:

Hmm.....I see improvement. Better angles initially. However, you're CS is still really messing with you stability and longevity of your drifts.

Look at turn 1. You take a very good line. But your angle even at the apex isn't too substantial. Try to use more throttle modulation and less "sawing" of the steering wheel. This should help your stability.

P.S. That 180 is a "mild" hybrid I have with a RB motor and normal tires from a skyline. :)

The first video is my favorite. I think you did an excellent job! 👍 Swift must be extremly picky or jealous. :dunce: .
 
After watching that FC video, I think I may have put the wrong one up. Oh well. :yuck: Like I said before, when I try to "smooth out" my counter steering, I always spin out. I'm really used to drifting this way, and I think it's cool. :p

Hey, it's your show bud. But you'll have difficult if not impossible time getting better.

a good way to smooth out your drift is to setup for the corner, then when you initiate the drift, hold your steering in one place and use the throttle to control your angle/speed. if you try it like i have suggested, you will spin out, or run off the track alot, but you will learn better control over time. thats how i got smoother while i had my DS2. just learn to try and hold the steering, and change your angle/speed via throttle.
besides your c/s your drifts look very nice!
 
can you give the settings of that 180, caus I like the angle compared to the tyre smoke in someway. Although it might need improvements to others, it's all about the tyre smoke and keeping a long as possible drift to me:). Just like the results, I don't really analyse and didn't even notice the c/s. Can you give the setings with an explanation of how you can go into another drift so soon after you exited the one that goes thrue the bridge???? I really like it :) :) :) :) :) 👍
 
I'll post the settings tonight. The way I keep the drift going through the bridge is, while I have the rear end out to the left, I am countersteering left. When the rear catches grip, it swings the rear around to the right for the next corner. Sometimes it takes a "tap" of the brakes to get the rear to swing around.
