Anyways i have found this forum from doing a search on Google...i think :confused: i cant remember...anyways i tihnk it is great and all the videos on here...AWESOME! Anyways i just started drifting ast night...i found a setup on here somewhere and started out on when of the tracks. anyways i am using an RX7 FC...i like it i am not bad i guess for being a noob. i have 2 questions though: 1) how do you guys get your videos on the internet? 2) i can do the really looooong turns just i suck on those little tight u-turns. i always seem to sping out or cant seem to get it....any help there?

Hey Welcome to GTPlanet.net Enjoy your stay with us. :) Don't forget about using the search button. Many questions have been anwserd already. Search before you post. 👍

Now about your questions, there are many ways to get your video on to the internet. One way is to use a TV-Tuner, a digital camera. Those are the two best recommended ways to get it on to your computer.

About you’re drifting. I think your taking the wrong line, the line you should be taking is similar to the racing line. You also need to have more control over your throttle, wheel spin, and angle at all times. Try not going all out crazy but take your time, and practice practice practice. Will get you to where you want to be

Keep Drifting

a tv card would be cheaper than a camera... you can get something for under like 100 to put the vid onto your computer. then its up to you to find a host.
 
cool...maybe ill see if my local best buy has one. hmmm or something to ask for on christmas? i dunno ill figure something ot

anyways thanks

ok thanks guys....hmmm i never get any email notification of these 2 replies?...maybe i didnt check it..whatever...ill look at them..and yeah hairpins are my night mare right now
 
Don't worry, you'll get used to them. After you know how to take them, you will start thinking of a faster way to get through them..
 
unless ur going for a super long slide into a hairpin, like the one on apricot hill. the only real challenge is slowing down just enough and jumping into the turn sideways. practice practice practice... i dunno.. is it worth it now though, lol... are the physics for gt3 similar to gt4 enough to for practice in gt3 not to be a waste? Even if it is, its still fun. :)
 
well actually i am getting quite good IMO.....well i am good on those long turns and such...well i guess i am not as good as some people but i am pretty good for a begginer though. i have been practicing on mid feild (or is it med field) i dunno but i have been practicing on mid feild II and i have almost mastered every turn there....cept that little tight turn :indiff: ...anyways i was searching around on these forums and i found an awd lesson....so i pyshced to start trying awd soon...i think i am gunna go with one of the WRXs or a Lancer (i saw those were the cvars he used in the model)...i like them all....anyways thanks for your guys help it is really appreciated
