While trying to drift (especially in U turns) I find that my car won't gas all the way through and like stop burning rubber in the middle of a gear and I'll just slow down so the rest of the turn I'm just dragging ass like a grandpa.

The thing is I'm using 500hp 1050kg car V8 and I've been messing around with suspension and LSD all day and even when it's 60 60 it's still struggles through U or sharp corners. When for example RX-7 flies by me full power not slowing down a mile and it has less HP and weight as much.

Is it a car that I'm using?
 
could be a settings issue, or you just need better technique. without seeing whats wrong i cant really offer input. are you using CH tires?
 
I'm using comfort soft. I'm really dumbfounded when RX 7s go sideways 60mph and I'm using Ferrari based Korean V8 that can't even finish a turn properly. I dunno mayybe its really me?..but I have a few other lower HP cars I can drift just fine like Corolla Levin and something like Silvia Dia's selection.
 
It seems you may have gear lag, see in what gear you're in when in happens & mess with it. Also I don't know if you do it, but use Manual, never drift on automatic. And use Comfort Mediums or Hards. It's proven that CM equals new street radials like the ones they use in real life professional drifting, CH equals worn street radials.
 
It sounds like you have traction control on,or skid force recovery on.Try all aids off and ABS at 1.Also the car may have a torque curve that drops at high revs.

That's what I think it is.. a torque curve or something I'm yet to mess around with transmission too much and gear ratios. But everything is off ofcourse,all assists and traction control too. it's hard to control the car with it bring do raw but it's still stick mid corner that's why I'm confused. I'll mess around with gears when I get home see it helps
