I thought it would be cool to make a thread where people can post their favorite turns so that people who are new to the game or are just looking for new turns to drift on can go try them out.

Actually it looks extremely showy in the replay. I have a replay of an S14 linking those turns, and it looks incredible. The turns you listed are too easy IMHO. Also, I'm talking about linking turns without swaying down a straight, like in your diagram.;)
 
here, this is probly one of the most dificult link drift lines in GT3 that can be done without need of high HP.
very technical cuz of the narrow track but its VERY rewarding if conquered. 6 TURN LINK BONUS!!!

You dont have to sway for that link. Thats what makes it look so good.. 90 degrees down the straight and snap with choku-dori to enter the corner...

Actually your wrong. I think you may have marked the wrong turns. Because I have just gone through the course, and to link the last two turns (that you have marked) without swaying is impossible. It's just too long of a straight. Just for reference, here is your diagram again:

Silvia check this out.. I was sort of wrong. It takes like 2 sways (but it doesn't feel like it).. but read on. After you exit the first link of the 2 corners you leave facing the left barricade. At point A (an obtuse corner) you do your first sway, this flips the car around (if you do all of it right its sort of a 180) and now you face the right barricade. You hold it until the 100m marker. Then its up to you when to recover and link the next corner. (I usually recover at the 50m marker) I think you could link it almost all the way to the links you posted. (Havent even tried it though) Good cars for this one here are the Supra or RX7. Its by no means something I can do all the time, but I have nailed it.

B is the recovery point.. between 25-100m markers.

Now that's what I'm talking about. I do that link all the time too. I was just trying to point out, that if we were talking about linking, in that respect (swaying included), I would have put:

Midfield - entire course
Apricot Hill - entire course
Seattle - entire course
SSR5 - entire course
Laguna Seca - entire course

I opted to only post links that are possible without swaying. ;)
 
I use the ebrake sometimes... Its not a crime, i dont use it on entrance at least like ff peices of ****.
