First drift/FF drift...

[RallyGT]

FF drifting

i never use the E brake any more, or the foot brake. i just engine brake....then throw the b!tch sideways

[DoriFuta-]

longest FF Drft?

What is everyones longes FF Drift and is it possible to do a Drift Donut and hold it?

[initialdrift]

The reason your FF did that is because of too much oversteer, and countersteer. By the way, I don't see why people drive FFs. Initiating a drift with an FF causes too much torque in the rear wheels, meaning you won't be able to hold on for long. Is everyone with a front wheel drive car praying that there will be some sort of FF only competition so they won't get whipped by an FR? Don't blow a gasket and say I'm some sort Initial D poser, because I'm not. It's the truth.

FF Drifting

Well till we all strike it rich and we can afford an FR and modifie it then i guess i will just continue to drift in an FF.
..............Poser !! LoL j\k

You are a poser, Nock it off. If you dont have anything to add about his conversation then stay out of it.

Also please go back to basic car physics school before adding anything else mister "drifting is understeering for proof watch initial D"

FF drifting

i was going 50 once, then i took a 90 degree corner.....i went sidways for like 30-40 feet....then i countersteered, and did a full donut...it was pretty cool...

I like to mess with mod's... If you slip up I'll catch it!

I don't think it's possible to do more than one revolution with a donut in a FF unless you're in reverse with the E-on.

RallyGT - you engine brake and THEN give steering input? Are you trying to plow the front the tires and understeer?

A good quick left-foot tap will be enough to transfer some weigh forward to get maximum front grip. Turn in, then when the roll builds to a head pulling the E-brake to knock the rears loose will get you hella-sideways. There's a few ways that you can go from here, my favorite is to left foot brake while gunning it with only a little bit of counter steer, essentially like you do with a FR.

Stiff rear suspension or a removed front sway bar will help add some oversteer as well.

Yeah when i use foot braking manuvers i too have to apply the breaks before i turn it, or else its too easy to lock them and plow.

When i was learning it i would come up fast. and go "tap tap tap" to kill my speed about 20 miles an hour, then turn it, timming was hard to get down but once i got a hang of it, then it was like i was doing it nearly at the same time. It was still in order just much faster. "tap turn counter steer"

[mranlet]

I still go "tap tap tap", just not on the track (most of the time )

wtf?? how is that possible? in reverse with the E brake on? your car wouldnt go anywhere!

and the guy that sed fwd is all wheel drive. its not. you were right with awd but not fwd. fwd is front wheel drive. you might have been looking for 4wd... a term used with trucks most of the time.

[DoriFuta-]

Ty

Yea, that was me that said bout the FWD and AWD, i ment to put the 4 but messed up.
Thanks for clearifing.

[chrisfromda909]

hey no problem

anyone here ever drifted an automatic fwd?

[DoriFuta-]

VW AutoMatic

Funny you should mention Automatic DRFTing...

I have Drifted my younger sister's VW Golf (FF & AutoMatic), can't really say that it was much of a challenge since the *Censored**Censored**Censored* end slides all over the place without really trying to hard to get it sideways.

[chrisfromda909]

hah cool. i drifted an auto fwd wagon. much fun.

DRFTing For VW

I think my all time dream would to run Rally races for VolksWagen, Proffesional Rally, (Turns into Dr. Frink From the Simpsons) with the Mud and the Dirt and the Asfult and the Danger of Flipping the car over a Cliff...Hoaven Blaven...!!
