I'm probably gonna get shot for asking this, but what about e-braking to initiate?

E-brake is good if you come in fast. It makes a ton of smoke and is not a bad entry but it scrubs off a ton of speed so you have to come in really hot.

e-brake is good and I dont think it gets enough praise, you can do so much with it that it is invaluable. Like TtR said you can use it if you come in really fast cut into the corner and grab it for a second let go and nail the gas and it'll slide. OR say you try to feint the car but when you cut back in the car dosn't come around again grab it again. It's also useful for really long sweepers you can "tap" the e brake to give you a lil more angle without having to let off the throttle.

It's also good for reducing radius turns where you need to scrub off speed. Just clutch in and lift it for a second or 2, it will make smoke and continue the drift until you have scrubbed enough speed to get back into the throttle and finish the turn.

You guys are lucky you get to experience higher speed stuff, where I go I barely hit second before the first turn. Then again, I'm not boosted (yet).

lol. i think i would shoot myself if i had to drift an N/A again.

Once you go turbo, you wont go back. turbo is way too fun.

1/2 bridgeport T04R drift car FTW.

3rd gear roll on power over? yes please.

dont think i got it easy either(well i knda do) but i have to stay above 4k. Its pretty difficult on tight technical courses

i've been sliding my fd for about 2 years and with around 300hp and full suspension the thing slides so damn easy. like a push button to drift it. its never been easier to slide in a car. sequential turbos ftw.
