​@@mikayla_collie Really ever since i moved my s13 in the garage I've gotten a lot done. It was sitting in the driveway for about 3 years since i did the SR swap and haven't touched it when i dropped it in. That might just be me but i definetly think working in the garage is better than in the driveway. Once that car is running, I'm parking my Rx7 in the garage to work on a swap. Then once that's done i will work on my Rx7 Drift car. I have those cars outside haven't touched them 3-5 years. I don't have a shop so garage it is.

Maybe it's just me but learning to drift irl with a low hp car really teaches you some valuable information and saves so much money. Taking time to watch and learn from others can be very beneficial. Understanding when and why things go wrong before they happen can come from both personal experience but also studying clips from a variety of drivers at different skill levels.

Overall just keep practicing. stick to 1 car, learn it inside out, and get good with it. Learn the tracks, and follow faster and smoother drivers. Don't rely on the e-brake too much. Only use it if you absolutely have to, instead try and learn left-foot brake and throttle control/throttle steer. Also, try out touge servers or solo touge runs on mountain roads. You can learn things to apply to drifting and racing when doing either activity. they go hand in hand together. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, YOU ARE IN A SIM! push the cars over the limit, crash the cars, learn their limits, dont be afraid to tap other people in tandems, its part of the learning process. and finally, Have fun man. :)

And if you are in a lobby with randoms have the chat open (rest your cursor over the window to not make it disappear) and maybe inform the lobby that you are learning how to tandem and want to get some doors! If you don't chat or ignore the messages of others you might get the one or the other side eye if you crash too often, but most of us don't care.

one of the two most important things to keep in mind is firstly, keep those revs as high is possible, sometimes its better to keep it in a lower gear, or drop. Second is wheel control and understanding of how the car moves when you do different things to it but youre honestly doing a great job im impressed the rest is practice and time, itll become more natural

The amount of happiness that I got from seeing this upload was def worth it

very nice Garrett!! next step is learning how to left foot break to keep ur distance in tandems

I do highly recommend trying to use a car set that doesnt have as much angle. Closer to what you would get out of a real life car. The gravy garage cars are by far some of the most fun cars to drive, but the angle you can use to save yourself is a little unrealistic. Usually a street car pack like the WDT cars are really good. The feeling is very numb and they do require quite a bit of tuning to get them to feel right imo. but less angle to really make you be focused on steering/throttle inputs would really help with the transition from SIM to IRL. Great Progress so far man! Keep going! It all helps

To hold distance you leftifoor brake and try keep on the same line and if you need to catch them up you take a more shallow line. Make sure you brake bias is on 75-80% and 80 brake power then it will make the car a little more forgiving whilst driving

Shoutout to the rx8 coming with a 80% brake bias from the jump. Makes touge and sliding easy as shit irl.

U went from helping me learn how to Ollie in 2015-16 and now were both ripping touges and swinging in assetto.... funny how the world works, this made me so fucking happy garrett

as someone that does both sim and irl, main thing is dont worry so much about how you drive, skill is earned best through experience so dont be afraid to fail. The best drifters still fail it just takes time.

Gravygarage isn't as realistic as Death Wish Garage or WDTS, those cars have so much angle it hides your mistakes

Yeah definitely noticed that hahaha I’ve tried DWG and WDTS and it’s for sure more difficult but was more rewarding

As I learned drifting, once I got the basics and was basically at your skill level, I selected a car that I wanted to drive more often (I think it was the Tsujigiri Altezza) and went and bought myself the 90sGDSP Happogahara Touge. There is also a free version out there if you want to test it (it's just the middle part) and another mod of this touge which is not that good. The paid version is 100% worth the 5 bucks. Drifting on this track teaches you two essential things: the main thing is "Look where you want to go!" This touge is very narrow and when you look at a wall or a barrier before a tight corner, you WILL hit it. The second thing it teaches is handling very awkward corner sequences and angles. This track has all you can wish for: fast corners with some room to play with, super tight narrow ones, a series of winding roads on a hillside, a series of fast left-to right switches and so on. The Tsujigiri Hero cars that I learned with had like 600-700 HP with a lot of angle, so I would recommend to use something weaker like WDTS for the start. But you technically know how it works so you don't really need to sit around in them for forever. Maybe make sure to use them once in a while like I do and have fun with whatever cars you like most!

I recommend the VDC spec cars as soon as you can. Most other cars / packs have dampened effects & friendly “Chill” gearing. Like one gear for everything. But.. You’ll get better EVERY TIME you get on Have fun. 🎉

Also a beginner at sim drifting myself, but did an IRL drift event before picking up the sim. A big thing that's helped with getting better is learning to NOT rely on the e-brake for entry, at least until you're more confident. Get super comfortable with clutch kick entries and throttle control, then incorporate some left foot braking and more clutch kicking mid-drift to control speed and angle, before finally adding in the handbrake. I don't have a hydro e-brake in real life, so relying on it in sim drifting (especially early on) WILL create bad habits. Just my $0.02

Bro I love this type of videos ngl

Hey! I watched you drifting and I said. I wanna drift. So I hopped on assetto on my ps4 since I can’t on my pc since it broke recently. And started drifting. I’m new to drifting and I’m holding lines that I didn’t know I could do, thanks for making me do something I didn’t know I could do. You earned a sub😊 I know that YOU asked for tips but please give me some tips lollll

Should try the Klutch Kickers map, or just try tracks with actual zones to hit which makes it so you can actually see what your aiming for, it in turn makes you figure out how to control your angle/speed/entries and how to adjust.

clutch in as you start to transition and the wheel starts to countersteer itself, then once you get the proper angle/line grab the wheel, rev up the rpms, and dump the clutch. sounds a little complicated but it all happens in a second or two and once u get the hang of it it’s butter

even though u mess up if you keep going u keep learning and try different things thats how i learned sometimes u can learn that way.

Drifting been becoming one of my favorites things to do now too !! It’s so fun and it gets your adrenaline rush up 😁

Unfortunately, the best camera view for tandems is when you adjust the in car view to be center of the roof. In car view leaves too much room for error, and online hit boxes aren't the best

Wow I hope to drift like you one day!

If you feel like you are about to spin out, like in your first try for example, try clutch kicking off throttle when you have caught the wheel... The theory is that a momentary clutch kick allows the back wheels to grip since you cut power, something you usually would need handbrake/brakes, which would either extend or shorten the drift outside what you intended, or, more counter-steer, which you probably don´t have xDD

@thesprawl2361

Good tip for people starting out, that. Learning to give the car that little clutch kick it needs to....sort of... _notice_ your countersteering. It's like telling the car 'buddy, I'm countersteering here, pay attention.' Another one is the importance of left foot braking; if you're having trouble catching transitions you can instinctively learn to slightly slow them down, so you don't spin out when they're done at high speed in a high gear. You can use left-foot braking for so, so many things, but slowing transitions is something that's really useful for virtual drifters because we lack the g-forces that would be there in real life if we were transitiong in a drift. So when you start out don't be afraid of using a tiny touch of left foot braking to slow a transition if you can tell it's going to be a wild, snappy one. And the more left foot braking you use the more you'll understand how insanely useful it is, how much extra control it gives you. If you mainoly just use clutch and throttle - and a lot of people only use those two pedals when drifting - you're basically drifting with one arm tied behind your back.

@@AKYLE315 I keep my left foot over the brake pretty much all the time. But you don't have to use your left foot to brake. There are pro drifters and rally drivers who use their right foot for the brake and the left for the clutch. Seems much harder to me, but some people do it.

I started out with an SR20 in an S13 years ago when I first got into drifting would practice in empty parking lots and empty streets (I dont rec) then went to the closest track in my area Got the hang of it but I would say it is a little harder to learn the basics when you have more power than driver skill, I would spin out ALOT. Currently driving a stock KA s14, welded diff and angle kit with hydro and only drift on track. Alot of people come up to me and are surprised that its just a stock KA (140hp) with the way I drive it since I can link most the track consistently while holding angle and not spinning out. I guess the point of my comment is SEAT TIME, just like anything you gotta put in the time actually doing it first hand to understand it and get good at it. Sim racing does translate to real life driving at least with how realistic these games are. Enjoyed the vid btw one day ill build a sim setup myself since actual track days are expensive.

(First track) You really wanna e-brake that corner, but you don't need to. The e-brake does elongate your line but also slows you down a lot. In this case you were coming in at the right speed and you had the right line for that corner. Just let off the gas, no brakes, let it slide in position and then get back on it.

yoooo garrett you're killing it bro, yo but you're going to have hope on playground soon and when you do hit me up for real, aim Tryna drift with you. also drifting is kind of like skating. trying to drift is like doing a trick, then you put the line together. hit me up to drift on the sim bc my car aslo broken"crying"lol.

Two things you can do relating to the UI. You can have rear view mirror in the top center to see behind you, just like in real life. Second have the minimap at some corner where you can see the turns of the map as well as the players, especially nice when going from pit to track and not crash anyone.

consistent and smooth throttle helps in multiple ways but it mainly trickles and makes every other movement smooth and calm. except for the flicks and entries. the better you are with no handbrake the more control and understanding you have in the end. always be loose on the wheel and let the cars weight tell you what it wants to do.

Not sure if I'm too late but I certainly recommend a VR headset if you don't already have one, the depth perception you get in VR is an insane improvement over the monitor experience.

bro imma need ur help setting up my h3 i keep running into issues an shii...im just trynna get some seat time while my cars are down atm😭 also ur like an hour away from me too lol didn't know that till I saw ur vr driving vid😂

The biggest thing that so few drift videos emphasise is the importance of left foot braking; a really simple example for a beginner(not saying that's you - IDK your channel very well) is if you're having trouble catching transitions you can instinctively learn to slightly slow them down w/ the brake, so you don't spin out from too much momentum. You can use left-foot braking for so, so many things, but slowing transitions is something that's really useful for virtual drifters because we lack the g-forces that would be there in real life if we were transitioning in a drift. So when you start out don't be afraid of using a tiny touch of left foot braking to slow a transition if you can tell it's going to be a wild, snappy one. And the more left foot braking you use the more you'll understand how insanely useful it is, how much extra control it gives you. If you mainly just use clutch and throttle - and a lot of people only use those two pedals when drifting - you're basically drifting with one arm tied behind your back...w/ left foot braking you can force oversteer in really tight areas, you can control angle really, really precisely, you can initiate reverse entries even more easily than with a handbrake, it's crazily useful. Think of it like this: there's a particular angle that you car will take that's perfect for maintaining your drift. Every milisecond you're trying to find that angle, and it's constantly changing. With steering and throttle input you have a way of finding that angle pretty well. With the wheel and the throttle it's like you have a huge invisible hand that comes down from the sky and can move the car's angle. But if you only use throttle and wheel input the giant invisible hand only has two fingers, so it can only prod and push and flip the car in pretty basic ways. You can still have good control with just those two fingers, but when you add left foot braking you're giving that giant invisible hand a thumb, and now it can rotate the car in really precise ways. It's that big a deal.

I just got my setup like a month ago just barely have time to play it. But you’re def good , screwing up is part of it that’s why there are sims

When you’re carrying a lot of speed you need to be left foot braking into turns. Remember you can’t slow down without the brake so when you think you’re gonna go flying off the track, use your left foot to brake and slow the car down

Clutch kick, then pulling handbrake works good to initiate and arround corners, feather gas light/heavy

Youre pretty good Garrett

a tip is that car set ups are key too

a tip for transitions is to have a little throttle or at least not decelerating when transitioning, it upsets the car and makes you more likely to spin. if you do need to slow down when transitioning keep in mind that the weight is on the front tires when you let off or break so scrubbing off speed with the handbreak is easier and more predictable.

Over 1000 hours on Assetto Corsa. if you need any tips with drifting or a 1 on 1 lesson, lmk!

With tandems you control distance with angle. Shallow lines and small angle allow you to catch up. Big angle and wide lines allow you to slow down. Generally the chase car has less angle than the lead. You should practice drifting with small angle and big angle, fast and slow.

seat time, once everything clicks it's easy to enter the flow state the more time you spend. get a bunch of mod tracks try comp tracks and drifting touge and hillclimbs. also slow cars are great

Private server? What happened to the server you had with Booogie and Boon??

Online drifting....to counter over rotation decrease front tire width or increase rear tire width...or both.I think from memory AC only allows pressures, if so increase pressure in front shoes

Best thing that helped me is.never drop your throttle under 30% keep it smooth

What’s your neckFX ? I would like to give it a try (if you wouldn’t mind) it looks good

Should try getting a feel for pulling the handbrake and when you release keep the clutch in. Very usefull coming into a slow corner with speed. Just let the car 4 wheel drift to scrub speed. Also helps with not holding the handbrake, sometimes i pull and release the handbrake 4-5 times in the entrie to adjust distances

@joeyturner-ss2op

8 ай бұрын

pulling the handbrake that often is a bad habit in itself too brother.. you need to be left foot braking to adjust distance on entries instead of killing your momentum and destroying your handbrake

Everything was just fine with your drifting m!!! Just need seat time and drive with good people!! Consistency is key

I believe if you enable horizon lock your camera wont tilt so much to the side when the neck fx kick in

Try to get used to clutch kicking while on the throttle. It’s basically a better handbrake.

Learning to drift was a really big piss off for me. Learning throttle control took someone telling me not to red line the rpm meter. Feather it and slide

i’m not no pro but you do what i did and it made myself mad when i realized, the reason you sometimes stop kinda all of the sudden is bc you drop the power , try keep on the throttle jus a tad to keep it moving and spinning. aka throttle control

at 2:54 don't use handbrake, use left foot brake while applying gas, than when you are almost about to spin out clutch kick it and you'll be fine.

We need a foot cam 😂

the best thing anyone ever told me was to steer with my feet, and less with my hands. It sounds weird, but steer the car with the throttle. more throttle = more angle, and less = less obviously. This seems obvious, but when you actually apply it you'll notice how much the car actually self-steers. Also, try some low horsepower cars. somewhere between 1 and 2 hundred horsepower. My drift car IRL is a 100 hp miata, and i've felt it's made me a better driver then if I started on a 300 horsepower platform. It forces you to rely much more on momentum, speed and weight transfers opposed to only using the throttle to guide the car.

Hey man I saw in the video that you are doing great steering wise and maybe lay back on e-brake just a little bit but what you need to work on is simply THROTTLE control, I see you got that thing planted which is natural, just try to let up just a little

This is exactly why I’m kinda building my own sim rn to its max cuz out here car parts and jdm shit is so illegal it’s better just to sim it 😂

@4:17 corners like that try to go into it in 3rd, clutch kick, slam the gas then shift into 2nd and feather it

Your neck fx settings need some tweaking because it is skewing the screen right and left as you snap from one angle to the next. I promise this will help if you adjust the horizon on it.

It looks you’re relying on steering a bit too much, it’s all about the throttle control brotha keep it up!

Initiation looks fine I would say maybe switch it up a little more and use other techniques just to get familiar to those as well. Throttle looks good but you seem to keen o using your ebrake remeber, this is not touge nor rallye you are trying to be smooth so minimalising braking is priority most of the times. Learn driftlines and how to get them ether with bashing your head against it by just trying or try to do it on "paper" first so something like the one in 1:56 doesnt happen where you feel like you need a handbrake but you really don't. Your making great progress tho cant wait to see you ripping it on the track!

Hand break is your best friend

the neck fx lowkey gave me motion sickness but other than that fire

low revs is allways better, for the health of the car if ur irl and it can help you get longer drifts

As someone who also has a big fanatec DD (I have the DD2), how does the DOF reality motion rig hold up with flexion from high DD? I have been eyeing them for a while, but the reviews online all use significantly less powerful wheel bases and I worry a lot about flex.

tbh gg i dont use neck fx because that violent chucks tbh i use real head motion thats dialed in and easier to control amd practice makes perfecto

How do you make the camera to like go with the drift,is it a mod?

Would love to know your graphics settings

instead of holding your throttle at like halfways on the corner blip it so like up down up down kinda try that it seems to help me

I used assetto to learn sim drifting .I mainly play carx for drifting now tho ..if drift ce had better camera angles it would be a great drifter game ...throttle and brake control will help loads I learnt to just do small skids and controlling the car before full on drifting .I am on console tho 😂

damn, the seat position is like your 4.5ft with the wheel in your face, adjust the seat position in the settings and it will feel way nicer, and turn the neck angle down to almost flat, its not realistic, it took me years to get good enough to be consistent to follow and mimick peoples lines

Id start with.. Dont use gravygarage cars, theyre tooooo easy to drift, id start off with WDT's street pack, also, let the wheel do its work smooth, all you need to do is initiate the drift, throttle control and thats about it, just initiate, throttle control, less e-brake (rather clutch), and less wheel motion

how do i get my camera to move like that?

More throttle and more counter steer for longer curves.

can we get your game settings and your fantec settings?

lol i have a sim as well and i feel like im terrible at it so im to scared to get into a public lobby hahahahaha

hey, what monitor is that? it looks massive. thanks:)

on the third entry you come in to close on the inside i mean its fine if you full throttle out of it

Throw a VR on, it’s life changing.

Don't worry about assetto tooooo much. Get in the real cat. I can go to a use a track I know well like Grange and barely link 2 corners, but it's easy in a real car. Sign up for a beginner friendly event like Drift Central and get real seat time in asap.

Invest in better force feedback to feel when you need to adjust or make an input while drifting

work more on left foot braking to extend your drifts and avoid handbrake as much as possible, clutch kicks and throttle control over handbrake

waiting for you to link up with LZ

your own server is actually pretty easy to set up

in my experience i find it is way easier if you dont just slam the throttle trough the entire corner, try and only use like 50-70 percent throttle

Keep it in 2nd and hope for the best for rn

you need proper neckfx settings, these one you got there ain't so nice, I use one by HynesZ, would recommend you that one, he has video of neckfx setup. been using it already since he uploaded that video :D

damn this dof reality h3 i wishhhhh......

seat time. just keep simdrifting and learn from the mistakes u make. i recommend chelsea denofas how to drift series on youtube. helped me learn the basics.

Keep at it and try some low horsepower cars

Real life gives you more feedback and you have more control than sim but sim is a good practice
