do you use the reverse button?

why_spyder · **Posted:** Fri Apr 17, 2009 5:33 pm

I don't, just gas and handbrake.

nice, it'll take me awhile to figure out how to do it. i thought you had to reverse to keep the momentum going when moving backwards.

No regular brakes?

why_spyder · **Posted:** Fri Apr 17, 2009 8:50 pm

Nope. Basically start with a feint drift but pull & hold the handbrake to make the rear come full circle. Once the car has came about 75% all the way around, hit the gas and countersteer (opposite of the way you want the car to turn) and let the front come around.

okayplayercom02 - A while back I had went looking for your 360 video of the FC and found that your account no longer existed on YouTube...

Did you have too many issue with YouTube or was it because of another personal decision?

haha yea i had to shut that account down.
had alot of people requesting for setups for the cars...which was fine and i gladly gave the settings away.
but people came back telling me that the settings sucks and that they still couldnt drift etc etc
had that happen on one too many occasions so I got fed up and just shut down the account.
too bad i forgot to save the vids on my pc...

So you forgot to tell the people they need to know how to drift before they try out your settings in the first place? lol. It"s sad to hear that people don't realize that car settings need to be personalized (to an extent) in order to work to their full potential...

Any word on when you might be able to get a PS2 and game goin' again?

haha thats true
I guess people think there's an "ultimate setting" where you can drift without any effort.
but they don't realize practice and skill are more important than the settings

and for the ps2 i doubt i'll be getting a hold of that for a long time
just making enough to make ends meet at the moment...sucks being broke lol

btw i bet that felt real good when you pulled that 360 and drifted through the whole corner

I understand about makin' ends meet, just keep your chin up and your eyes on the future.

And yes, it did feel good pulling that off - I almost dropped the control when my eye's got big and my jaw fell to the floor...

I think what made it more epic is you JUUUUSSST stay off the inside wall as you drift the turn..... epic , one of those moment's were you jump up and down in your chair going "gah jesus help me , omfg make it gah pleez " whilst also making your face go red ,gritting your teeth and for some reason you try and countersteer by twisting the controller like it's a wheel

i can pull off 360 in the test course only but not continue drifting after wards. lose all speed, and i'm not that skilled so i need time to prepare while approaching corners. It seems more like i'm trying to spin around and contine by doing donuts.

driftoner · **Posted:** Thu May 07, 2009 1:19 pm

test track is great to practice everything, at AE86_180SX's house i landed a 360 with a sunny truck and a DFP on the test track, using a wheel is suprisingly easier lol, but for some reason the DFP is just extemely waaay too hard to actually drift a touge with.

1st time i went back to playing this game for awhile and I landed a 360 in an actual conquest race. damn rival on Zao kept bumping me and i ending up spinning like Takumi in the gume tape death match episode. still lost the race since my SP drained and he was too far away to catch up.
