just something out of random since it feels like more ppl are using wheels here now.

you have to keep your right hand on the shifter or somewhere else.

course: Akagi, uphill/downhill(seperate times you can do)

TA cuz it's hard to create angle without crashing without a lot of 2 handed countersteer

car: no limit

1 handed steering justs "smooths" out the steering, which if used correctly, allows the tires to load and unload properly, ive tried it on hakone, works good, Nikko is hell tho :D

I tend to not take either hand off the wheel and keep them at 9 and 3 position unless i countersteer and even then i try to not countersteer too much. i get it back lined up at 9 and 3 when i see my exit, if you hold it out for just a fraction of a second too long you will lose control. for hairpins if i am sleepy or just lazy which happens a lot i just left foot brake or grip, go for a late apex, turn in from the outside and try to get to the inside as you exit, this is pretty much the only way to grip a hairpin with an FF for the best times, as far as drifting goes one handed is pretty pointless unless its AWD, in the rain, snow or dirt.

i managed 4:21 with 20 wall hits and getting my car stuck once. which I guess is decent for 2 runs and i actualy tried to drift.

car used SA22C. I'll have to check my stats but i'm pretty sure it was around 900kg and 215ps

it is possible to drift with 1 hand if you go god hand style, you just have to let go of the wheel a lot and reposition quickly(i crash a lot when i try). if you go gume tape death match style, it's pretty hard to drift with any angle.

Now's the time to turn the tide
Now's the time to fight
Let us not go gently
To the endless winter night
Now's the time to make the time
While hope is still in sight
Let us not go gently
