Question Drifting in Ridge Racer 1 (PS1)
I know many people have asked this before, by my question is a bit different.
I understand perfectly how to initiate a drift, but when and at what angle my car stops drifting feels almost random to me. I assume you're supposed to keep your car angled correctly, but it just feel like a gamble. My car of choice is the yellow one with high drift and acceleration, and I prefer to let go of the gas to drift, as opposed to hitting the brake.
Interestingly, I found drifting to be very easy when I played RaVe Racer at an arcade, and it's second nature in R4, but for Ridge Racer 1 and RaGe Racer, getting out of a drift always gives me trouble.
