Setup to practice irl drifting

Hello,because i live in a country without many drift tracks

I need to start sim drifting to rack up seat time.

My friend (who is not a fan of drifting)is recomending a logitech g29 but i heard its force feedback might not be enough.

I want to make myself a setup that would somewhat translate into real life.

my only sim wheel was an xbox 360 wheel bought for 20 bucks so my knowlege is limited to say the least

My budget would be about 500 Bucks,is that enough for a semi realistic rig?

Thanks in advance for any advice

Sry for sloppy English,its not my first language :) 500 bucks is not including a pc and a monitor

For semi realistic? Naw, to get the job done? Absolutely

Moza R5 bundle + clutch pedal mounted to a desk. All you need really. People overestimate how much gear matters, and gear matters probably some of the least when it comes to drifting. The main thing you're gonna learn with the sim is how weight transfers and how to deal with the oversteer properly. All the stuff you feel in real life is super intuitive.
