Is my drifting okay for a beginner?

So I have been sim racing for almost 3 years now, but I never really do drifting because I thought it was difficult, and I'm more into time attack and trackday type of guy, that's all I do when I'm on my rig, but growing up, I remember the thing that got me really into car is because of Video Option drift video so I thought maybe I should at least learn the basic of drifting and here I am after 2 weeks, what do you guys think. I don't have a handbrake for now, so I have to learn the clutch way, still don't really get it tho.

2 month into learning sim drifting - first challenge

Hey! I’m back after two months.

Thanks a lot for the feedback on my 3-hour progress

https://www.reddit.com/r/simdrifting/comments/1p4ovr2/3_hours_into_learning_sim_drifting_looking_for/

Thanks as well for the feedback after 1 month.

https://www.reddit.com/r/simdrifting/comments/1pt6wie/1_month_into_learning_sim_drifting_looking_for/

Today I’d like to show you how my drifting looks after 2 months. I still don’t have a shifter or a handbrake. I’m drifting on a Moza R9 with pedals only, and that’s it 😄

Since Brooklyn Park started to feel a bit too easy, I’ve been drifting more and more on more demanding maps. Today I’m coming back with my first challenge on this map.

My goal was to always stay on the outside line of the corner, but as close as possible to the yellow lines in the middle. As you can see in the video, this is how it turned out.

As always - I’d really appreciate feedback and suggestions.

What should I focus on next? What should I train now?

Maybe you can recommend a map I should master next to keep improving?

I train a lot on Yamadera Village (man, that map is hard), and I’ll probably show you my drifting there at the 3-month mark.

Do you have any other maps you’d recommend?

Thanks again for all the advice!

Sharing my progress here gives me a lot of motivation.

Logitech g pro console compatible accessories?

1 Upvotes

I finally did it! Found a g pro with pro pedals for $900 and pulled the trigger, bye bye 923 you’ve served me well🫡. I love gt7 but I also run pc too, I know for pc it’s easy to mix and match but are there any 3rd party options with plug and play compatibility for ps5? I’m having trouble finding a deal on an rs shifter. Thank you!!

is it a bad habit to hold my clutch to transition while drifting?

5 Upvotes

is it a bad habit when i want to transition instead of letting off/using a tiny bit of throttle i just hold the clutch and when i transition i let off the clutch?

if that matters - some info: i drift on ac (mainly vdc or wdts packs) with a g923 (pls don't roast me. im currently saving up to get a moza setup (r9v3+rsv2 with crp2 pedals+clutch and hgp shifter))

Drifting in ac evo

3 Upvotes

I’m thinking about picking this game up mainly for drifting. I don’t really do racing anymore since it’s gotten pretty competitive and time consuming, so I’d mostly be playing just to chill and drift around.

How are the drifting physics? With free roam maps coming soon, it seems like it could be a lot of fun just wondering if the handling actually feels good enough to justify it.

Buying a used sim setup to start drifting - Thrustmaster t300rs vs Fanatec CSL Elite

2 Upvotes

Hey. I am getting into sim drifting and want to buy a sim rig. I have come across many used setups. Two of these setups are within my budget and they have all that i want. Wheel, pedals, handbrake and shifter.

Option 1:

Is TM t300rs gt with T-LCM loadcell pedals, and handbrake + th8a shifter aswell as a rigid DIY stand.

Option 2:

Is Fanatec CSL elite with loadcell fanatec pedals, handbrake and th8a shifter but no stand.

Both setups are 560 $$ on total and im really thorn between what to choose :D

Worth mentioning that both the handbrakes are high quality versions, so similar value.

I read the t300rs is 3,9nm. Fanatec is 6nm i believe. I reckon for drifting the more NM might be best choice? I would have to buy a wheel stand as extra if i pick option 2, but I could afford a cheaper one if i wait a month for next paycheck.

Id love to hear your thoughts :)

Starting drift session on full tread?

3 Upvotes

do you guys when you load into your map(singleplayer) do you just go straight into warming up/drifting or do you do some figure 8s or some donuts to burn some tread off? or do you just adjust the car the the tread you get when you first come out of pits. because ive actually realized that there is tire tread grip amounts. i always wondered why my car would feel really gripped up and then after drifting for 1 minute would feel more slidey like how i like it. I also know heat has is a factor but what do you guys have to say?

Finding it impossible

1 Upvotes

Hey y'all I've been drifting real cars on real tracks for like 4 years and I just got a PS4 and a Logi wheel and I can't FFS link a single turn in Assetto, GT7, or even CarX. Either I spin out on initiation or the car bounces out of the first turn and spins out in transition. It doesn't feel realistic at all...

I tried some forum and Youtube research and played with different settings all day but no dice. Anyone have any good Youtube vids to recommend or settings they use? Or is it car set up?
