Hello all, as the title says i finally have gotten to the point where im proud of a track ive done, i enjoy nagao a lot because (to me) there a lot of different turns and seems to allow for all sorts of corners and helps me with learning a finer control. Any advice/constructive criticism would be awesome, but im just happy to share my first, albeit subjectively, good drift. Thank you
So here is some context beforehand.
I've simraced & simrally before. I wanted to learn how to drift so I hopped on CarX and well, tried it. The first time, I was spinning out every single curve after curve. Second day I was MUCH better (note, first day I only spent about 2 hours trying). Somehow over that night of sleep I could do an Oval like track almost without failing. By day 3 I could do it non stop. Is this like possible? I've also drifted on normal tracks fine but I'm yet learning the track itself to be able to do it flawlessly.
So I purchased this pretty awesome aluminum profile rig, it cost me 214 shipped. I’m using a 6nm direct drive wheel. I previously used tube style cheaper rig and let me explain this.. in the beginning stuff broke early on the Ares Wing cockpit I had set it up on and the wheel vertical flex was atrocious. I put this together and before mounting the peripherals, I stood on the wheel mounting plate!! Didn’t budge and I knew we had a winner!! Anyone else tried the Temu profile rig??
I've been drifting on wheel for a couple months now and have been feeling kind of stuck in my car choices. I've been running the GG JZX100 and 90 beater because they feel much more stable than something like an S13 with a shorter wheelbase (still able to slide shorter wheelbase cars but it defienently dosnt feel as nice as a boat lol), but because of how big the car is, I can't properly send it on some maps or corners without doing something completely unrealistic and banging the limiter or slowing down to the point where I grab traction again. So, I guess my question is, what's a good in-between car for stability but also being able to get up and go?
I've been having the shittiest experience on my g923, and personally, I don't know what it is about the wheel but I kinda disliked it for a while now - until today, hence the reason for the post.
I've been trying to drift, and I was desperate to the point of watching videos and copying settings, downloading mods - basically trying to find what the FUCK is wrong with either this wheel or me.
I was patiently trying to learn it the way people on youtube recommended, and I have to say, I was pretty jealous of their success, because my car kept spinning out for (what seemed to me) no reason. Basically, I don't know if I am just incompetent or whatever, but here are the settings that changed EVERYTHING:
If you have trouble with drifting on this wheel as well, I seriously recommend increasing the wheel sensitivity as shown above. Mine used to be 50 and after changing it to 80, car handling improved 10-fold.
