Can someone take me under their wing?

I have been intrigued about learning how to drift in GT3 & GT4, however I am NEW to this type of racing. If anyone could send me a PM or email me at RUDebtFree at comcast dot net (Yes I on purposely spelled it out) I'd appreciate any pointers and guidance on how to set up a car and/or some helpful hints/tips!!! Thanks!!!

Thanks! I'll check them out later. I have been doing some searching on the net for drifting in Gran Turismo and have come across different sites with helpful settings and tutorials!

Thanks again!!!

suspension is THE biggest factor in drifting. make ur springs softer so that you can tranfer weight easier so that it'll upset the tires traction which equals drifting.

Re: Can someone take me under their wing?

my springs are stiffer than the dickens =D

but i think the best way to learn how to drift is not to listen to other people, lol, its true though becasue all everybody will give you is a bunch of different setups when you should just watch some drifting videos, see how tis done, and try to immitate that as best as you can by changing setups, like go to setups, put one thing all the way up, if it helps a little, maybe keep it but not all the way up just a litle, try that for just aboot every option there, thats how i did it, seems like a really long process but i did it in about 30 minutes, and once you do it, you can do that same thing, or something close to it for just abuot every car, just adjust certain things like if it has more or less power maybe switch a couple of the settings up or down.

=D

you also have ASM understeer on, which makes it easy to drift regardless of the suspension.
