nurburgerking is way too long for drifting purposes, although i would like to see someone drift the carousel

 

My track is the grand vally sumthin with the blue bridge

I tried the NSX-R forgot to set the LSD settings though so ill try that later.

The car is good but it feels slow. But it drifts well, not too much n not too little.

 

Ok so what do I need to fiddle around with to make the NSX drift on a long straight line or just drift very very long? or am i doing something wrong?

Is it me or does the NSX understears a lot?

 

I forgot to take off the assists too and I keep stalling. I did get side ways but stopped. I took them off and even though I didn't stall any more I didn't get side ways to much.

+1 on the long drifts.

 

the NSX is an easy car to practice with even on the most basic settings. you can try adding a stage 1 NA if you feel you don't have enough power to maintain the drift, but i think working with a car with less power is good practice. that way it focuses more on technique than just power-over drifting, and usually with high powered (like the D1 cars) you'll just end up spinning out everywhere if you are still learning

this guide from gtp should help you set up the LSD settings
i. Initial Torque:

Quoting rsmithdrift, “This setting determines the responsiveness of the LSD's application. A higher setting means more responsive and tighter at rest. (at rest meaning when no accel or decel force is being applied)”

Effects:
A higher setting (relative to a prior one) will make the car less maneuverable when no slip or wheelspin is present and increases understeer. Conversely, during a drift a higher setting allows more throttle control over the vehicle’s rotation.
A high setting reduces the influence of the LSD Decel and Accel settings on the vehicle’s behaviour.
Recommendations:
A moderate setting of 10 to 20 is not uncommon and normally works quite well. I have gone as high as 30 or 35 on cars that are extremely loose handling [ie. Amuse S2000 Street Version] - but I reserve such a setting a setting for rare circumstances.


ii. Limited-slip Acceleration:

Effects:
A high setting allows for drifts to be controlled more easily by the throttle. During a drift the rear of the car should feel a little bit more solid, or connected [that's the best I can describe it]. But when no slip is present the car may take on a tendency to understeer.
Too high of a setting may make the car quite prone to spinning once slip is initiated when the gas is applied heavily. It may also make it difficult to exit a corner without the rear end trying to snake on you (note: different than snapback)
Drifts may be cut short by higher settings if the car does not have the power essential for spinning both tires at its current drift angle. High powered cars will likely not notice this difficulty
A lower setting takes some throttle control away from the drift. The car will drift towards the outside of the track a little more. While no slip is present there is less tendency for the car to understeer.
A setting that is too low permits the outside tire to regain grip while you roast the inside rear tire. This leads to those pesky ‘super-stalling drifts’ (particularly on hairpins).
Recommendations:
While drifting you want both rear wheels to be spinning. A proper accel setting will accomplish this during the drift, but you should also tweak it to find a balance that lets you exit corners effectively. A setting that is too tight (large number) might lock while you’re looking to drive out of the corner – you might start weaving to try and get the back end in line. Conversely, a low setting may leave you stranded at the corner exit spinning one tire and doing nothing with the other.

A balanced setting will be determined by considering you tire choice, power, and initial torque settings. Settings ranging from 20 to 45 or so are not uncommon. As of just recently I’ve been gravitating slightly more towards values in the mid to high 30’s for cars in the 275-350hp range on N2’s.


iii. Limited-slip Decel:

Effects:
A lower setting allows a greater speed differential between left and right tires during engine braking & deceleration. This makes for a more maneuverable car and a decrease in understeer at corner entry.
A higher setting does exactly the inverse.
A setting that is too high will create excessive understeer at corner entry and seems to contribute to snapback exiting a drift.
Recommendations:
Low settings from 5 to 20 (rarely higher than 30) are the most useful for drifters. Long graceful corner entries become possible and it makes initiating drift by either the lift-off or braking technique much easier.

 

I havent played BG in a week and a half. Played it today and I suck. Im back in the 20's. =`(

though I am addicted to GT4 again like in middle school with GT3 haha.

Can anyone make the new mustang gt drift? im having a hard time just to get it to go side ways, even with a crap load of power.

 

i think the problem with the mustang was that it was low revving and high power output.
here's a hint i just messed around with: ignore the redline

muscle dorifto


sideway action with sideway camera


some power over


more power over


drft

 

DUDE! what are your settings!?

 

setting: become one with the car

 

Hahaha. how many times have i heard that already

u suck! but thnks for showing me prof that it can be done.
