humm....

you could of at least got the tail loose no??

Ah well.

The tail was loose...just got new tires and it was dry
Maybe i'll try a little harder next time

Rain would help you greatly and give your tires an easier time.

Rain does wonders, my bro can get all tires spining in his quattro A4 2.8. It was sweet... he describes it "like ice"

A for effort, but understeer is a bitch.
if you excecute the manuver properly, u can kick the rear end around WITHOUT the handbrake.
wet ground is cheating, but i give u props.

DOES ANYONE ELSE HERE KNOW ABOUT THE 3-2 DOWNSHIFT?!?!?!?
it is vital for good drifts and nice turns.
keep up the good work, and keep filming your progress.

my advise: when u work on moves like that, dont stop after a few tries, work through any mistakes till u hit it right every time.

"then you get to take home ALL the girls. . ."

I do that all the time....I love the sound when you rev match perfect and you get that like back sputter, not like loss of power, but that popping, SO awesome..

That's that "PHAthaathaaathaaathaathaa" noise that lasts up to a second, right?

boost, to REALLY get the tail out, turn to one side HARD, and then quickly turn to the other side and keep the wheel turned and stomp on the gas once you feel the back coming loose to keep the traction low on the rear wheels. That's called a feint drift. A lot easier to to do and probably not as hard on your driveline as shifting would be. You need an LSD to really do it well, otherwise your inside tire will spin like crazy, and the outside wont burn out at all.
What youre doing is creating a sudden momentum shift to one side with the pivot point in the front, so the rear tires break loose, and the car keeps rotating out.
That one sliding bit in your video where you had your wheels turned all the way, but you were really just sledding on the front wheels because they were turned too far, made my cringe. does nothing but wears your tires down. That kinda move is no fun. I'm not dissing that move, I've done it a bunch too

Do another video!
(howcome your wheels are different in the video than your sig?) (I wish I was euro spec, and the states had some quality fuel)

your turning your wheel in to hard, and going to fast, plus yeah, your e-brake is too loose. try turning in and doing sort of a circle, at like 4k, get the rpms right there in second, then punch it, and feather the throttle as sson as it kicks around and give yourself a nice donut

HAH, i did that on a backroad, and landed in a tree.

Definatley a good way on a LSD to get those back tires free though.

Use at your own risk.

oh hell. No wonder that song sounded familiar! I think they wrote that song making fun of the 80's hair metal bands cause in the video they are dressed like 80's metal stars. Damn I feel stupid now

[tico481]

not a bad video by the way
