Hi All,

I am sure most of you have watched this clip before:

I was wondering whether anyone here can comment on how this kind of drifting is exactly done.... I assume it is done only in M-Mode. What are the best recommended settings, if in M-Mode? What to keep in mind? How to initiate drift and how to rev through the drift; etc etc etc.....

Can anyone give a full clarification of how it is done?

I am sure the whole forum would appreciate it.

Kris

If you dont know I would not recommend trying on a M... you'll spin the whole car in an instant... pick up a old rwd car and learn with that... Nissan 240... 1986 toyota corolla...

There is no "how-to" to drifting. It takes A LOT of practice. In order to practice you need to attend a track event. And I wouldn't suggest it in an M5, because you are almost guaranteed to crash or damage the body in some way.

Those dudes are crazy!

I like this drift better...


to the OP, if you have to ask the question, you should not be trying this on public roads. Please find an empty lot somewhere before you wreck your car.
