1st video is not drifting. Period.

2 and 3 I won't complain about, but it doesn't look like you're really trying to control the car other than keeping it non-straight. I admittedly don't have audio at the moment so I can't figure out your steering and throttle, but it doesn't look like it. Try putting a cup or can on the floor and drifting circles around it. ;)

well its alright for now...
just keep practicing because its a lot of fun once you get the hang of it.then you can drift on tracks and around abstacles!

[gtislide]

Yeah I kn ow the first vid is just spinning. Actually I use very little throttle to control the car. most of the time I am opposite lock while drifting. I can drift around a 2 foot diameter circle.

nice but i hate that screaching noise im guessing ur useing the drift kit? i just use the hard slick so it duznt screach like that

[gtislide]

I'm not sure about the screaching your talking about. I think that you are hearing my motor. 2x2 lithium AD mini z stock motor on the lancer. I also use Atomic mini z drift tires. The G has a AWD.Lithium,V2.2 also Atomic Mini z Drift tires. I can drift the car using the stock rubber tires the problem is when it does catch the car is to fast for indoors.

not bad, in my opinion, AWD is not real drift, try RWD, its so much more challenging but sooo rewardin once you get the hang of it.

The first vid wasn't drift, as color0 already said. The last two...a little bit but still not really drifting. It did bear some similarities to freestyle drifting though. Overall I think you've got a good start on things, with a bit more practice i think you'll be an Xmod drift pro in no time!! :D

There are actually pros that drift AWD. Even though alot of Evos and STIs are converted to RWD for drifting there are a handful of ballsy drivers that drift with AWD in reall life. So to says its not drifting just because its AWD is not correct at all. Drifting is about the technique and the controlled slide and connecting those slides through a track or freestyle area. Drifting is an action, a verb...it has nothing to do with FWD, AWD or RWD.

For AWD drifting you need a very stiff suspension and lots and lots and lots of speed (this is real life). Its extremely difficult which is why you don't see many AWD drifters around. But the bottom line is just because the car is AWD doesn't mean its not drifting.

RWD drifting with an Xmod is fun once you get the hang of it but now that I've been doing it for awhile I'd much rather drift AWD with an Xmod because it doesn't take as much thinking and judgment...and I don't have to worry about crashing and breaking another front bumper on my Lancer :(
