When they let go they do it very suddenly. What tyres do you have? My 987 drifts happily and predictably on P zeros and my old one did the same on PS4s.

When I last got a bit out of shape when the weather was wet and very cold it nearly bit me-much wheel twirling and I managed to stay facing the right way, but a controlled drift it most definitely wasn’t😂 Edited May 16, 2023 by And.rs1800 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learned that one. What I also learned about these cars is they like the throttle open as early as possible in the bends. I try to be on the gas before I even turn in which is not what 'they' tell you to do but it works for me. Other thing I've found lately is my corner entry speeds are pathetic. Working on it.

That'll be why you can get away with throttle on way before the apex. Only cars I've been able to get away with that in were Subaru turbos. (Legacy and Impreza, I had 5 in total...)

BERGS2 Posted May 22, 2023 Report Share Posted May 22, 2023 On a partical hi-jack here (as I can't fine the 'for sale' section) I've just slashed the price of my Rims with Pilot Sports on the 'bay: bargain to be had for a brother here if they want 'em? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/125923266173 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
