Which DriveTrain do you prefer for drifting?, Now with Poll| BlitzSupra | Posted on Sep 22 2006, 10:54 PM |
IDW Regular Member ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Group: Members Posts: 216 Member No.: 18,130 Joined: Jun 1st 2006 Location: Update Profile | For me, I perfer 4WD and FWD because they don't have that much tendency to fishtail. I just let my car slide holding down the accelerator and using understeer to exit at the corners. |

I don't much like Fwd - too much understeer... I just like to slide - I beat a bud of mine, I was drifting and he was doing a grip run - in drifting u can take some corners faster than if u were doing a drift run... |

The rear is way to swingy for me, couldnt hold longer drifts. MR: Better than RR, not as good as FR. Well balanced but its just too balanced. 4WD: I havent got the hang of 4WD drifting that good yet, its just smokey understeer when I try FF: Actually fun to "drift" with, needs a stupid set up though, usually makes the car feel sloppy to drive. |

THEY are balanced to you? They're as swingy as an RR for me. >_> the rear wheels tend to skid very easily. but that's just probably because of GT4 itself. This post has been edited by mark4000 on Sep 23 2006, 03:58 PM | ||
