 What's up everybody? Ah, here we are. We're here on a set of Corsa with my buddy Nate. You've probably seen him on the channel before. He was one of my drivers who drove with me last year in the 12 hours of seabring on Corsa. The phone's blown off. People on drift and leave me alone. So he just recently got a wheel. So we're here on MegaTamada in some missile cars and we're just getting sideways. He's only been on the wheel for I'd say about a week, right? Ah, about a week, a week and a half. Yeah. About a week, a week and a half and he's getting them skid in some custom cars. So we're here doing a little twin screen so you guys can see what he's doing with my screen, pedal cam and everything. If you guys follow me on Instagram and Twitter, all of you found the description box below. And make sure you subscribe and tap that bell notification if you want to be apart. Oh, it's a notification gang. So we're here. We're gonna get sideways. I'm getting lost in the smoke right now. Oh, so I know a lot of people have been asking for tips and tricks on drifting. And the one thing I can say is we started him off on 540 rotation, get him used to the way the car handles and stuff like that. He also doesn't have a shifter using paddles. So he has to be able to keep his hands on the wheel. He can't really throw it in full 900. But now I believe you're up at what, 600 something? 100. So starting off on a lower rotation has definitely helped you. I think you've definitely improved. I wasn't able to start off by releasing the wheel and catching it just because it's very difficult getting that timing down properly. But with it at 540, I was able to just move the entire steering wheel as one with my arms and kind of just feel, okay, this is how far the steering wheel needs to rotate for me to actually keep the car within drift. And from there, I was able to tweak it up a little bit, a little bit, a little bit. So I'm now at 600 and still working on it, but trying to get there. But I mean, a lot of people, when they come onto a wheel, they get frustrated because they can't drift right away. And I know when you tried my fan attack in my wheel the first time, you couldn't drift at all. And then I think it was a two hour, I think a two hour session where we were working with these cars and working with, oh, that's going to be a wall. I thought I was going to wreck it. I almost biffed it. So a two hour session working with a lower rotation in a car that handles pretty well on a very open track. And you were linking tracks. And now I'm having a hard time catching you. And, you know, it just goes to show that like people, if you start drifting on a wheel, especially in the set, and you can't get it right away, don't get frustrated, don't quit, don't give up. And that's the biggest problem. People get frustrated because they can't do it right away. And my biggest tip is stay with it. Just practice, burn off a set of tires a day. And maybe start on a lower rotation, especially on lower, great wheels such as like, not lower grade, I say lower grade, but the more budget friendly wheels like the G920s and stuff like that don't have as fast of rotation such as my fan attack does. So starting on a lower rotation helps you get used to the way the car reacts. Then you slowly click up the rotation throughout when you get comfortable. And then pretty soon you'll be on 900. I know one of my team members, Anthem, didn't run 900 degrees for a long time. And now he's on 900 and loving it. So he was on 720 and then 800 and then he kicked himself up to 900. These are missile cars, but I don't want to wreck them too bad. But now he's on 900 and loving it. Nate is, you know, on 600 and having a blast just drifting. And that's all it's about. It's just about having fun and getting sideways and getting used to the cars. I think you've had more fun now that you can actually leak corners than you did when you couldn't, right? Oh, definitely. Definitely. Now I just have you constantly hitting my bump. Yeah. Door dies. Booty bumps. Hey, I was going to get somebody chasing you. Where are my headlights not on? Now they are the doors. I don't really have. You don't have headlights. Your car's beat up. I kind of you stalled it. Oh, no, I didn't stall. I was hitting my head like fun and I lost it. And I hit the wrong button. May or may not have the e-brake. So I think some of the takeaway I can say is find a car you're comfortable with, whether it be a Tando buddies car. If you're first starting out drifting, which, you know, to me, Tando buddies feel a little bit numb in the front, but a lot of people love them. And I can drift them in their lot of fun to drive, especially in big open lobbies where there's 15, 20 people just running trains with, you know, Tando buddy cars or get in a car, like Nate's rocking a missile 13 with my physics that are in all my cars that are coming out of car pack. And it seems to help them out. I gave him my Z. He was able to drive it. So I think I'm going to be releasing here very shortly. Basically, basically a trainer car in my physics, a lower horsepower car with my physics and make it public so you guys can have basically a trainer car and get used to it. So when the car pack drops with all my cars, you'll be used to the physics and be able to slay with my cars in the car pack with all the real world cars I'm building wall tap. No wonder you don't have a tail end on that corner. Well, and I mean, I'm just solely impressed by the fact that a week's worth of practice, not even like all day only in like a couple hours, maybe an hour or so a day, one set of tires. And in a week, you've gone from spinning out to we're running, we're drifting here at Tamana, Megatamana circuit, you run in full tracks, I'm running your door kind of bumping you a little bit. But that's cool. I will say one thing that was incredibly helpful was just messing around with different cars. I mean, I remember you gave me that 350 fair lady to start off with that thing was nice and easy to get going and you swung me the S 15. I couldn't handle the S 15. You threw a couple more cars my way. And once I got a car that felt right, which was the S 13, once I got a car that felt right, I was able to just keep practicing and get the hang of it. So I say that now as I'm going up walls, I mean, you're never going to be praying. I mean, but like you said, getting the hang of a car, once you get a car that you can kind of feel for, keep rocking it and keep going and keep going until you get the hang of drift and put, just keep practicing one corner and one corner and one corner until it was like, okay, I got that corner down. How do I get the next corner down? Okay, how do I link them? See if you can follow, get lost in the smoke paint. I can't see. Oh, that's going to be a wall. So I mean, if you guys have been around the channel long, and if you guys know, I make mistakes, I crash, I mess up, it's fun to happen. Just don't get frustrated with it. Just keep doing it, keep at it and you know, just have fun with it. Drifting on simulators like this, it's all about fun. And if you can, even though Nate's probably not super comfortable tandeming yet, like in chase position, I'm sure, with left foot braking and tandeming, there's a whole nother, whole nother discipline that needs to be learned, learning how to left foot brake and not hit somebody when to use the clutch, when to use the handbrake. That's a whole nother, you know, discipline. But if you can run a smooth line, even in the lead position and somebody follows you, you'll have just as much fun leading as you would chasing because you're running down the line that allows somebody to get really close to your door. And you know, you can just see them creeping in, whether it's in your mirror if you're in first person or, you know, on your bumper and third. But you know, the fact that you're running a line that somebody is tandeming with and bumping doors on like that, it's just as much fun as chasing. Now chasing, to be able to stick on somebody's door, oh gosh, stick on somebody's door is a rush and it's a thrill. But it is a harder demograph. So if you're just learning how to drift, don't go out there, don't try and chase, you know, don't try and stick in somebody's door. Learn how to run a good smooth, clean lead run first, because once you get a lead run, then you'll understand how to, you'll be able to get into chasing, left foot braking, slowing down, being able to follow. But you know, he's doing a damn good lead run. I'm slowly falling back, but I'm able to suck on his door when I need to and have a blast with it. I mean, even though you're not chasing, I'm sure you're still having a blast with me creeping out the door. Death. Oh, there I am. Hello. So it's a different view for you guys today. You guys can see the wheel cam. We got Nate's camera going on his screens. You guys can see what he sees on his screen and all his telemetry and stuff like that. Definitely a little bit of a different take on today, but you know, bringing Nate on here to talk to you guys about somebody who's only been drifting for a week and you guys can see that, you know, he's never drifted before, never in real life, never drifted in gate. He's tried once a choice on my rate, but until he got his own wheel and he was just sitting there on his own wheel, you're taking the short line. And now he's pretty much linking here to Mono circuit. It's it's a slow progression, but it's a progression nonetheless. When we first got on a week ago, when he first got his wheel, he couldn't even make a turn. And now we've just ran three laps in chasing these cars. Just having a blast is a smoke show, though, for sure. I can barely see. I don't need to see. Now, the one thing he is doing that, you know, I'm not, he's not releasing you very much. He doesn't have a handbrake, he has a button, but he's using more clutch kicks, more initiation, inertia and car weight and just power to drift. You don't need a handbrake to drift. I know I've used my handbrake as a clutch before. It's a different style of drifting, but you don't need it to drift. And you know what? It shows because I always run on the take that pass outside line. All right. I messed myself up on that. Saw that you got lost in the sauce. A little bit. Oh man. These cars, this track, it's fun. More dives now. Try to keep a little smoother if I can. I lost boost. We're good. They're missile cars. Hit my rear bumper. I mean, mine's not as much of a missile as yours. Yours is missing a fender, a hood, a bumper, tail light, trunk's all knocked out of whack. Front bumper and real bumper. Oh yeah. Forget about that. You run that last turn. You run that last turn really wide. Almost walls have it. That's awesome. I like to try it from that last turn wide. Oh my. Too much. Too much. Lost it. Cut that. That sounds sick. I love these cars. The blowout valve pops. A little dirt drop. You know when you've been hitting the corner really hard in these cars when you just see that nice fire pop. Oh yeah. God, I'm just bouncing curves. Stay by, dude. Keep it, keep it, keep it. Pull is it. Re-initiate. Are we good? Oh my God. All right. This is fun. This is actually good practice for me. A little bit of grass. You got it. You got it. This is a good tandem practice for me though. You and all your competitions. Well, learning how to tandem somebody who may not run a perfect line is definitely, this is challenging for me and it's actually, saying I can't run a good line. I say the perfect flowy lead ride, man. I'm saying I can't run a good line. It's good practice though for me for sure. Oh. I did. I did. You know, I just realized my missile car has a bright seat in it. It doesn't even have an energy seat. Fail on my part. Your car has got energy stuff but I'm like, I've got a bright seat in here. What am I doing? I've got an energy wheel though. I've got a bright seat. Now I'll get changed. 180. I was surprised that I had working headlights. I figured that out last night. I went to a night track. Oh yeah. I made sure I gave you some sort of lighting because that would be very hard not to have lights. I was surprised that the tracks didn't have working lights and I was like, ah, that would take a lot of coding to get a track to actually. There's some tracks out there that have working lights. Like some of the mountain roads have actual like quarter lights and overhead lights and like blinking lights for like construction. I saw that drift lands on clipping points. Those have green lights on. That's pretty. There's a drift land at night too. Yeah. That fire pop though. That bumper tap. I see it. I'm right here. I know. I felt it. Oh my god, doors. That way. I got you. Saved you. Touch him. Oh, you're going to just shave for me too? I just did. Okay. I don't need to pull the e-brakes. You're going to do that. Gosh. No, no way. Touch him. It's so much better drifting with something. Oh yeah. All the big fire ball pop coming in. Got it. I love this 180. I think I need to build a missled out 180. Crack some tail lights. Maybe crack a window. Can you remove one of the headlights? Make it wink just on one side? Yes. Another thing I will say, you were talking earlier about helping out and trying to find things that work well. The other thing that I kept having to tinker with constantly is once I found a car, this car that works, every track I had, it swaps a gear ratio just because of that. Yeah. That's something about comfortability. If you're more comfortable drifting in a certain gear at a certain speed, you need to tweak the gears too. Be kind of in your comfort zone, little winky headlights. In your comfort zone of gearing at each track. It's also finding a good tire set, like tire pressure set, and where you're comfortable running the car. And know that once you run for a couple laps, your tires are getting hotter. So they are going to start getting a little greasier, they're going to get a little bit more slip, and you're going to find yourself not using as much throttle as you were in the beginning. We're done. I just sent us both into a wall. I think we've had a very successful little tandem session, don't you say? A little crazy, a little fun, a little different perspective for you guys seeing two cars. Now, if he had a wheel cam, that'd be able to know the thing about two different wheel cams. We'll have to get that set up. Maybe we can throw down some twin wheel cam videos on his, you're rocking the TX, right? TX factory pedals. Oh, I mean, he's throwing down. You don't need a super expensive rig to throw down. My G920 throws down just as much. I know a lot of you guys want to see a G920 come back. Videos will be coming back for sure. Nate just thrown a smoke show. So I think that'll do it here for this episode here on a set of Corsa. Some tips and tricks for you guys if you're just starting off drifting to show a little bit of practice, a good car. Even you can, you know, start throwing down some baller lines in just a matter of days. It's not, it doesn't take a lot of time. I've been drifting for quite some years. So, you know, don't think you need to be drifting just as long as I do to have a blast. I mean, Nate's been drifting for a week and it's a ball on, you know, it's fun to slide with him and, you know, get doors with him and stuff like that. So make sure you guys follow me on all social media, all over the channel on the description box below. You guys like this and you guys want to see some more tips and tricks from, I would say, a pro level drifter to a amateur level drifter here on the channel. Let me know down in the comments because I'm sure Nate will come back. I'm sure Nate would not mind coming back and talking a little bit more about his drifting endeavors from, I would say from not to pro an entry level point of view. Yeah, entry level because I mean, I consider and talk to you guys a lot. I mean, I have a good amount of drifting experience and stuff like that in IRL as well as in virtual, but getting the perspective of somebody who's just starting off to my perspective is it's definitely good for you guys who are just starting off drifting. So biggest takeaway guys, don't get frustrated. Keep at it. Have fun with it. The biggest thing is it's to have fun, you know, drifting here in a set of Corsa or forza or everything. It's just about fun and fun with friends and stuff like that. You don't have to be a pro level drifter to have a good time. I mean, case in point, we're just having fun bashing doors. I have more fun with thrasher lobbies than I do, like some tandem like pro level lobbies and stuff. Yeah, the tandems might be closer, but sometimes thrasher lobbies and doorbanging and missile cars are a little bit more fun than some pro lobbies. So get yourself into a thrasher level. Have some fun. And as always, I thank you guys for watching. I'm EvilRabbit. I'll see you guys on the track.
