BROOOO 🤧🤧🤧❤️❤️💯💯💯💯 hats off to you brother, the amount of effort put into this video is actually crazy! best drift tutorial hands down… considering this is 1/3 i can only imagine whats coming next
All you have to do is tap R1/RT on turning. The wheels at the back go slippery and twist the back bumper and tap it again when accelarating slightly slower on the corners so your car is aligned upon the road. Around the corner
this video itself and your channel in general is all anyone needs to go from newbie to someone in the drift world, as long as your passionate about it and keep practicing
been trying to convince my friends to go drifting with me ever since tuner shop came out and never could, i showed them this video when it came out and weve been cranking out runs at the observatory every night since, now they wanna learn how to tandem. ty
Legit couldnt understand the other tutorials in youtube. I know the idea but their visuals and instructions werent clicking, until this one. Thanks! Edit: the fact that your marks are so consistent is also cool lol
Thank you so much for this, I’ve been looking forward to practicing drifting and this tutorial came in clutch. Amazingly explained and filmed, kudos to you sir, you earned a new sub.👍👏
great job on making this, the combination of starting out with the bare basics, then combining them as you progress really help. The only thing I never really had much practice in was donut proximity, when going into pro levels, I did do more of proximity for hitting clipping points and outer zones, but not anything with donuts. I will definitely have to work on that. Also, for steering input, I learned this a long time ago when I myself was learning. There is a method in steering that I use that I rarely see anyone use. I call it the Rolling Technique, where I am using the outer barrier of the stick and rolling it along the outer ring to steer. This helped me really get into the more precise steering, allowing me to make small steering changes while still doing extreme movements instead of slightly turning in either direction at small increments (tbh this is really more useful for getting clean and realistic steering for cinematics just because I hate the visual look of spamming left and right. Better to have slight turns and only change it in extreme cases to look better than to go function only and spam.) Looking forward to what you do with intermediate and pro levels of drifting. I hope you bring tandem into play cuz I never see anyone doing tutorials on tandem, and everyone I drift with can't seem to do it...tandem well anyway.
Thanks for the kind words and advice man! I think I do instinctively use that rolling method you talked about with steering, but it's not conveyed all that well with just the controller overlay - maybe I'll add this in a future video! As for tandems, not sure if I'll be able to work this in to these guides, but it's definitely worth teaching - if not there, possibly in a separate future video.
@@StevieWunderKid that would be great! I haven't seen anyone really make any tandem tutorial videos. the only thing I can say is if you are getting really close, use the brake to manage the distance, and slow down when transitioning to avoid hitting the leader. There is also 2 main parts of tandem, imo. It is Bumper-to-Bumper- and Door-to-Door. D2D is mostly keeping the bumper to the leader's door and B2B is keeping your bumper aligned with their back bumper. I will often do B2B as in GTA its hard to maintain D2D due to some cars straightening out and potentially hitting the leader. it isn't much to teach, but some people really need visuals for stuff like this. Also, I didn't specify about the rolling technique, I will often have the stick pushed forward when going straight, and roll along the barrier at varying distances to turn. it helps with small changes, but I will often overcorrect (basically the sense of forced feedback in a wheel, just constantly moving instead of staying steady) should probably do something about that, though.
hands down the BEST tutorial for drifting in GTAOnline, you not only earned my like, and my subscribe, but my respect too. Glad to have found a top notch creator, and can't wait for the next video!
As a ps4 player and a carx and assetto player that has been playing proffesional drift events in those 2 games these tips helped me out and also CONTROL YOUR SPEED never floor it if u want to go for a clean angle that will make you spin out and u need to be out for heavy feedback by your controller the heavy feedback is a upshift so be on the lookout
Happy to hear these tips have been helpful! However, as someone who's been drifting in GTA 5 for years, I can confidently say that you should be flooring it most of the time haha - this is to overcome the strong 'traction control' mechanics in GTA 5. You can see in the video that, for the most part, I am flooring it, but I did talk about cases where you can let off slightly and steer a bit more with the throttle.
@@StevieWunderKid yeah i agree but with sharper angles its better to go easier the hardest part is actualy controlling your oversteer lol anyways very helpful 10/10 would recommend
I never actually took a break haha, I just wanted to make these tutorials some of my best videos and they took more time than I expected! Thanks for the support!
Man do I wish I seen this video when you first posted it. Time to subscribe with notifications so that never happens again 😂. Awesome and super informative video brother.
I may switch up my car choice for the final (advanced tutorial), haven't decided yet. As for the intermediate guide, I'm gonna stick with the Futo GTX.
I do plan on making a full tier list video eventually. My goal is to finish up these tutorials, then get back to my normal cycle of car testing and regular drifting uploads - these will feature the tables that show the basic info/drift setup for each car too. Stay tuned!
I had such an easier time using the banshee for simple stuff like this. I bought the futo gtx to improve my general drift ability but now I'm struggling to get more than a few donuts without losing it
Most people I've talked to have had the exact opposite experience since the Futo GTX is on the slower side and holds way more angle haha. But hey, if you find the Banshee works better for the training you're doing, that's okay!
Keep in mind though, some cars like the Sultan Classic use different drivetrains. Sultan Classic is awd so it's a bit more difficult than something like the Futo.
Exactly, that's why I've only covered the use of RWD cars in this video (2:49). I've talked a bit about the difficulty of AWD drifting in future portions of this guide.
You actually don't have to buy the Karin, you can just go to the car park after ferris wheel it spawns very frequently there and you can take one then store it in your garage and go back and get more Note:I'm playing offline
Really good video man the amount of effort you put into these videos are crazy. 👏 Although i couldn't use the exacted map since im on ps i did create my own and tryed to make it as similar as i could
Thanks man, so happy to see my hard work paying off and helping people! If you've got a Social Club job link for your map, feel free to leave it in a comment / DM it to me - that way we can share it with other PS players who want a similar experience!
All I can really say is to focus a lot more on power control, either by letting off the throttle a bit or tapping the handbrake more frequently to prevent your car from spinning out. Don't move too fast through the drills, either - practice makes perfect!
This has got to be the best tutorial I've seen, thank you so much. I promise I'll be back to watch the intermediate guide next. Oh and one think where can I find the custom Map for practicing
Not how that works at all, really. Low-grip tires are beneficial for drifting at any speed since it makes it that much easier to fight GTA 5's "traction-control" mechanics and link together proper drifts, especially when you use the mid-drive speed boost (which I discuss in the advanced tutorial).
@@StevieWunderKid sorry I probably should have clarified this before. This is for what I call speed drifting, like downhill drifting initial D style. With gta's mechanics, the only way to do this is with a hell of a lot of speed, which the downhill and double clutching helps with, but also requires a lot of grip, which is where the non low grip tires come in. If you want to see it in action, skip to 12:24 of my 15 minute video on my YT. And tbh I've had much cleaner runs than that one but haven't uploaded them.
That's cool I guess, whatever you have the most fun with is what matters. Any sort of modded drifting feels really unnatural to me since there's no way to truly mask the traction-control mechanics baked in to GTA 5's handling model. That and, in my opinion, modded drifting isn't as rewarding.
Unfortunately I don't think I have the skill to make a good keyboard & mouse tutorial; I discussed this at the beginning of the video, and linked some good guides in the description that should help!
After some hours trying, I feel proud of myself doing a pretty decents donuts on pillars of LS meet with my Initial D car 😂 This thing isn't easy at all 😮
FingerFlick, Control your Power and angles. Its pretty simple. Oh yea Turn off that Vibration you gone feel that sensation. Its simple but takes practice. Also Drift Tracks/Jobs help you alot. GG Video i took these same steps when i Started. Its literally a Study and Whats Crazy you dont even have to max out a Car, depending on your Car if you go between options like Engine/Brakes you can actually fiddle with to find a good build because some cars have to much power maxed out
Exactly right, I also followed a similar process when I first tried out drifting a very long time ago. As for power upgrades, I tried to keep it simple for this video, but yeah, there always is room to play around with power upgrades for faster cars to find a tune that works.
The Elegy Retro Custom is one of the best AWD drift cars in the game, was featured in my first video on that topic. However, the Elegy RH8 has way too much grip, so it's a horrible drift car haha
Crap, didn't even think about different generations of consoles. I made all those maps on Series X, so that could be why it's not accessible. Sorry about that man, but again these maps are pretty easy to recreate yourself in the Creator! Either that or the LS Car Meet is another good place to practice!
Thanks man! And beyond equipping low-grip tires and stance, wheel choice doesn't impact driftability all that much - I discuss this a bit more in my tuning guide, but for the most part, you can run whatever wheels you want.
There's other strategies to control your car's power and speed discussed in the video, if you're constantly tapping the handbrake you're probably drifting too slowly.
Won't really affect much for these basic, lower-speed drifts! Plus, cars like the Futo GTX have a bit more power to begin with so you're good for now. In the future, for higher-speed drifts, it might help you out!
As mentioned in the video, we'll work in using the brakes in future tutorials. Didn't really cover the use of them since you won't really need to use them for lower-speed/single-gear drifting shown in this video.
I'm using the steering wheel mod but for the life of me its too hard to drift with a wheel In this game compared to forza. Without low grip tires tho. I can do basic power slides but I want my drifts to be longer
I placed down all the pillars and stuff manually in the race creator, the map (Xbox-only) is linked in the description. It's all located at the military base (Fort Zancudo), so if you're not on Xbox you could still replicate the map pretty easily. Either that, or the LS Car Meet is another good spot to practice the basics!
Nah, unfortunately I don't think I have the skill to be able to make that happen - I've only exclusively drifted with a controller so I wouldn't be able to make a useful keyboard-specific guide. However, a lot of the tips covered in the video will roughly carry over, and I have some better keyboard guides from other content creators linked in the description.
Sorry man, the difference in console generation affects your ability to bookmark maps - since I made it on Xbox Series X, it unfortunately can't be bookmarked on last-gen consoles :(
You can stance your car manually using the method discussed in the video! If you want a bit more insight on that, feel free to check out my tuning guide.
Of course man, just apply the upgrades that you have access to for now - a lot of the beginner cars mentioned in this video don't really need much in terms of upgrades to drift reliably.
Yes, that's how I have access to low-grip tires and am able to use the custom map. You can do most of this stuff in single player as well, however you'll need to stance your car manually rather than using low-grip tires.
I mentioned other consoles and PC in the beginning of the video, and left keyboard-specific guides as well since this video doesn't really show that. Watch the intro again and check the description...
the bigger problem is the lack of ambidexterity of my both thumbs to separately steer and control and camera. Any tips you could give for camera control? or does this just boils down to practice and getting used to it?
quite literally just practice is all theres no special button inputs to help with the camera….. you just gotta mess around with your camera settings but if you use the settings he does in the video and just practice a bunch youll be good
You have to feel the sensation These videos help but you will have to learn the hard way still just use those tips he gave out and Study the Drift mechanics and your car
Without even drifting, just drive around and see how you can aim the camera high above the car (in a similar fashion to how I'm manipulating the stick in the video) and get used to the combination of steering and adjusting the camera at the same time. Then, you can work it in while drifting - this follows the same sort of process as the other skills taught in this video; learn them individually then try to add them together. Hope this helps!
Maybe try inverted look for the right stick and see if it feels more comfortable? I know in some games I can’t wrap my head around the default up down or left right axis depending on the application, so I switch it instead of fighting / relearning. But ultimately practice. I got good at juggling the joysticks because I didn’t know there was a “high” view for vehicle camera for the longest time so I used to constantly use manual camera control out of ignorance of the options 😂
Yeah you definitely could, all down to personal preference though. I find low-grip drifting to be a bit more rewarding, but drift tuning is still pretty fun.
When i drift my car finds grip way too quickly( ocelot F 620) what customization do i put on my car to have less grip and traction and i dont have access to low grip tires
I'd recommend trying another car like the Futo or the other cars I talk about in this video, they will all handle much better than the F620. I have a drift build guide linked in the description as well that will help you pick out the right parts and show you how to stance your car manually, which you have to do if you're not using low-grip tires.
bro I need to know how do I get the Karin futo gtx? or even the Karin futo? I don’t play online btw idk if it’s exclusive to online or I gotta buy a pack or something someone answer me I’m begging 😭
Bookmarking jobs will only work if you're playing on the exact same console the job was made on. The links in the description are for Xbox Series and PS4 consoles only, so if you're on anything else they won't work :(

is there a map for xbox one? everytime i try to load up the map its not there
Crap, didn't even think about different generations of consoles. I made all those maps on Series X, so that could be why it's not accessible. Sorry about that man, but again these maps are pretty easy to recreate yourself in the Creator! Either that or the LS Car Meet is another good place to practice!
Love you video so helpful
Thanks for the kind words :)
@@StevieWunderKid OMG you replied
I always do!
Your the nices youtuber
Amazing video 🔥🔥
Thank you my man!
Incredible bro.
And the drift depends on the wheels too?
Thanks man! And beyond equipping low-grip tires and stance, wheel choice doesn't impact driftability all that much - I discuss this a bit more in my tuning guide, but for the most part, you can run whatever wheels you want.
@@StevieWunderKid Really thx bro!!
Helpful but my only driftcar also has max speed so i have to tap handbreak constantly
There's other strategies to control your car's power and speed discussed in the video, if you're constantly tapping the handbrake you're probably drifting too slowly.
@@StevieWunderKid thank you
Does not having turbo help or hinder while learning to drift? Im not ranked high enough or my rep is not high enough with the LS club on console
Won't really affect much for these basic, lower-speed drifts! Plus, cars like the Futo GTX have a bit more power to begin with so you're good for now. In the future, for higher-speed drifts, it might help you out!
I cant find benefactor schwartzer
Thx bro
No problem dude, thanks for watching!
Am i the only one braking With L2?
As mentioned in the video, we'll work in using the brakes in future tutorials. Didn't really cover the use of them since you won't really need to use them for lower-speed/single-gear drifting shown in this video.
@@StevieWunderKid i mostly Do long high speed drifts in the Mountains, L2 is good for that
I'm using the steering wheel mod but for the life of me its too hard to drift with a wheel In this game compared to forza. Without low grip tires tho.
I can do basic power slides but I want my drifts to be longer
🔥
Where on the map is this spot? im tryna practice the slaloms and its tough to find evenly spaced pillars like in the video.
I placed down all the pillars and stuff manually in the race creator, the map (Xbox-only) is linked in the description. It's all located at the military base (Fort Zancudo), so if you're not on Xbox you could still replicate the map pretty easily. Either that, or the LS Car Meet is another good spot to practice the basics!
@@StevieWunderKid Thanks g! wish you the best with your channel. Ill see u on the intermediate video real soon😈
Thanks a lot man, much love!
U still active on gta? Tried adding ya today I’m finding it kinda hard lol
Mainly on weekends, yeah. I work full-time and only really play for the sake of streams/videos, stay tuned for the next time I'm live!
What dose SSASA mean
Southern San Andreas Super Autos!
do you have a tutorial for drifting with keyboard up?
Nah, unfortunately I don't think I have the skill to be able to make that happen - I've only exclusively drifted with a controller so I wouldn't be able to make a useful keyboard-specific guide. However, a lot of the tips covered in the video will roughly carry over, and I have some better keyboard guides from other content creators linked in the description.
I've tried bookmarking this for xbox but it doesn't show up for me as I'm keen to learn how to drift
Sorry man, the difference in console generation affects your ability to bookmark maps - since I made it on Xbox Series X, it unfortunately can't be bookmarked on last-gen consoles :(
@@StevieWunderKid that explains it. I'm saving up for next gen so can use it then. Meantime I'm using the Los Santos Car Meet as an alternative
I have a Drive wheel i think its work too😅
Mad respect if you can do all of this using a wheel!
@@StevieWunderKid i try IT ITS funny
I love the video. Do you have the links Playstation as well?
The PS4 version was recreated by a subscriber, it's linked in the description!
i can only play story mode so i dont have low grip tires what should i do instead
You can stance your car manually using the method discussed in the video! If you want a bit more insight on that, feel free to check out my tuning guide.
ive been doing this for 2 hours and i cant even dough nut is it my car i use the elegry retro custom
That's because the Elegy Retro isn't a good beginner car and is AWD. I left recommendations for good starter RWD cars at the beginning of the video.
Is there a way i can drift without needing to be lvl 100 or 90 to add the car upgrades or do i have to sit my ass grinding lol 😂
Of course man, just apply the upgrades that you have access to for now - a lot of the beginner cars mentioned in this video don't really need much in terms of upgrades to drift reliably.
@@StevieWunderKid wow that was quick and thanks
You can actually buy an auto shop and it unlocks all of the car parts in your auto shop - no need to do races or he level 100 :)
@@jarvis1508 alrighty then I'll buy an auto shop
you are on multiplayer? doing the video, are you?
Yes, that's how I have access to low-grip tires and am able to use the custom map. You can do most of this stuff in single player as well, however you'll need to stance your car manually rather than using low-grip tires.
For some reason i cant find the EMS upgrade for my car 😭
I just always spin out idk what im doing wrong
Practice letting off of the throttle or using the handbrake as a backup to prevent yourself from fully spinning out. And as always, start slow!
Bro low grip tyres are not available
Bro yes they are haha. Once you purchase the LS Car Meet membership, you can equip low-grip tires at the mod shop there.
Location?
Everything's at Fort Zancudo (the military base)!
bro i wathc the whole video but you only talk about for xbox not pc plz hellpp
I mentioned other consoles and PC in the beginning of the video, and left keyboard-specific guides as well since this video doesn't really show that. Watch the intro again and check the description...
the bigger problem is the lack of ambidexterity of my both thumbs to separately steer and control and camera.
Any tips you could give for camera control? or does this just boils down to practice and getting used to it?
quite literally just practice is all theres no special button inputs to help with the camera….. you just gotta mess around with your camera settings but if you use the settings he does in the video and just practice a bunch youll be good
You have to feel the sensation These videos help but you will have to learn the hard way still just use those tips he gave out and Study the Drift mechanics and your car
Without even drifting, just drive around and see how you can aim the camera high above the car (in a similar fashion to how I'm manipulating the stick in the video) and get used to the combination of steering and adjusting the camera at the same time. Then, you can work it in while drifting - this follows the same sort of process as the other skills taught in this video; learn them individually then try to add them together. Hope this helps!
Maybe try inverted look for the right stick and see if it feels more comfortable? I know in some games I can’t wrap my head around the default up down or left right axis depending on the application, so I switch it instead of fighting / relearning. But ultimately practice. I got good at juggling the joysticks because I didn’t know there was a “high” view for vehicle camera for the longest time so I used to constantly use manual camera control out of ignorance of the options 😂
So do I have to stance my car each time I open up gta?
If it's a car that needs to be stanced manually, yes. Low-grip tires are permanent though, and they may suffice on their own.
now that there’s drift tuning, could you replace low grip tires with drift tuning?
Yeah you definitely could, all down to personal preference though. I find low-grip drifting to be a bit more rewarding, but drift tuning is still pretty fun.
When i drift my car finds grip way too quickly( ocelot F 620) what customization do i put on my car to have less grip and traction and i dont have access to low grip tires
I'd recommend trying another car like the Futo or the other cars I talk about in this video, they will all handle much better than the F620. I have a drift build guide linked in the description as well that will help you pick out the right parts and show you how to stance your car manually, which you have to do if you're not using low-grip tires.
Thank you
Thank you am now using the Karin Futo and I kind of know how to drift now and I just know how to do transitions thanks to you
Harley aww
?
bro I need to know how do I get the Karin futo gtx? or even the Karin futo? I don’t play online btw idk if it’s exclusive to online or I gotta buy a pack or something someone answer me I’m begging 😭
The Karin Futo GTX is an Online-only car. I showed where to get the normal Karin Futo in the video!
Does bookmarking jobs work anymore? It says I did but I dont see it on GTA.
Bookmarking jobs will only work if you're playing on the exact same console the job was made on. The links in the description are for Xbox Series and PS4 consoles only, so if you're on anything else they won't work :(
What’s the livery on the Karin futo
I think its called 'Delivery Boy' or something like that - just look for the words on the doors haha
