- Day 19 Progress :
Just me randomly racing online, no damage so I can fully send it!
Sorry been busy with sleeping tbh I work 2 jobs and mon-tues is the worst as i do double shifts non stop so my day off I just end up sleeping ;-;
I've been doing some drawings too, initial D art style for clothes, maybe one day I can publish it here when its out! I love initial D art styles and I love drawing. Im making a brand thats simple and something not too flashy, and I'd wear it out on the public :D
Will do AE86 tuned again next video, Im starting to learn tuning and let me know if I should practice donuts on the ae86 drift instead? I notice its losing power when doing donuts, should i always idle between throttle and clutch? with the WDT car pack it felt so much easier and I just focus on throttle and steering, but the Drift 86 felt underpowered during donuts, it doesnt want to maintain the donut, 1st gear is correct right? Or should I be doing it on 2nd gear?
Thank you so much for the amount of comments and subscribes I get, to follow on my journey to learn this, one day we will try it on mount Akina for real~ I read every comments and taking all advices to thoughts and it motivates me to keep trying my best! I didnt expect I'd get this much support and subs ~
Hey everyone
in this series, I'll be driving on Mt Akina everyday until I learn to do it smoothly, and eventually drift. I'll be posting my timelaps until I improve myself, and go to the real Mt Akina and properly drift there, and become a professional racer!
I'm new to sim racing, as its slippery for me compared to IRL
all these videos are for my self improvement, so advices are welcomed!
hoping one day I can race fellow racers too, make friends and race on these mountain pass :)
Even if I dont upload everyday, I try to do a lap of Akina before I sleep!
I work double shifts on 3 -4 days so I get tired when I get home but Im dedicated to learn how to drift!
Apologies if my English isn't the best~
Setup :
Logitech G293 + H shifter manual, Ebay handbrake ;-;
let me know where I can improve, downshifting, upshifting etc!~
Takumi Fujiwara
Also if you want to find me randomly, I do my practices or races random people on this server : acstuff.ru/s/q:race/online/join?ip=203.12.4.75&httpPort=8087 good luck finding that fujiwara kid!
Good progress! On 0:18, the AE86 drift is not particularly slower, but since it's drift tuned it'll slide out more, which makes it a bit slower since you get less traction overall.
On 2:00, you can just try to enter that corner really wide and then hug the apex, if you feel like you're lacking the power try kicking the clutch if you want to drift the whole thing. Downshifting would also work but it can be easy to spin out or understeer, so be careful!
Also, for the handbrake turns, try not holding it too much or else the car will slide far more than you expect. Absolutely mashing the handbrake works on those slippery drift cars but if you try to do it on a more grippier one like the 86 you can't be too rough on it!
If I see you on that server I'll definitely tag along!
Thank you! Yes i am not used for the handbrake yet, i dont know if im slidimg or not so i would hold it until i felt im sideway, then i step on the gas, but at this point, im already doing 180 :")
Amazing progress!! I can see how much you are improving since you have started. None the less, you have a couple of problems to fix. I saw a lot of times in the video you were understeering. The drift 86 is actually better than the tuned in this scenario because you are able to aggressively slide it into a corner. Right now, work on getting that car sideways by either aggressive braking, clutch kicking, or weight transfering. When you are understeering, you can resort to handbraking. If you are using a button as a handbrake, i suggest you tap the button rapidly but just barely to get your tail to slide out(dont hold the button for too long or it will cause the car to oversteer). Once in a drift, press the gas harder and let the car slide a bit more. keep it up my man 👍👍👍
thank you steve ! yes i feel it more aggresive and easier to slide than the tuned. im using a proper handbrake controller but im still not used to how long should i hold it for !
🔥🔥keep it up!!! love the progress
Thank you for motivating!
1:36 this is the one mistakes that keeps you away from successfully performing a braking drift, you're trying to mix clutch kick with heel & toe in all corners, which is an extremely advanced technique that youre not even gonna need 99% of the time, that will give tou understeer on the 86. So First of all I'd say forget about clutch kicks, and dont believe all those kids who tell you to step hard on the gas to slide the rear every corner, you dont need that, and thats not how braking drift works, on a downhill, stepping hard on the accel to slide the rear will push you down the street because of gravity, you have low rear grip on a drift and to make things worse you're losing all front grip by stepping on the gas hard; down the hill you go.
On tsuchiya keiichi's drift bible, he explains that the rear should slide with the brakes only, and when he was learning to drift he would open the gas in the apex to slide because HE COULDN'T manage to do a proper braking drift ( he was afraid of the speed and braking too much). There are two things you can do to make 100%sure the 86 slides in those corners
#1 is braking with a one-two rythm, and this was also said by TK. When you aproach the corner, if you need to slow down to a certain speed, and the distance between current speed and cornering speed =100%, you should do a first braking of 70%, then, when you're about to enter the corner, do some stronger braking to erase the remaining 30% while making sure the weight actually goes to the front.
#2 thing you have to do is practice on the simple corners first, like the hairpins, build the right muscle memory so that when you tackle the hardest corners your body won't betray you.
There's a few things i wanna make sure you know about steering and heel & toe, first, during heel & toe do not step hard on the gas, just around 50% of pressure is enough, if you're having trouble preserving those revs you gain because your left foot is slow, the issue is on the left foot not the right one, so dont try to compensate with the right one.
And about steering, i don't know if you've read something about what slip angle ACTUALLY is in reality, but if you haven't you should.
For now, remember that the faster you go, the less you have to turn the wheel, to the point that at around 130kph you should be rotating the steering wheel around one cuarter of a circle or less. In that situation, its better to ease the throttle a little if you want more front grip and rotation instead of asking too much of the steering, to avoid understeering. Keep practicing!
Thank you~ but i didnt use clutch kick at all during this timeclip, or any other times! I only used the clutch kick during the last 5 hairpin and thats only if im losing power :")) i think i just steer too fast, faster than my speed so it understeered instead of turning properly! Most of the drifts i do downhill is just brake drift , theres no clutch kicks at all!
When people say heel and toe, is that the inertia drift? Or is it a technique to downshift while using all 3 pedals at the same time with your heel and toe? Im confused on this one! Also somewhat, forcing inertia on this map somewhat feels very difficult because most of the big corners like the first corner, is very tight, the rest is just constant hairpins, which inertia somewhat doesnt work for me or maybe ive still been doing it wrong.. ive just been braking hard while transferrimg the weight to the butt, then when i feel the car is slipping, i would step on the gas.. but some situation the engine loses power and i was thinking if i should clutch everytime i hold the brake but then i realize that will also make the rev lower unless i press all 3 pedals at once! Maybe i should just downshift during this
I think the problem is that you're stepping on the gas whilst turning instead of holding the brakes or lifting off the gas while turning @@realTakumifujiwara
@@realTakumifujiwaraokay, first of all, heel & toe is like you said, braking, clutching, downshifting, then you tap on the gas lightly whilst still on the brakes+ clutch, and then release the clutch whilst still on the brakes. You do it to prevent engine from suddenly increasing the revs when you disengage the clutch. That way you are the one increasing the revs while clutching and they will only go down when you let go of the clutch, since the wheels where not connected to the engine when the rise in revs happened, there is no disruption of the car's weight or balance.
Inertia drift is connecting one drift with another in the opposite direction.
I think what you're referring to is the feint or Scandinavian flick, it's used to force rotation when you don't have enough speed to brake hard on corner entry.
Back to the topic of the braking drift, you can also try starting a drift by moderately braking (around 40%) and at the same time moderately steering into the corner (don't go past one quarter of a circle, speaking about the in game model) you have to instantly release the brakes when you reach that 40% or the car will not slide.
Braking drift is tricky because you need to brake hard but, braking hard can generate understeer if you try to steer at the same time, the tyre's grip can't manage hard braking and hard steering at the same time for too long. Independently of how hard you brake, abusing the steering wheel gives understeer on its own which only makes things harder to figure out.
The most important thing is rythm, or momentum. When you brake the weight goes to the front, and you have less than half of a second (if you keep constant brake pressure) to induce rotation and brake traction of the rear, because the suspension will move the weight back closer to the middle, unless you brake harder than the moment before (you can ease the brakes and then brake harder again if for example you already did 100% braking from the start)
Imagine you're about to throw a frisbee, and you do the motion, but instead of releasing your grip you hold it; it's never gonna fly because you didn't take the chance, the momentum, rythm, etc.
That's why braking with a one two rythm can help you to learn the braking drift. And it's also the reason why the paper cup is such a good training, it makes you conscious about inertia, momentum, and balance at all times.
Sorry for the long text I hope it's not hard to understand what I said 🤣
@@realTakumifujiwara yeah the car will lose power when you brake, that's inevitable, don't worry about that, you can still start the drift. You should only step on the gas for like 50% the moment after you feel the rear slide and your car is pointing like 45-75% towards the apex,(speaking about hairpins) and then judge wether or not you need to step harder after that. Generally speaking 50% will make you slide for a moment and then you regain traction, most likely whilst still aiming at the guardrail lol. It depends on the tune too. If you place front rebound at 5 it will be easier to rotate the car with the accel, but you lose front grip considerably so it's harder to control where you wanna go while drifting.
You will learn to do the takumi drift (accel on corner entry) once you have full control of the accel pedal and you're capable of sliding the rear at all times, because in order to do it you have to do like full gas for a moment and then ease the gas for an undetermined ammount (depends on the corner and your current revs)
It's crazy to try it when you're still learning because you don't even know the right steering angles to countersteer yet. Between power over on the apex and a full takumi drift there is years of experience but it could be months of you're learning fast
Learn to position yourself before a corner. Search for the apex. 4:06 is definite improvement! Your braking has become much better too.
Thank you! I will research about apex 👀
Keep it up, I like this progression :D
