I made this for people who dont really understand how to drift or for people who want to know if their doing it correctly.
anyway, Drifting is basically a controlled "over-steer".
Over-steering is when your rear slip angle is greater than your front slip angle, which means your back tires lose grip while your front tires maintain grip.
"Slip angle" is the difference of the direction your tires are facing and the direction your car is traveling.
Easiest way to drift is the E-Brake method-all you do is tap the A button the balance the throttle and counter-steer. The throttle is essentially what controls how fast the engine goes and therefore how fast the car goes.
A tip I have is to use the suspension trick, the suspension trick loosens up your tires grip for some reason(doesnt work for the futo, i dont know why)
Hopefully this post helps! happy drifting!
