Well my computer class is finally in HTML. And my choice website is going to be about drifting. Was going to do guitars but almost every other project I do is about guitars :rolleyes:. That said I more or less forget all the important facts about drifting. So if it’s not too much to ask can you guys help me out and refresh my memory?

Example: Small turbochargers are essential for drifting & RWD cars are better for drifting.

Good weight distribution?

"Small turbochargers are essential for drifting."

WTF.

so a smart roadster is a perfection for drifting... :P :P
hahahahah :D

drift bible....................enough said.

N/A engines work best for optimal throttle response. You need to gut the car for minimal weight, better rubber for sliding (which may mean sh*tty tires), a steering booster, a stiffened suspension, a larger oil pan, an oil pump, and horsepower. Lots of horsepower. You may need to lengthen the control arms and decrease the steering ratio for ease of sliding. If these steps have been followed correctly, when you are racing around a track such as D1GP, you should be able to control the slides and the angle of the slides with the different amounts of throttle.

"Small turbochargers are essential for drifting."

WTF.

yes, small turbo means quicker spool times durr. with the turbo activated at lower RPMs this means more overall power when it is fully spooled at around 4-6k rpm, allowing you to get more horsepower. which in turn gives you a better chance to spin your tires before you enter a turn. lugging around a huge turbo in drifting means that it will spool at higher RPMs. this does mean more horsepower but you won't have the extra boost your want in drifting when it is needed the most.

Small turbos spool at 3000-4000RPM's. I would prefer a larger non BB turbo for drifting as the power band is larger and allows you to stay in the higher revs for better throttle control without the chance of power falling off.

For me, the best option is a brand new N/A car with big horsepower and no turbo lags.
And RWD off course... :D

there are various sites on the net, that contain drifting theory and techniques, but if u can drive i surgest finding a nice open space like a skidpan and practicing some of the techniques. nothing putting some personal experiance into your web site

You need to stiffen the car so there is less roll on the car. Roll cage, strut braces.

Suspension is the biggest factor here, the be all and end all of drifting.

Yeah suspension is basicly what you need for normal drifting..

For a beginner drifter, try drift in a skidpan with road cone and make sure the skid is wet, after raining, to save tires. Try learn how to push the accelerator and also try to look for braking point, this is important.

Try learning to drive before thinking about drifting. Just an idea.

This is for a report.. so much for reading the topic.
