4 months agoThere's a lot of talk about using the ebrake being uncool in drifting. There are times when it is uncool but there's a lot more when it's necessary. For beginners that does not get translated well and often people just try and drift without it completely. You can do this and it will help you progress for certain corners. On the other hand there are many techniques where ebrake is needed to progress. What people are talking about when they say not to use ebrake or the ebrake being uncool is driving up to a corner, pulling the ebrake with the car straight, then turning in, releasing the ebrake and dumping the clutch. Why do some people think that's uncool? Well, it's the easiest way to start a drift. There are times when it is cool to use ebrake on entry, in a feint style entry ebrake is used to rotate the car more. The ebrake should be used when coming into a corner too fast that you can't use angle to slow down. It can also be used in chase to slow down. There are tracks where it certainly is needed and is a tool everyone should learn. What do you think about ebrake?
4 months agoSo many people ask why car enthusiasts spend so much money and time on vehicles, it's for the same reason you go out clubbing or clothes shopping, because we love it. One of the best things was getting introduced into cars, the new places, new friends and making great memories that contribute to my happiness. To be honest 90% of the time our cars are maintained to a better standard than most of the normal vehicles we share the road with, but because we have above average noise exhausts or anything that makes us stand out from a regular car we are deemed dangerous drivers or boy/girl racers when in fact we are probably some of the safest due to not purposely wanting to damage something we've worked so hard on. Our cars are an extension of ourselves not just abit of metal we use to get from A to B and that's it. Countless hours under the hood, the smashed knuckles, snapped tools, empty bank accounts and more swearing than anyone could imagine is all worth it when that key goes into the ignition, start your car and go for a ride no matter where your travelling. I'm proud to be a car enthusiast regardless of what anyone thinks of myself or my car and will continue to have a passion for them till the day I'm gone. 👊 Post this with a picture of your car!
