So the custom races are only for racing and no drifting, what a let down and fail.

Well, there are only 2 options for Open Drifting, so itās not as much of a problem over there. It would save some time, though.
so true man, we should be able to chose awd or rwd lobby since most people abuse awd + drag tire cheat build where you canāt spinout, get insane acceleration, and longest handbrake slidesā¦ so unfair for rwd driftersā¦

I have a couple hundred AWD drift tunes I have created and shared and I donāt think even one of them uses drag tires, I found the drag tires to be unreliable for drifting and they tend to act squirrelly. I either use the snow tires or stock, depending on the lesser grip of the two.

They should make awd and rwd sections for both racing and drifting. I love to race with rwd, its more fun and alot harder. But compared to awd in a race its no match. In fh4 i liked awd drifting more but in fh5 i really like rwd but same there compar3d to a good awd tune and driver there is no match.

I agree if weāre talking about dirt or cross country, but RWD is very viable on road. You wonāt beat the absolute meta cars, but in most cars RWD will beat out AWD on tarmac.
Sure you get destroyed on launch, but you handle better at higher speeds and can carry more speed through corners, along with usually having better power to weight.
Biggest issue I find is passing people who have no scruples about driving dirty and are usually heavier than you are. But if youāre looking at it from a lap times/raw potential perspective, RWD is dominate in most cases.
All that said though, I do 100% support drivetrain restrictions, for all game modes.

OK since im not able to make new topic for some reason ill try to bring this up in here, AWD GYMKHANA / POWERSLIDING SHOULD BE ADDED TO PLAYGROUND CATEGORY, due to current awd drivetrain and drag tire abusers situation, they are dominating drift events. Look for any drifing comp in real life, do you see anyone using awd car? NO! Also, after changing drifting events to rwd drivetrain only devs should add proximity to other driver score bonus, perfect line, clipping points bonus, and ranked system in future. I know driving rwd is not easy, but trust me its way more rewarding when you save that backie entry using clutch/handbrake/throttle control compared to awd full throttle countersteer where you canāt spinoutā¦ Also CAN WE PLEASE HAVE JZX 100 MK2???
yes it is complaining ,but please listen up to community instead of shadowbaning them playground games

I canāt be the only one who doesnāt want to drift in freaking A Classā¦
Just let us choose what drivetrain and class we want. RWD S1, AWD S2, etc.
I also hate how when you exit and search for a different session, it just brings up the same one. Like BRO I JUST PRESSED EXIT BECAUSE I DONāT WANT TO DRIFT IN A CLASS

I drift RWD. #88 RTR Mustang is where itās at. But I canāt do well with RWD when Iām going up against a bunch of meta drift cars with AWD, Drag/Snow tires, and 1400+ HP. We need to be able to choose class, and drivetrain.
Edit: Also, FH4 had different lobbies for RWD and AWD, why canāt we have it in 5?

exacly! if this is allowed in drift events, why donāt the devs let S1 race against B class for example? awd in drifting gives way bigger advantage compared to racing, willy jeep, bentley 8lā¦ Drag tires should add grip, now it is used by awd drivers to get 2x longer handbrake slides, and insane acceleration compared to other tire compoundsā¦
Fh5 online is a joke fh3 had better drift lobbies because we actually had online seasons instead of this random people spawning in nonsense also had rwd and AWD lobbyās before why they removed it is beyond me and now everyone uses drag tires and AWD to power slide so no one can actually drift anymore. Itās full of sweats who just use the car that gets points not the car they actually like itās sad. Online is depressing and lonely now only good thing is no ai crashing into u all the time.

when i create new drift build, i go to in myltiplayer for test and open did not S900, started A800 and i canāt testing my new build or why in game here time attack (on russian āŠ”ŠŠŠŠ ŠŠŠŠā) but donāt here analog mode for drift? why in game in one lobby AWD and RWD? AWD this is meta vs RWD.
why i canāt create evenet lab in drift mode or started custom race for only my convoy in drift?

unaddressed and completely ignored, the fact that AWD and RWD are still lumped together shows pgg and turn 10 as well, hate drifters.
sadly drift community is to small to do anything about it.
