Seasonal PR stunts - why no drift?

I continue to have the greatest success with the Drift Viper.

I aced the weekly drift event on my second attempt, and by a wide margin. (First time, I forgot to change to manual shift, or I probably would have aced it the first time.)

What tune do you use?, I can’t get a good tune for it.

I am not the best at drifting, not by a long shot, but I have found this one works well for my style:

S2 982 “DRIFT ZONE” Creator: Tiptronik .

I also make sure that Traction Control and Stability Control are both OFF. I use Manual mode for transmission and just leave it in either 3rd or 4th (and very rarely 2nd) for the entire run. My choice of gears depends on the zone.

This tune does well for me on asphalt as well as dirt.

Hope this helps.

I’m not the best either at drifting - i Can hardly maintain to get 2 stars in total on this weeks Drift-PR., no matter which car i use (FD or Hoonigan, etc…)
As i want to get better i search and ask for solutions - should i use rdw or fwd, A, S1, S2 and High or Low PI.
So when i see a recommendation i give it a try.

Eventhough i go when i see a drift PR, i don’t give up on them but keep trying - at sometime i will manage to get 3 stars - if not… too bad

Keep up the spirit and happy driving.

There is no right or wrong answer about which car to use, some people are better with RWD than with AWD and vice versa. Personally I prefer AWD as it’s easier for me. RWD is less forgiving.

I did this week’s PR stunt first time in the Formula Drift #43 Viper, I did a lazy run with a few big mistakes and still easily beat the target. The target is very modest in other words.

FullNietzsche : After watching your video several times, using the TuneSetup M/A gear ,and several times of trying i actually ( bad words from a dictionary ) finally made
3 stars and Season PR event completed with 64.5 Points.

I really really appreciate all your help and guideline by video - and the same goes out to all drivers in this Community.

I’ll will probably search for help at another time, so please don’t say to me: “ that i have asked about this before and i’ll know what to do.”

Congrats, I’m glad it helped!

I would like to see more seasonal drift zones as I quite enjoy drifting, when I am in a convoy with my dad he says I am glued to drift zones lol. Cos I hang around in them.

If I were in charge and someone suggested making one of the Forzathon challenges be completing a Drift Zone, a Speed Zone with more than one turn, a Speed Zone that takes place on dirt, or a PR Stunt with a distance requirement that’s double what it should be, I would have fired him on the spot. This week has three of those.

You got more drift than you bargained for

Actually, contrary to my earlier statement I apparently really like drift PR stunts.
I am quite bad at it, but I enjoy trying to get the target. I think I spend close to an hour trying to get the drift zone right and ultimately I did it with 63k points.
The Hoonigan Gymkhana Escort was my beast of choice for this one.
