How to Drift a Car?

[LaAdriana]

Accelerate before entering the turn, then release the throttle and sharply turn the steering wheel simultaneously when entering the turn. Once the car starts sliding, downshift and step on the throttle to allow the vehicle to slide out of the turn. After sliding out of the turn, correct the steering direction.

I think drifting is an exciting driving technique, the key is to push the car to the edge of losing control while maintaining it. The specific method is to find a rear-wheel-drive car, preferably a manual transmission, and locate a spacious and safe area like an empty parking lot. Start by accelerating to about 20-30 mph, then sharply turn the steering wheel to make the car slide sideways, while pressing the accelerator to keep the rear wheels spinning and maintain the slide. Then gently counter-steer to adjust the direction, preventing the car from spinning out completely. The whole process requires boldness and precision, with throttle control being particularly crucial—too light and the drift stops, too heavy and you'll lose control. Beginners are advised to start with a simulator or find an instructor to avoid crashes. Drifting wears tires heavily, so always check your car's condition afterward. Never attempt it on public roads; only practice in enclosed areas for safety.
