How do you set up a drift car?

On a drift car, you want to run the rear camber as close to zero as possible. This will usually give you the best tire wear and best forward bite. If you want a little more side grip, you can run some negative camber, but usually no more than 1 degree negative should be run.

Can any car be a drift car?

Yes. Any car can drift, as long as the physical needs are met. ... Any car can be used to implement a drift, but professionals will either use cars that have a history of good drifting attributes (with rear-wheel or 4-wheel drive), or use a local model that they understand and are comfortable with.

What is better for drifting RWD or AWD?

RWD is generally more fun due to being able to do burnouts and drifting. FWD is more practical (weight over front tires is good in rain or snow). AWD is best in really bad weather and poor traction situations.

Can you drift in an automatic?

Can You Drift an Automatic Car? Yes. However, the task is not as easy as drifting with a manual car because of the lack of a clutch. For this reason, you have to take extensive race prep work to prepare the car for drifting.

Can you drift with AWD?

Despite what the other answers say drifting is 100% possible in an AWD car. Drifting is simply controlling oversteer. That does not mean every AWD car can drift, most can't and it being an automatic makes it even less likely to drift properly. Most manufactures love to tag on the AWD feature to get more buyers.

Can front wheel drive drift?

FWD car don't drift, they slide in corners. If you wanna feel like drifting your car , you should use easydrift ring on both the rear wheels of a FWD. or if it is not available you can make a drift ring using PVC PIPE that match the diameter of the tyre..

Can you drift without a handbrake?

Drifting can be done with any drivetrain, but you wouldn't use the handbrake. You'd achieve it by taking a corner fast enough to break traction and countering the oversteer or understeer by shifting the weight of the car, potentially by using left foot braking (in a front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive car).

What gear should you drift in?

Turning in. When learning to drift, our advice is to approach a tight 30mph turn in second gear at about 3000rpm – this will give you a decent amount of torque to keep the rear wheels spinning once you've induced oversteer.

Can you drift a stock car?

Every RWD car can, in theory, drift. It's not that front wheel drive (FWD), all wheel drive (AWD) or four-wheel drive (4WD) cars can't drift - they can, but it's a different style, with different techniques. ... The best drift tyres have a stiff sidewall to reduce warping and ensure a consistent drifting style.
