yeah, turn off all drivers aides, put on either econo tires, or spend the money on the super slicks. do a few mods like racing exhaust, stage 1 turbo( even if its already turbo, it helps with getting the tires loose. ) racing intercooler, full suspension, and the clutch/flywheel and lsd...and maybe the carbon driveshaft. that is just the basics. u can even lighten it up. this game does have very realistic handling, so just drift like u would ur real car.it just takes a little time. im still not that great at it. but im getting better everyday i practice. so when are we gonna have some drifting LAN partys?
