QUOTE Drifting refers either to a driving technique utilizing a difference in slip angle between the front and rear tires of a car, or to a sport based on the technique; this article deals primarily with the sport. When the rear wheels are slipping at a greater angle than the front wheels, the car is drifting, or "power-sliding". The rear end of the car appears to chase the front end around a turn; the driver utilizes both front tires and the rear tires to control the actual direction of the car. More throttle induces more rear wheel slip angle and the rear of the car wants to overtake the front. The goal is for the driver to achieve opposite lock and use the throttle to fine tune the car's angle and direction. you have a FWD celica...99.9% of all celica owners are subject to UNDERSTEER...your a FWD car thus meaning when you enter a turn at an excessive rate your front wheels push out and you slide off the corner failing to hit the apex and sit in the grass.. RWD cars are subject to OVERSTEER this means when they hit a corner with excess power their backends come out and they slide(or spin in a circle) drifting is the ability to control this rate of oversteer...to drift you MUST have RWD...otherwise your just e-brake sliding a FWD car in a corner (this is not drifting) how ever with the proper suspension setup (ie coilovers, upgraded sway bars (in the correct setting of stiffness) ) you can get a fwd car to over steer...but i have yet to see someone correctly setup that in a celica |
