How much horsepower is enough to drift? ›

I would say it's between 250-400 HP. It's pretty good middle ground I think a lot of us are in. Most engines used in drifting are around those numbers.

Front Toe. You want to run a slight amount of toe out, typically about 1/8-inch total; this will help your car initiate better by turning in sharper. This makes a big difference when you're trying to feint. Too much toe out makes the car twitchy, so I don't recommend more than 1/4-inch toe out.

The trick when transitioning is to slightly over rotate the car just before you want to change direction – and then lift off the accelerator. This will cause the rear tyres to grip momentarily and propel the car in the opposite direction – ensuring that you won't understeer.

In essence, Formula Drift is a competition in which drivers are pitted against each other in a series of races that test their ability to control a car while intentionally drifting it through specific curves and courses.

Rogers says to learn/just go out for fun, you only need between 100-150hp, but that number goes up significantly in the pro-am ranks to roughly 500 to 600hp, and pro cars range from 800 to 1,200 at the rear wheels.

Contrary to popular belief, drifting doesn't necessarily cause immediate damage to your engine or transmission. However, if you push your car beyond its limits or neglect regular maintenance, the aggressive driving style in drifting can increase stress on these components.

Unlike other motorsport disciplines, neither lap times nor track position plays a role in the overall score. Rather, drifting is a sport where competitors are judged on four main criteria – speed and fluidity, drift angle, line selection and style – to decide the winner of battles.

Different tires have different ratings and stats. They will affect how the car handles and its level of traction. Because of this, performance will also be affected by the type of tires installed on the car.

Thankfully, Need For Speed Unbound is not one of these games, meaning players are able to unlock every Trophy and Achievement on any difficulty setting. Race rewards will remain the same too, so all players need to worry about is finding the difficulty setting that is right for them.

Generally the rule of thumb is that more toe-in increases understeer and more toe-out increases oversteer.

Storage: 10 GB available space.

The amount of toe-in or toe-out is very small - typically 0.3 to 1.6 mm - and must be set by a garage with special equipment. But you can make a rough adjustment by altering track-rod lengths. To roughly check toe setting, use a length of string, preferably, or new, unkinked electrical wire.

Drifting competitions are held worldwide and are judged according to the speed, angle, showmanship, and line taken through a corner or set of corners.

Unlike other motorsport disciplines, neither lap times nor track position plays a role in the overall score. Rather, drifting is a sport where competitors are judged on four main criteria – speed and fluidity, drift angle, line selection and style – to decide the winner of battles.

Be intelligent! Knowledge and awareness are primary sources of power for drifters. Being a drifter means depending mainly on yourself, so don't rely on what books or mass-media tells you. Instead, study things yourself and become self-educated and self-aware.
