This could be the new grassroots. Even more so now with new companies coming in and bringing down pricing for good setups. For less than a couple thousand dollars you can have an amazing rig setup to practice and compete or go drifting with buddies on different tracks/areas. Compared to physically buying a car and then traveling to different tracks for thousands and hundreds of dollars every trip. Motorsports is a money losing hobby/career most of the time. It’s a very hard sport to get a ROÍ. I can’t afford going the traditional Motorsport route. I’m teaching my child on Forza with a controller until I can buy a new Sim rig setup. Every major car manufacturer has a sim racing team now as well. So we can get all the new race cars on iracing and such. Forza had Cadillac Racing and released FD cars years ago. So the potential is there. Can sim racing replace in person drifting. NO. But it can have a good place within that space and be enough to satisfy ppl and also bring ppl into the sport to eventually support the physical scene. Anyways. It’s a great opportunity and not everyone is willing to sacrifice their paycheck every week to go into physical Motorsports. Good luck to everyone!! ❤
We were running laps in a rush car. Think about Karting, they do not need the clutch to shift, so you hover your left foot over the brake for better ON/OFF action on the track.
Nate sick Sim setup i see a ton of drivers/drifters using them for training im just starting to build mine now that my first PC build is done but it's just for fun and great work 👍
The good thing about them is unless you upgrade, its a once off buy. No tyres, no risk of crashing car, no maintenance. Can race what you want when you want. Only risk is potential wrist/finger injuries if you're not paying attention :D
@@144.natehamilton gives you a chance to try new cars too. Ive been racing short course trucks and nascars on iracing. Being australian they're things I'd never get to be able to drive.
Very good job for your first event. the pro drifitng definitely helps with proximity lol. Can say it was a tad aggressive, but those peeps probably haven't seen SCCA Spec Miata lol. Keep at it, learn more but your racecraft is quite good
Nice Job Nate who would have thought just a couple months ago when you drove these crazy little cars for the first time that this is where your journey would take you. You killed it man great job and so excited for the future.
@@144.natehamilton I see you man your going somewhere great so I really hope you enjoy the current place cause I don’t necessarily think the path of an FD contract is what your gonna do. Only time will tell but so glad I found the channel to follow along.
Nate absolutely epic vid was like a mini movie you were ripping in that Rush Car and the drifting absolutely shredding nicely done its all about the fun great work 👍
Looks like you a few tenths through the corkscrew from the footage and the longer corners I could be wrong your smashing it either way dude and Chris love the content and wish the UK was bigger and supported drifting 🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻
@@144.natehamilton I emailed Caden the last time you told me to but I haven’t received it yet, so since I’m already getting one can I pass it on to the next person?
@@144.natehamilton I did! I emailed Caden last time you told me to but I haven’t received anything yet, since I’m already getting one, can I pass this one to the next person?
