Can a sim drifter drive a real 900bhp championship-winning Nissan Silvia s15?! 

Never would have expected to see you here Drifting is the bhop of the car world

Somehow our algorithm is pretty similar, Mr. Dean

Good to see that face after the first 1m of fear hahaha Goes from scared to drifter real quick

Your stone cold voice while going mach speed through exploits in any game are a very similar thing.

So... this is why we aren't getting any content.

yeah, it was amazing. but is it really true he has never drifted a car irl? i know most of his experience comes from sim drifting, but surely this wasnt his first time getting a real car sideways? either way it was incredible

@@socks2441 drifting a regular street car isn't the same as drifting an actual performance drift car.

Facts

Thy prolli let him drive a different car b4 hard cause he said he never drove on the left hand side either, so tht wouldve been harder

THIS! I was laughing out loud for this dude cause he CRUSHED it !

Man as long as we have had racing games I’ve been playing still brings tears cause he’s living the life we all want

I thought I was the only one feeling that way. They just made his dream come true. What a cool beautiful thing to do for someone.

u´ll love the grand tourismo movie

you can play all your life on pad to be a shit simulator style asseto corsa and steering force feedback can teach a lot !!!!!!!!!!!

will never happen to you because youre bad in reality as you are in your video games

Love you Red Bull. Don't mind the Monster livery it's easy to make. A Bull is hard.

It would be amazing to get a sponsorship right now… 👀

@@RhysTatterson81 good move, hope it happens.

To be fair, he probably has been doing it for years... just not quite the real deal until this video

@@milanharris113 Exactly, I wouldn't be surprised AT ALL if this guy is beyond 4000 hours in his simulation. Lots of folks on here can't seem to grasp how powerful technology is getting, but even a simulation like this isn't an incredible feat of engineering.. These sims have been around for a long time now and when combined with force-feedback rigs for your steering wheel, seat, and pedals, it can really jar you around and get to about as perfect mathematically as it can to the feeling like the real thing. Remember folks, there's tons of math going on when that guy was drifting the car for the first time. All it takes is for someone to figure that math out and it can then be transferred in a completely safe virtual simulation environment for anyone to do with until their hearts' content!

@@zaktryantel3152 yeah I'm pretty sure the only thing missing is the feeling.

Thanks alot man, I gave it my all and just had fun! I’ve been doing online drifting for around 13 years! That was my 2nd time driving left hand drive and my first proper drifts in a real life drift car that is built to do it!! I’ve only ever drifted my own cars on the street! :) Once I got comfortable after a few runs with car it just felt like I was back at home playing my sim I’ll be truly honest!

@@zaktryantel3152 I can’t imagine how many hours I’ve spent over the years! I wouldn’t be able to work it out, from Forza, LFS, rFactor then to Assetto Corsa it would be hell of alot!

Same here, 3 years ago drove my family and somehow got lost, an we had past some muddy terain not so thick but quite slippery, the cars back went sideways and to correct it i had to countersteer and manage the whole car positioning, it almost 30 meters sideways lol, after we get away my dad ask "whered you learn that move?", i just smile and said " U know dad, i literally not wasting time gaming". What a wonderful experience

For sure, it makes you a safer driver. I had a similar experience to you in the snow where i could have had a bad accident with one oncoming car, i literally spun 90 degrees. Luckily countersteering and instinctively knowing to let off the gas and not brake straightened me up quickly enough to not crash. The oncoming car didn't even notice me having that moment so he didn't even slow down either lol. Granted i was in a 4wd fkn Suzuki swift tho, if i was in a rwd volvo or smth i would probably have had more trouble haha.

I have a similar story when I was driving in the rain. I took a turn at too high a speed and just caught the drift and went through the turn with no real issues. My two friends in the car with me pretty much immidieatly went smth like "holy shit that was awesome, nice job!" and I just said.. "ehm yeah... I definitely planned that"

I recently took a familiar corner a bit too fast in rainy conditions and very naturally caught it and drove away with my head down like nothing happened.

No, actually that's smart reaction. Your eyes is last thing to notice that you lost the rear of the car. It was you, your body that felt that rear was losing it and you took a controlling action. If you waited till your eyes saw it, you would be death. Racing sims do taught a lot but not the real feeling the car gives to your body.

Thanks a lot Andy you nailed that to a T 🙌🏻

​@@RhysTatterson81 congrats bro smiled all the way through this to see someone humble yet loving every moment. Congrats again bro

🙌

Kind of like Takumi from Initial D.

He did for real just look super chill and then you saw the excitement after the drift

He was like a Dad teaching his son how to ride a bicycle. Pure excitement. A little bit concern.

his channel is candy machine. a mix of candy man and the machine who is james deane. them together is just hilarious.

like the pedal

I was going to say this I don't think a video on this site has made me feel the emotion this did as weird as that sounds... Looked like he was so happy for him and Rhys himself looked like he just proved to himself something he had always wondered.

@@sdenomme1 same , I haven’t felt a warm and fuzzy inside like this in a long time . I think we all have a sense of the pure magic he was feeling .

I was saying the same thing to myself. I think i was smiling more then both of them. lol

I got the same warm and fuzzy reaction, a little bit more than normal. Such an amazing outcome from a sim :)

the dude went from looking like he saw a ghost to the next second doing flick entry's not even looking at the handbrake. Even his steering was pretty good and steady.

My favourite bit too ❤️

Oh no it is different, but he compensated for them barely into his first run. Shows you just how good his rig setup must be

@@victorkreig6089 He has a very average sim setup actually. A couple of years ago he was on a Logitech wheel. Not sure about now, but definitely nothing crazy.

@@RacingPotato12 Very surprising, I figured he'd have a hydraulic chair setup

Trust me he had practice before this video and lots of it even with the top sim rigs in the world its still not 100% the same

Its not the tires dragging on the pavement thats causing the smoke, its his massive huevos!

He has some big pelotas

Rhysil on isot pallit

Don't judge a book by its cover and all that...

@@vanivermo Either that or his adrenal glands have gone super critical and are causing a complete nuclear meltdown inside the dude's body, but all we can see is the aftermath behind him

I 100% agree. Most people that transition from sims etc have the knowledge/wheel input etc but then compile that with the jostling inside the car, the amount of pressure needed on certain inputs and then the new fear of speed they probably never knew they had until they gave a 600+ RWHP car a stab of throttle. He did exceptional if this is truly his first time behind the wheel of a proper skidder.

I see this as a testament to the value of a properly physicalized virtual simulation! Virtual Reality CAN give you a pretty good idea of Actual Reality IF it's done correctly!

@@mariolawrence897 depends, really... VR can be good, but a simulation can never emulate reality: the fears of fucking up a very expensive car, getting injured for real or worse. Put it this way - i fly a virtual fighter jet off the boat, do air to air refueling, land back on the boat in pitch black darkness - but all in the safe confinements of my room, not risking anything real at all. I do pretty OK in the sim, but would i dare to do such things in real life? Hell no i would not. Obviously the risks don't really compare between IRL drift cars and operating jets off an aircraft carrier IRL - but essentially the comparison between RL and VR stays the same, therefor VR can never transmit the fear of something drastically impacting your life like real events can do.

@@mariolawrence897 what it will never do is recreate the potential of dying at the wheel. That changes everything for most people.

its cause he already knew how to do it in a real car

Somebody just liked my comment. Bout to rewatch this beautiful video for a third time. Lol

all while hearing your wife nag you every night with "all you do is play that stupid racing game!" - no wonder he had a big smile on his face, he can't wait to go back home and tell his wife! 🤣

agreed

just shows how accurate those things are and how much time and effort goes into the games. I guess it makes sense that they'd be so nice at the real thing because pilots train in simulators too

Doesnt take into account how it actually feels. The environment the pressure of the pedals the seat the car itself the helmets etc jus absolutely insane how well this man handled it

@@bruce1221 I think it's also genuinely easier to be fast in a real life go kart than it is in the sim karts or cars, just because of the extra feeling through the seat and g forces.

@@bruce1221 We sure do and the training they provide is invaluable. Stunt pilots use them a lot too for practicing and perfecting new maneuvers.

I stalled my car about 5 times today bit the dashboard twice and forgot about speed limits 😂 and this was going from my SIM that I haven't been in for 3 months. I felt like I was learning to walk again 😅

a bit less of a surprise after jimmy broadbent

Absolutely insane!! I'm thinking he must have a badass rig at home or he's just a natural lol

It's easier in a real car

I have played quite lot in AC, tuned into some live "just for fun" drifting online,but i dont even dare to tandem there (i have almost 300 hours in AC, 99% drifting), not to say tandem in a real drift monster....

Literally the same.

lets not forget sim drifting is cars with near perfect setups and conditions. Which is exactly what professional drift cars and events are about. Theoretically it should be and easy transition.

I have to admit I was one of them. During the first few acceleration he seemed very nervous and on the first drift he just let her rip. Insane.

He looks like he's very tuned. That's just concentrating without exerting oneself needlessly.

TBH this guy looked like he was about to take a nap throughout the whole video.. Big props nonetheless :)

Left hand car..2nd time!

He can drift with closed eyes and he can sleep and drift. Nice guy. XD

@Red Bull Motorsports Its just a matter time till a big company take notice and what better way than RED BULL MOTORSPORT, it will be cool and an honor if you could give this kid a shot. It'll break the internet for sure!

That's been proven in NASCAR, too. William Byron started out on iRacing and now drives Jeff Gordon's old race car. We don't have the sense of smell or the G-Forces to learn on, but the very principles of throttle control, braking, steering input, and 'hit your marks' all transfer over, we just need to learn how to translate our visual and audio inputs that tell us a car is loose or pushing and convert that into G-Forces in our seats. The most difficult thing that I still fight after 14 years of sim racing is how the 4 corners behave in regards to shock compression and rebound. if I can learn how to hone the shocks to do as I need them to do, I could do better. I'm also not a chassis setup guy so that makes it harder to improve. historically, the changes I think should alleviate certain conditions just don't jive. But I learned back in 2016 that I have *some* degree of talent. I was given a chassis setup for qualifying for a league race and started 3rd -- the guy that gave me the setup started 6th that day. The race chassis had me running better than they did in the long run, but I was wrecked on lap 3 which had me way in the back early, so I couldn't actually gain positions. Later that season at a road course I ended up starting 2nd in the 2nd group of drivers (we had something like 70 drivers that weekend), and I missed the fastest group by less than 1 second in qualifying. Ended up leading 6 laps, wrecked the car, took my tow and fast repair, spent the next 90 minutes climbing the running order and finished 2nd by less than 4 seconds. When I wrecked, I had a 12 second lead and had a spin while avoiding another car spinning in the very place I crashed in. had I not spun the 2nd time I'd have probably won that race. 2017, I finished 3rd in points in my division and 2nd in 2018. I wasn't eligible for that division in 2019; ran 4 races in 2020 and sat out all of 2021. I am planning on a return in January to see if I can find enjoyment in it again.

@@morgfarm1 wow driving around a circle is really comparable to drifting xDDD

Yep. What a great champion. Truly a wonderful human being

I loved that he knew exactly what progression to take to get him comfortable in the car and really give him the best chance of having an awesome time. Rhys also asked good questions and understood the answers. They made a great pair for the video.

I gained a lot of respect for a couple of men I have never heard about before. Also the way Rhys was so ready to listen to instructions, like how he immediately went to take off his helmet when he thought Piotr told him to get out because he did not expect him to be allowed to drive by himself. This video is just a setup for a set of beautiful innocent interactions between two good people.

Same. Loved his warm, "I'm a nice mentor" vibe while he had a rookie drive his precious machine. And when Rhys started getting the drifts in, he looked proud and genuinely happy for the dude. What a champ!

I couldn't agree more, what a beautiful person

@@DeliberateConfusion Exactly what I was thinking, I think the moment he started to feel the car sideways for the first time, and realised that he actually knew what he was doing, that he had control etc, he just shifted into that focused mode that I'm sure he's fallen into year after year drifing in the sim. Was awesome to see

goes to show you never know who is gonna be a stone cold killer!

@@DatGuy12345 yep. One big crash and you died.

@@DatGuy12345 nah u would have to be pretty unlucky to die in this case

I was thinking "oh, no, he's going to be too timid to even do this", when he was pulling away first time and testing acceleration, not going through the gears hard, clunky off throttle shifts, and then once he kicked it out in the roundabout, I was like "oh he definitely has got this!" This really was pretty awesome, he handled himself like a very measured professional full of respect and care for the car and the moment. Really fantastic program put on by Drift Masters, and Piotr really did an amazing job welcoming Rhys, making him feel comfortable with encouragement and being stoked for him, you can tell it really pulled him out of a shell of being anxious, just what Rhys needed to excel in the moment. While it's still a huge step-up to be a professional on the track, Rhys needs to use this as a sign that he needs to get some equipment and take the next step, you only live once, you need to do what makes you happy.

Not all of us are that good ^^

lets not forget sim drifting is cars with near perfect setups and conditions. Which is exactly what professional drift cars and events are about. Theoretically it should be and easy transition.

As a car guy myself I thought this was phenomenal that he was able to transition from one to the other. I honestly always called bs on it because of things such as the smoke or g forces but he nailed it. He must have a really good simulator.

@@anthonyfoltz2534 well g forces and smoke are independent from actual skill driving. All you need is to be able to Is actually drive a real car to get used to that other stuff. Same concept with flight sims although transferring into being a pilot from a sim is a lot more difficult because getting access to fly a plane is much harder and there's a whole bunch of rules and concepts to get used to that's hard to get out of a flight sim.

Correct! This will be an initial poison for him. If he find a good team to lend a race car I bet he would return to simulator(for money yes) IRL racing this will be it.

Thought the same thing. It would be so cool for him to get that opportunity.

Yeah this cam be a great way to get some average guys racing. I always felt that racing never really represented the best racer because it was limited to wealthier types.

Was just gonna comment this

Absolutely - Such an amazing idea! He did NAIL it though. WOW

He used the handbrake

@@halffulltome He didn't at first meaning he was already insanely skilled and he had a sense of what to expect and all he needed is to feel the car in order to translate virtual skill into real skill. He then started using the handbrake to pull off longer and better drifts.

Initiating with a clutch kick isn't difficult for someone who has some experience. HB is much more difficult to get down.

@@sermerlin1 he knew the general technique of shifting the weight one way while gassing it to make the tires slip. With 900hp this should have been easy for anyone to do. Throttle Control and steering after this is what was important

@@sermerlin1 lol you dont really need the handbrake all that much with this kinda power.

Gotta be the nerves dissipating as he realized he can actually do the drifting for real and that his experience translates

Noticed the same thing. Its because the big serotonin in Rhys organism who made him feel so comfortable. While Tor was stressed for Rhys not to wreck the car. Idk just my opinion

@@mrsftw1 I think its more of experiencing it. One of them does in on the road, in competition. You have to be always on 120%, while Rhys was doing it in sim, and now he got to experience the real deal. Give Rhys couple of more track days, and he will look the same :D

So I understand the anxiousness, but when you realize "hey, I can do this", then you gain confidence and I am sure within a day or two he would have learned so much more that maybe you could take him up as a real driver for another team because generally he knows his stuff from the sim, it is just transforming it into the real world :)
