dumb comment. youre only supposed to say that if the video doesnt have anything educational. this is litterally a how to video its obvious educational.
This soundtrack is fire also guy doing the English dubbing really adds his personality well in here. Even remembers to laugh and add emphasis. He pauses, and actually adds the same inflection. Very good interpreter.
If you watch Iron Chef - the original japanese version - you'll see that same kind of voice work. This was/is actually commonplace with Japanese to English voice-over work, as Japanese companies care deeply about how they are presented in the West. Doing English voice-over work is actually a very competitive market in Japan. If it interests you and you like watching Japanese media, compare words used in order and newer media. You'll see some words translate awkwardly, and over time what might have been described one way get described in a more West-friendly way. The act of "making dinner for someone else" is a Japanese marker of relationship status, that being a serious committed relationship. Old translations were literal, and thus confused Western audiences, whereas newer translations use more traditional Western Romantic terms. On the other hand, rivalries used to be described in a very hamfisted way, often times literally describing what a rival is, like a dictionary. Japanese rivalry is a bit different than a classic Western rivalry, the main difference being that Japanese rivals want success for the other and usually are rivals out of a deep caring or love for one another. Perhaps due to popularity of anime and a gradual increase of knowledge of Japanese culture, newer anime just use the word rival, and the audience is expected to understand that it isnt just 2 characters with animosity.
You can do it with a bone stock car but it will be more dangerous. Money = safety. You can try anything once lol and I have, £400 will get you a car, rented helmet and a drift day at a track if you really don't give a shit about safety. A tip, if you are going into a wall, aim with the side away from you, breathe in, breathe out, relax it hurts less.
Novice Drifters (timing depends on road,speed,etc) 1.Brake 2.Turn the wheel 3. step on the clutch 4.E Brake 5.Release E Brake 6.Release Clutch 7.Counter steer 8.Gas
The production of this video is simply amazing. So much passion in the narrator's/translator's voice. Descriptive camera angles, double analysis of everything he does with a decent footage of his actions. The music! Better than my whole educational system.
I love that he teaches beginner techniques with 7 steps, and then his favorite, ultimate technique just involves tons of throttle and steering lol. No clutch or braking at all.
i mean breakless speed/grip driving is a good skill to develop if not fundamental when expecting to flat out into corners in 3rd gear or if you dont expect to shift, mastering this skill is integral to every other aspect of speed/grip/sideways driving. Including tire management.
This feels like some old grand turismo training video they would show before you try to drift in the game. Keiichi makes learning to drift sound simple and fun, that's how a tutorial should be.
Not even lying, I was doing these beginner techniques myself before I knew what drifting was. You slow into the corner,get the angel and hammer it. It's so satisfying. DK is a real gentleman as well
There was a lot of drifting going on in those 70s car chase movies with the big American cars screaming around San Francisco smashing their way through fresh produce market stalls and construction/road closures
really diffrent than Ken Block drift teaching and he do it more easy 1. Get 800hp car 2. buy hydroulic handbrake done just go fast, brake and use handbrake on corner lol
"you don't need lots of money to enjoy this sport" well technically yes because first you need a car then you gotta modificate it and then you gotta pay for a new car because eurobeat doesn't make you takumi
alot drift enthusiasts use 2nd hand and old cars for the sport actually, hence that's what he refers to. Only someone rich and stupid will buy a brand new car to perform stunts like these for no reason lol.
You have no idea how many people found the lamp post award by watching this. There is nothing wrong with the video, the problem is the people watching the video have no idea about the accuracy and timing needed for those technique to work. it's not that simple....
This music reminds me of "Winback: Covert Ops" for N64 and PS2. Also has that "Gran Turismo" vibe to it like someone else mentioned in another comment.
I'm watching this stoned on my couch right now. But i'm hoping one day in an unexpectedly stressful car chase I'll have knowledge flashbacks and suddenly remember how to drift like a pro 😃!
if there was one thing I could show my grandfather it would be all things JDM really, Initial D, Wangan Midnight, Drifting. Then again I'm not sure if my taste in cars is causing my grandfather to roll in his grave because he did fight the Japanese a lot. He did own a Mazda RX-3 back in the 60's though so nothings for sure
I used to drift a 2000cc W124 122HP open diff on the snow, only power drifting. When I started to learn, I began swinging the car from side to side. First gain some speed (not high speed on the snow) and steer a bit to the oposite of the corner, then when you steer to the corner you press full throttle for a moment, then counter steer as your car lose grip, and bounce the throttle just enough to continue drifting. As you counter steer on the snow, you can press the throttle more to make bigger angle, just be careful not to overdo it, you will be unable to counter steer at some point... I usually counter steer all the way and regulate the angle only with the throttle. This is the most fun. 😁 I am not a pro at all, with underpowered car, I would recommend putting new tyres in front, and old ones in the back, this way you can stop, and you can initiate the drift easier. 😏 When you do not have LSD or a weld on your diff it is a bit harder, to drift. Note that if you weld your diff, the car would no longer be good as daily... When you corner (without drifting) the rear will bounce, and it is not good for the car at all.
My favorite saying by Tsuchiya is .. its ok monkeys fall from trees too.. lol stayed with me since I first watched "The Drift Bible" after I got my license.
I don't think that he means that "drifting can come cheap" more like "it's not too complicated". Using these techniques on a standard road car can surely bring enough damage on the tyes, suspension, clutch, and especially the engine. Drift cars require stiffer suspensions to limit excessive roll on the weight transfer and that it transitions immedietly. Maintaining the car after and during runs, it all adds up to a very expensive hobby overall.
Currently working on replacing an oil cooler on my FB but after that, I gotta try this in a lot or something. My car isn't very powerful, but it's a manual fr which is all you need to drift. Its probable what's been drawing me to drifting, its not about power, but technique.
This guy is truly legendary. It's amazing that he has shared his techniques with the world and reinvented the sport of racing. It is also probably important noting that a lot of the techniques in this video are best suited for a RWD car but can also be applied to FWD or AWD with some adjustments.
