Kansei Drift

Techniques to execute Kansei Drift

  1. To perform Kansei Drift, the driver should take his car to a turn at high speed, as the Kansei Drift is supposed to be performed at race speeds. The speed should be so high such that if the car fails to drift, the car should experience severe understeer.
  2. The driver should turn the wheels of his car sharply into a turn, and then let off the throttle swiftly. The car will oversteer due to the cornering force of the vehicle added to the loss of throttle.
  3. Get on the throttle again quickly as the driver feels the car is beginning to loose traction. This helps the car to overpower the wheels for the traction that is available, thus sending the car into a drift.
  4. When the driver feels the rear end of the car kicking out, immediately countersteer so that the wheels will face straight with the road. The car will pull in the direction of the front wheels, as long as the wheels keep moving. Keep throttling. If the driver tends to brake or let off the throttle since the car is extremely oversteered, the car will spin out and may exit out of the road.
  5. After completing the drift, when the driver wish to straighten out the car, let off the throttle smoothly and straighten out the wheels so that the car will kick in line behind the front tires.
