Well Hello There Fellow Gamers And Hivers!


This Will Be A Nice Drift Car!

This thing is stock standard...

Well as stock as it left the factory, saying it is stock is a little bit of a whack thing and it feels weird but it really is STOCK! FACTORY STOCK!

But I bought this car a couple of weeks back... heck I can't even remember and I've never even hit the tar with it yet! So I thought what a perfect way to clean out a race that I also haven't hit before right?

I first had to play with it a little on the way to the track! Now I was waiting for a circle just like this one to see what it can do... SIDEWAYS!
It's pure fun!! PURE FUN!

It does have the thing where it bites down a little too early around the corners but with a few tweaks here and there and fitting that drifting differential I think we might go very far!

I Just Had To Share More Drifting!

It's a game changer! Who remembers when I got my Xbox controller? Well it's been a while now and at first I was hella sceptical... I said wow this is going to be fun and somewhere in the middle there was a point where I just wanted to give up on the controller.

No jokes I thought I wasn't getting the hang of it but this is so much more fun than having to tap the D or the A button along with tapping the SPACEBAR for the handbrake. Sure I still have to tap the spacebar but now I don't have to tap left and right anymore I just flip the joystick on the controller around!

SO MUCH EASIER AND SO MUCH MORE ENJOYABLE!

Still a few kinks to work out yeah but I can only imagine if I have been playing for a year or three with the controller!

Testing The Skill!

Yeah I know I'm not a drop in the pool of what some oaks can do out there but dang! THIS WAS A HARD ONE!

I only ran it once but heck it felt like I was over the edge of my couch! It felt like my screen was going to set on fire with the amount of focus I had to give not to make a screw up of it! It was HECTIC!

With that said it was pure fire! ABSOLUTE PURE FIRE! This is a track I would surely come drive on again without a doubt, I think this is where skill starts to peel out of the seems! Pushing yourself to the limits and putting yourself in those hard to complete races! If I can run this track and up the difficulty more and more as I progress!

I'd be unstoppable in no time!

Almost Not!

Yeahp! I almost didn't make it!!

The rider in the lead really had me pushing hard! But I had to keep my cool because when you're being pushed hard things tend to go sideways fast! REAL FAST!

It's not like I exactly did the best driving out there to begin with! I was slamming into walls already just trying to gain the first place but when I got it I had to keep it!

Now since I snatched it at the very end of the race I did not have to retain the position for long before the race ended! Dang glad for that one!
I did however manage to push through right at the end and snatch it out from under Major Nelson!

It was a bit of a dirty trick but I slammed him out of the way and took his place! He should have known better than to trust me, I came all the way from sixth place and there was a reason I took up all those spots behind me LAUGHS!

Excellent job on this! I can't wait to drift and race again!

It's amazing fun 🤣🤣 although the real deal would be something better... but this is fairly close eyy🤣🤣 if I can only get my hands on a nice steering wheel setup 😱

Yeah I like the controller I can use that nicely. And some of the wheels really suck for input.

Race hard!

You are getting good with the controller, I see. I prefer keyboard even in driving games and while Rocket league is not a racing game you still need a lot of control and precise driving. I learnt to do it with keyboard and an year ago I tried to change it to see how well I can do with the controller, I sucked so hard at it. One of the main reason is the controlls are a bit complicated in the game, you have some air roll buttons, a jump button, a boost button and the ususal left right, forward and backward with some ocassional powerslide. It was too much for me to relearn and I just didn't bother to unlearn the controls. (What I learned from that entire episode is that if you want to switch, better switch before you have dumped 1500 hours learning it from keyboard...lol)

Happy drifting, bro!

Nooooo broh! After 1500 hours I'd stick with just that keyboard 🤣 I dont think I have more than 100 hours in forza and it was weird switching... like in my head I'm still tapping the spacebar to drift and stuff it's a huge shift (imagine for you)....

Besides one doesn't feel the need for the controller on a PC right? I'm glad I got it early on though .... I'm getting better at the drifting and I am still playing around with it, I did some practicing tonight and I notices that I struggle a great deal with medium to long dirfts... keeping that perfect angle.. its hard!! But in time everythinf will smooth out!

I almost had an amazing double way drift... first to the left and then to the right but I messed it up before it could be considered perfect! (Going to share all that tomorrow!!)
Btw thanks for the support bud!

So far I have not been able to see your gameplay. My internet is shit, right now I'm using my mobile data and it's impossible for me to watch videos with that, it's very expensive.

What I do know is that I've read you and as always you don't disappoint. Your way of telling your story is nice and I feel you enjoy it.

As soon as I can I will see your gameplay. I want to see how much you have improved since I watched you drive last time. Greetings bro, it's always a pleasure to stop by.

Don't feel bad about it... that is why I share some pictures and try to write up something about it! The driving is mehhh at times. It's not easy winning everyday🤣🤣

Thanks for stopping by though, I hope you can get things straightened out though!!!

The way you drift and still get yourself driving through that road tracks. I bet you super when it comes to you on the staring for real 😃
