    i think going grip driving is a bad idea haha

    ive seen way to many people who dont know how to control a car if it steps out a bit, or slight understeer, come badly unstuck trying just to go fast or grip.

    seriously id focus on simple stuff first, find a big open area, and start doin dohuts like ure local bogan vn commodore owner, and steer the car into wider and wider circles, if you have a good amount of room you end up basically doin a little drift rings, then once you have a good feel of how the car reacts under the power and how much grip its giving the car, you can start applying it as you drive into corners.

    what comes later is fast entering, but i think that comes after you can steer and have some level of control over a 'powerslide' style drift.

    thats more or less what i started with, im a pretty slow learner, so i practiced fuckloads, somehow ive never even hit gutters or crashed once not sure how i managed that haha

    im way too conservative
