I am also not into drifting but I belong to and watch a assetto corsa drift facebook group that does allot of online drift racing and creates allot of car mods and drift tracks for Assetto Corsa. Plus Assetto Corsa is well established and has VR. Whether any of those drivers jump over and try this game will be hard to say. Will this game allow mods in the future? Most new games dont. Time shall tell on if this game becomes popular, I watch the video reviews to see what people say about it. Plus according to another comment here, does not look like it will have VR. I do 2D games and dont mind them, but prefer to do gaming in VR now days like many others. take care.

(I have two personalities and both of them second your last words. Your last words I mean the manual 80's and 90's cars because I am sick of GT3 and F1. Not sure what you mean by only saying "NFS").
Try the drift supra mod on rfactor2, one of the easiest cars to drift in sims (the red one is the best, you get 3 of them). Also r34 drift mod is quite easy, but 4wd drifting requires more speed
Theres so many drift games on Steam. One of the best is Furidashi or RDS as they both run on the same game engine. But there are so many more with unlicenced cars but you can tell what they are meant to be as only thing missing is badges. This EA version of Drift 21 seems to have gone backwards in terms of content. Less cars and only Ebisu. Wont be buying it unless i hear very good things about it. Not keeping my hopes up as their is a video on youtube of some gameplay and the car other than going sideways very well doesnt seem to have any tyre model flex or suspension movement.
Why are you talking about pC2 on the same line as LFS, AMS, AC ?!!
You play with keyboard or what ?
I meant the handling model.
Don't get him wrong, drifting with a keyboard in Live for Speed is very easy - even with blown tyres.
because its compressed.......and its literally 1 track and 3 cars.
Im waiting for it to become available through a key site. Not even willing to pay £20 for it.
Its a shame because since its first announcement its looked really promising
So what are peoples rational thoughts on this since buying it? I havent yet bought it. Want to, its very tempting with the customisation BUT im worried about buying it and it being abandoned after a couple of months. Plus it just looks like car mechanic simulator with different physics on the car and CMS18 is only £6 at the moment

I saw some videos, most of the guys were playing in 3rd person, one was driving in cockpit and the in-game wheel did not turn in sync with the real wheel. Can anybody confirm the game does not have 900 deg steering animations at the moment? Thanks!
I thought this was a good overview of the driving/drifting, but keep in mind that this video is ~2 weeks old (and it's Early Access), so some oddities may have been fixed by now.
