Forza 2 Drifting Video [720p]


Recommended Posts

I've never heard of the group, but Project Blackjack is, apparently, a very popular drifting group on Forza 2 and they've compiled a video and posted it on youtube in 720p beauty. One thing that struck me, regardless of the fact that I'm not a big drifting fan nor have I played the game in a long time, is how beautiful it still looks and how it can definitely hold it's own against Sony's behemoth.

Goodness... there's no way I could even get close to doing that. Once my car started spinning one way, it's next to impossible for me to go the other. Clearly, I am out matched :|

Whoa, impressive (Y)

Makes you wanna put in the game and do a few drift laps ... but deep down inside I know I will be cutting more grass than actually driving.

You need a B class lawn mower!

I agree. Great video, Chris.

Ah man, I wanna know how to drive like that :(

They probably use the uber 360 driving wheel setup, though :p

Haha, I doubt it. The wheel is locked to ~185 degrees...NOT good for drifting.

I've played the Demo. But I like Forza because the ability to tune parts is amazing, and a ton of cars. I personally like street/show drifting, not rally.

i think you are getting grid confused with dirt, there is no rallying in grid.

GRID is still an arcade racer with beyond boring arcade handling - Forza on the other hand has a very realistic handling and therefore pulling off a drift is so much more satisfying, specially mastering it. Any idiot can master drifting in GRID or any arcade game for that matter.

Awesome

Played Forza yesterday with the Xbox Wheel, jeez my arms were killing me, that force feedback is great.

I just watched this video not too long ago, and I gotta admit, it was pretty slick. I drift a lot in Forza 2, but nothing like what those guys are doing.

For one, start off with a car that's RWD and make sure you're using a manual transmission. Also, your tire selection helps too, picking tires that aren't "too" sticky (otherwise they won't slide enough). You also don't want "too much" down force in the back, because again, that will make the car stick to the track more when you want to slide.

Just when you think "I may not suck THAT bad at this" people like Project Blackjack just hammer the truth home, I do suck at this game. Hardcore.

+1

It's an amazing video :)
