The Best Sim Drifter on Youtube?

Who is the best sim drifter in Assetto Corsa on KZbin? I always see people saying this guy is the best drifter and picking and choosing sides so I wanted to compare and contrast some of these sim drift drivers. I prioritized videos with pro cars on comp tracks and did not include sim drifters who drift in real life for a more fair comparison. From the smooth and flowing style of CToretto, the door to door tandem and aggressive drifting of Victor Alves, and the 360s of Goosiest, who is your favorite and why?

Do you guys like this style of video? Should I do more comparison videos? Let me know!!!

[@bigfanofmine5630]

Yes i llike it

[@aftrnoon_ac]

Yes!

hell yeah man, more drift analysis videos would be great. I'm always trying to improve and seeing where others can improve helps me make more intentional actions when I'm behind the wheel. I appreciate you bro

[@Rahzarusfilms]

Goosiest is just all about the fun content and not so much perfect drifting but that’s why he’s fun I guess, for good serious drifting but also other amusing content like build series and TikTok reacts I think you’re the best channel on the tube when it comes to car/drifting scene tho

Maybe the Brazilian KZbinr "Adriel Machado" in the next ones? He is very skilled in my opinion.

Heck ya dude! Keep being a beast. Let’s shred together again soon. Been wayyyy too long lol

[@vini_mss]

I really like victor and he is super skilled, the only thing I don't like about him is that he uses 720°, he is super agressivel but like, I feel like this is a little hack as roof view cam

[@hayeduce]

well, t300 is not fast enough for some very snappy transitions, and having realistic self-steer is crucial for consistency. there is no such thing as "throwing the wheel" in comps. every logitech guy who competes also uses less then 900 degrees.

[@gitrekt-gudson]

I just wanted to say, when you said you think gloves make a difference I fully agree. I let the gloves do the work of gripping the wheel, when I run without gloves my hands start to hurt and cramp because I wind up using fingers more to grip, not to mention the friction when I let the wheel float in my hands. Gloves allow me to maintain a light touch.

[@EBDDUB]

Awesome video Haugen!!! Quick question: If you were a chase driver in Formula Drift (or any professional drift competition), and the lead driver were to swing wide and miss one of the clipping points, would you have a higher chance at winning if you also missed the clipping point by following the lead drivers line while still keeping proper proximity from the lead driver, or would you have a better chance if you took the correct line while having to sacrifice your proximity with the lead driver and falling back a little bit?

[@interstellar_1247]

You would have the advantage following but missing the clipping. In formula drift or any drift comp lead driver is the bigger one so if you make mistakes in lead but not chase it’s bad but chase and not lead it’s ok. So you have the advantage

[@merdovski5858]

Chase is not responsible to take ideal line. it just has to keep the proximity, agression, angle(equal or higher).

[@tomasmonteiro8864]

@@merdovski5858 that doesnt make sense if its a in clip u Will no go out just because the leader did it.. i get what u trying to say but i know what i mean.. also not all comp see the clips as main thing cause in drift overwall is about the show ! Thats one reason fd tires make so much smoke then u need to be the most agressive u can but dont forget the correction too much correction is bad, if u drive like that just dont be agressive until u be good at that the clips are mostly to have a line that the drivers must maintain dont forget the accele and decel zones.. fórmula drift dont have a priority on speed anlge show.. they have priority in all.. my advice ? Do what everybody dont do, just have fun! If u think about all the rules and things u have to do u Will not having fun.. and whats drift without fun?

[@tomasmonteiro8864]

That was big 😅😅

[@blagoydragnev5171]

@@tomasmonteiro8864 Your point of view is basically about drifting for fun. There are clipping points in drift competitions or zones, so the judges can score how deep you went in the zone and so on. You talk about casual drifting and shows which is perfectly fine. From what you are saying I'm not sure if you are completely confused or don't know the rules 😁

[@n0aimassistx221]

your a fucking legend dude your a inspiration to all

[@HaugenRacing]

Thank you fam!

[@WarWagonDrift]

Since this video dropped, all I hear from my sim drift friends is "I'm trying to stop using so much handbrake"

[@merdovski5858]

i think you should have do more research for this content. there are so many guys who really skilled at sim drifting. especially on the VDC, DMVC, DCGP etc.

[@HaugenRacing]

As I mentioned I was picking top content creators. This list would be quite different it was truly competitive sim drifters. May have to do another one!

[@demofilm]

I am trying to get my head around pc drifting, and this video is very usefull. You can watch the pro's at work

[@FullThrottleSim]

When are the Haugen racing gloves going to be in development? That would be sickkk

[@gintoki_dk]

Best shoes in my own opinion for sim or even just practice drifting in real life is vans and Jordan 1s just due to the fact that they have a flat bottom to them which allows better foot control

[@mirek2845]

Out of the ones in the video Victor Alves is by far the best but on youtube the best sim drifter is for sure Alan Hynes, the dude won multiple comp online events like VDC, always does close to perfect lines.

[@thesprawl2361]

Is he the sim drifting champion who got a go in that Swedish pro drifter's Silvia?

What about Gtoofast

[@guidohorvall1484]

I think they all are the best KZbinr drifter guys lol. I'm also subscribed to all of them... I had a weird go with hand break usage. At first I didn't have one. them I got the thrustmaster sparco and hardly used it to the point of thinking I wasted money. Then I figured out what it's used for and then I over used it. Now I barley use it and do more throttle control and left foot. It's a weird progression but no one told me I had to figure it out. The only thing I was missing was VR. Great vid as always bro thank you.

[@scottholden1862]

EvlRabbit is definitely my favourite drift game content creator on KZbin.....his style and skill in a variety of games is outstanding....great video Mr Haugen! 😁🤘🤟🤙👍

[@corysdrift5939]

In this format Victor wins easily but as you mentioned most of the guys you compared dont really fit this format.

[@JeuneF]

It would be cool a series of videos where you break down formula drift track in a chase and lead position. One episode per track :)

[@verzuxia2088]

yooooo haugen do more of this vids G they are 🔥🔥🔥!!!!

[@thatguylou]

great vid. love seeing the comparisons between some of the greats. everyone has their own quirks as you pointed out and just roll with it. man.. trying to find gloves is a chore. you don't have any on your shop so which do you recommend for sim racing/drifting? need to be able to easily press buttons on the wheel while wearing them. not sure if that's possible after seeing all the glove types out there but hoping you might have an idea.

when it comes to comp I think Hynez and Victor are really good. Content creators I think Evl Rabbit and Ctoretto are the best with Rabbit being more of a comp drifter.

Hawkeye's Drift Garage is pretty dope too 😁

[@dreiback182]

In my opinion there are reasons for going no shoes: In my case I inverted my G29 pedals and stock and inverted they dont have much travel and with shoes you feel like you only have half the way of travel in my case. So your more precise without shoes on G29 pedals. On ones with more travel I would also recommend shoes. Also in my case I have to use gloves, because I bought a 30 bucks wheel of Amazon, put it on my G29 and the 30 bucks wheel does have not much grip and after 30 seconds you hands sweat so much you have no grip on the wheel. In my case I use a pair of 100%(brand) Mountainbike gloves… yes I am doing sim drifting on a budget…

Just a question from a fellow sim-drifter: Why do most pro drifters in sim and irl yank the handbrake multiple times during one corner?

[@HaugenRacing]

Depending on setup it can require a double pull to get it to lock up. Also if it’s an extended handbrake you want to modulate so you don’t flat spot the tires.

I've been doing more tandems and I'm noticing I have to hold left foot brake to slow down. I have gripped up my car a bit and I prefer flicks over handbrakes, but I'm having an issue where I'm just going "faster" at the same angles. Is this because they are running less grip?
