Well what I learned in terms of how not to spin in circles in the dirt or grass, get off the accelerator and then very gently give the car gas. The first thing we try to do when we come off the track is slam right down on the gas cause ppl wizzing by but just take your time.

Another thing is once you're in 1st Gear and on dirt or grass you will have very little control, so try to not make and sudden turns, get the car in to 2nd gear and you'll be able to get yourself back on the track Capn

As for drifting TriniPcgamer, you need to use that E-brake. The key to not spinning out is controlling your revs of the throttle and most importantly turning that steering wheel. If you're drifting around a right-handed corner, to keep yourself from spinning out you've got to turn the steering wheel to the left in the opposite direction to counter the urge for your car to start doing donuts.

Keeping the car in 2nd gear makes it alot easier to drift in my opinion. You got the high revs to keep the tires loose and you can jump right into third coming out of a drift to get the speed back up to get sideways on the next transition.

you dont go x2board into a drift until you have control of the car. If you do that you gonna spin out. Always try in drifting to think 1 second ahead of the curve, so you ready when the time comes.

Essentially move into the curve at a comfortable speed you can first control, then speed up over time. When you are in the turn and are in an arc then increase your accel to where you are JUUUUUUUUUUUST out of control and hold it RIGHT there...and u drifting ;)

of course it depends on the curve and stuff. Ive already done inverted spins out of hairpins, which is fun (eg Head into a right 90 degree turn, go hard to the inside corner and pul to the LEFT, you start spinning out away from the curve, at a 360 spin release and power up again...and you gorn). But ive been drifting in games since ridgeracer days about 8 years ago and changed to suit the others that have come out, Rallisport, Colin McRae, DIRT, GT, Forza, Project Gotham and now this
