1th attempt at sector 1, I was a little on the high side, which is terrible for scoring.
Why is this? It's always annoyed me... I thought, in drifting (which I know zilch) it was "cool" to get the ass end as close to the wall as possible. Plus, if you run the high side, you can be just as sideways and for a longer amount of time.
Also, insane score and sweet pics.
It annoys me too, PD's scoring system is flawed big time. On a real life drift course, you have clipping points. Those are spots on the track that you need to be close to, most of the time designated by a cone or something, and usually reflect the normal racing line. The problem with GT's scoring is, it is on the inside of every turn. The tighter to the inside you are, the quicker the score will climb, and the amount of angle seems to have no effect on score, which sucks too.
In real drifting you are scored on, speed, angle, and driving line.
In GT drifting you are scored on, hugging the inside, and amount of time spent in the scoring area. Which is why it's so easy to cheat the score. The slower you can go, the more time you'll spend in the score zone, therefore the higher your score.
I run them like it's the real thing. Hit it hard, and try to make it pretty to photograph.
