That's right, the Aussie

Noone but an Aussie could survive a crash like that

WOW! I had no idea that it was Webber! He's my fav F1 driver... poor guy.

Edit2: Hold on... If you look at the video, and compare it to the picture, you will see that there are no similarities in the surroundings. I think the same style crash happened to the Mercedes team twice!..

And now for my wrecked Nissan bluebird:

Edit: That's actually a pretty crap shot

, because you cannot see the front of the car lifted that much, using suspension

I'll try get a better one

Nice pics earlier here, I like the bimmer drifting.
If you have problems with the braking and ebrake, use the AIS (Active Instabillity System) to drift, remove traction control by setting it to 0 and the oversteer to 0 and leave the understeer at 10, raise it to 15 for 4WD cars and 20 for FF.
That should make drifting easy and it will also make you see one big flaw, braking during an oversteer is the right thing to do... HELLO! NEVER brake in a real car when drifting, it is dangerous.

But just when you thought Sweeper was done, he is back for more and doing more crazy stuff!
This time's star of the show is a Red Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R Vspec tuned to 700 horses.
Needless to say drifting it is not easy.
RWD drifting with a lot of power relies on accelerator control, too hard it spins out.
But for FWD and 4WD cars, well, you need to apply power but the problem is not keeping the direction of the car properly, but the "4WD crabwalk".

Once it gets sideways, it will keep moving sideways, it will go sideways over the track and off it on the other side and hit the wall most likely.
It is a pain to control and often requiring you to go a bit extra on the drifting angle to counter it, which makes speed drifting difficult and impossible.
But it is great fun

Oh and I also recommend trying to drive with either Sports soft front and Economy rear (You have to pit in to do this) or R1 (Racing Super hard) on the rear and R5 (Racing Super Soft) on the front.
Basically the car will turn better without becoming a nasty power over machine, but you may charge into corners a bit too fast and it takes some time to get used to.
But definitly it is faster I shawed of 2 seconds on my time by doing that until I screwed up (Overcooked it).

The danger by doing that is once during oversteer, you have to balance the counter steer as front tires have more grip and tends to brake more than the rear tires, meaning that the front will stop drifting sideways before the rear does.
