Is it possible to just never get good at a sport?I always wanted to drift. I used to rip the e brake in snow and dirt but I just suck at it. I bought a simulator setup and been using it for years and I never get better. I can barely drift around one wet corner. I just don’t think I can get good at it i never know where the cars gonna go until I hit the throttle and I’m already sliding out of control.
yes, i know plenty of old men who get into mountain biking, have been doing it for years and still suck ass compared to the fearless 12 year old who started 7 days ago., having a risk tolerance, or atleast internal motivation is necessary. Do you just say you want to improve and then never do anything about it. Its unironically very easy to learn how to drift a car in the snow, just find an empty parking lot set up some cones and then go until you can predictably do donuts and figure 8s. I also would drift my dads honda 4-trax 300 fourwheeler around when it snowed, but i also flipped it a few times.I learned how to lift-off oversteer, and trail brake my fwd economy car into corners. and drift my parents truck around in the snow (not very well mind you but its repeatable) hell my dad even drifts the family truck around in the winter
>>187150Of course you are going to fail at first but keep going keep practising fuck the simulators just get in a car find a place with not much people and start to drift, thats how i learned to drift using my brothers car my brother allowed me to drive his car as long as i put gas in it but he didn't know i would occasionally use it to drift too
>>187150driving is not a real sportit's the same "sport" as darts, video games and chess
>>187150just find an arcade version of Sega Daytona USA, the drift mechanics of that game is the best of all video games racers.
>>187150find a teacher dumbass
>>190230I love that game!
>>187150Do it for real on a dedicated track with a car set up for drift, doing it in a game even with FFB or with a FWD shitbox on a parking lot won't take you far

Do you just say you want to improve and then never do anything about it. exactly.I don't even think it's a big issue, their ego is just bigger then their desire to do better.I never really wanted to be the best (inb4 cope comment), and once I understood that I was happier.Admittedly the best mtber I knew did dirt bikes, bmx, as a kid and had some nasty trips to the hospital.>>187150Learn more. Somewhere there is a key to your problem, and I suspect learning+practice will solve it.
