Figured I'd make a thread so everything regarding FD can be found easily.
Just saw that there's a good chance of a Chelsea v Dean tandem... hoping for it so I can see them battle.
Anyone else getting tired of multiple people per event having bye runs in top 32? (5 in this case)
I didn't watch qualifying, but did watch most of pro2. I loved the guy who debeaded fully, launched his tire off, and just stayed on it and finished his run. He ended up winning that battle too
Pro2 wasn't even worth watching

did they change the tire debeading rule? or is it not a thing for Pro2? he should have had a zero, or at least i thought thats what would happen.

Danny George looking terrible.
anyone else notice the entry wall was missing? why did they remove it?
This year they aren't "doing" 0s anymore. Plus they said that as long as you finish the run with no issues, they won't count the tire escaping your car. I feel like it makes sense but on paper it sounds ridiculous.
What entry wall meow?

Watch 2016. The first entry is a big wall (its an oval track). You can see where the wall was dug out all along the track.
Lolololololololol. There is a wall. But its painted green and looks like grass!! Lolololololol.
Alright so I watched pro2 to root for the Vegas guys. Appears they had bad luck.
Not sure what happened to Danny George.
George K in the 370z lost damn near every gear in his trans and got knocked out in top 16

Bear Rzesnowiecky didn't qualify in his E46. Maybe due to lack of testing since the build got done last minute

Bummer. Looking forward to pro1 today. If I'm honest I don't really like how Chelsea's car looks in drift and how every ebrake makes the car bobble seemingly out of control.
JTP & Vaughn Gittin's stangs look much more stable.

Say what you will, but aasbo's car is fast.

you are allowed to debead now, but you are not allowed to fix it. So, if he would have debeaded on his lead run he wound not have been able to fix it and therefore not able to start the chase run so he would have lost. Basically this was the only situation that he could have gotten away with it.
that deane - castro run though
He would slow way down at the end of outer zone 1 then coming down the banking he would hammer it and just pull away from everybody as they slowed down reacting to him slowing down. Nobody could make that gap back up across the bump in the center and transfer. Thats what it looked like to me anyways.
Holy shit this.

Just saw the in car footage of the Deane/Castro run today... oh man

No left foot braking there.

Just re-watched the video after reading your comment...
It seems on the bank he does lots of hydro with clutch work then on turn 2 he does left foot braking with no hydro/clutch. Is this due to the incline of the bank? (never drifted on a bank that big and hardly ever watch in car footage)
I'm surprised there is such a clear difference of technique between the two turns.
LFB is quite useful on banks. I have no idea why he's not using it there.

Bye run gets the win!

Haha I've seen you (at least I think its you) posting on the maximum driftcast group. That group is the most entertaining thing right now.
