    Lesson 1 - Simple Slide



    Going Slide

    Start approaching to the turn by going left , and just before the beggining of the turn
    press RIGHT key. As you start making the corner, you now need to press BRAKE, which means you will be pressing 3 keys at the same time : GAS, RIGHT, BRAKE. You will now be sliding accross the turn.
    And what to do next?? simply release brake button, the car will continue to slide even if you
    are not pressing the BRAKE key.

    In this demonstration, i release at middle of the turn both GAS and BRAKE key.
    but the RIGHT key stays pressed all the time till the finish!!

    Important : It doesnt mean that you will always have to release the GAS key. I just did that to control the speed of the car, wich can also be compensated by pressing longer on the BRAKE key instead of releasing GAS. It always depends on the angle of the turn, total speed you were driving, and preparations for approach on a possible next turn.

    :: :: :: :: :: ::

    Lesson 2 - WallHit Slide



    WallHit

    Sometimes turning the usual way its not the best choice.
    In some occasions when the car is going too fast, and you have to make
    a hard turn, this option will make loose less time.

    Its easy to perform, simply hit the wall when
    you are only some few meters away from the turn and just after you hit it,
    press direction of the turn, combined with a little braking to help you control the drift.
    The braking is not always necessary, it dependes on how much speed and angle of turn we
    are talking about. As well as sometimes the braking needs to be pressed longer than
    in this demonstration.

    Now remember, this demonstration is not "mathematical"! Each player has is own way to drive,
    and key combinations or timing can have little diferences than the ones i presented here.

    :: :: :: :: :: ::

    Lesson 3 - Not enough speed to Drift?



    Drifting with not enough speed

    The demonstration seems very easy to perform. And it is, but you will need to get used and pratice it.

    When the car is going slow, you wont be able to drift, and most of the times
    you think that making the turn in F1 style is the only Option. NOT ANYMORE!
    As you can notice, as i start attacking the curve,
    there is a little "blinking" on the RIGHT key, as i stop pressing it for
    a milisecond. So you have to try to double hit RIGHT key, and hit BRAKE at the same time u hit the 2 time the RIGHT key.
    The car wil slide and the obstacle its overtaken the best way.

    :: :: :: :: :: ::

    Lesson 4 - Multi Sliding



    Multi Sliding

    I will show how to perform multi sliding, which is a very usefull tool and ability.
    As you can see by demonstration, this track has 2 turns, and the second turn has
    a very tight angle to drive.
    After you have made proper approach to the first turn ( going left) start turning right
    and hit the brake just a moment after going right. You are now already sliding on
    the first turn and getting closer to the hard corner. Thats when you press BRAKE key
    again and you will see the car's tail giving a little kick to left and prepare itself positioning for the last turn. The GAS and RIGHT key will be pressed all time during sliding.

    You can do as many multisliding as you wish.It dependes on how many times you press BRAKE
    key during the slide. In this situation, double sliding is enough.

    Now remember, dont let the time between the first slide( first brake pressing)
    and the second one be too long, as you will see that the car wont make the second slide at all.
    This happens very often, even when sometimes your car pass by the track margins,
    you can see skidmarks coming from the car, and when car is skidmarking, making drifts over it
    its really not easy.
