yupz i've heard of the d-box. have not tried it and don't think i will. personally i think it's much better to go w/o the d-box, it will be harder for sure but i reckon you'll have more control on your car. d-box is for cheaters ;D?

I personally feel that using it in the long run will insulate one from the real basics of drifting, which defeats the challenge of 'trying over and over again' to go sideways.

It brings you into drifting easily and helps you to countersteer even when you didnt...haha So it seemed to stabilize drifting cos alot of newcomers keep spinning out... But training is much better den using D-Box, At least you feel the fun of it  |

Having tried both Drift Tyres and PVCs, my verdict is that I would still go with the latter. Main reason being that I started to drift becos I always thought it was more of an artform than anything else. The extremely long drifts achievable through PVCs are levels above what can be attained from using Drift Tyres in terms of gracefulness, although much slower. So unless you are into speed, give them PVCs a chance will yah? But I do admit, using Drift Tyres sometimes can be fun  |
