That is the special thing about drifting, due to its nature its about the only thing thats nigh on impossible to improve your handling via electronic aids. You can either drive, or you cant.
And using anything at all like that would totally defy the point, remove the fun factor, and turn it in to some internet forum willy waving competition like all other modified car stuff, rather than how it is now, where you prove your skills or STFU. |
you are overestimating the complexity of drifting if you really believe that, it would be perfectly possible to build a computer that controlled all the controls totally and drifted perfectly ever time, human beings arent as advanced as you are giving them credit for.
Would be a dull business being in one as a "driver" when you were basically just a passenger though.
And the same "it ruins it" applies to all electronic aids when driving to a certain extent anyway IMHO, ABS or TC or LC etc, all detract from the skill needed.
Doesnt stop it being an interesting problem to solve from an electronics point of view though, either to solve totally or to just add aids that allow you to learn more easily.
