Great video! Thanks for sharing Always wondered how those drift lessons where given

The key in my opinion is to find the balance where you have a "stabile frequency" feathering the the gas and only make small adjustments with the wheel from a fixed point matching the angle of the car. From that point you can go wider by more throttle and balance with more opposite lock with the wheel, or move to closer circle drift by reducing power and steering a little more into the middle. But in the end its all about training a lot and gaining experience, you have to be able to anticipate what will happen before it does, when something has happened its often too late.
