@isamu: I have played Outrun 2 on PSP and yeah, The drifting is similar.

I haven't played that game but the drifting is like nothing I've seen before from Nadeo. It's a bit like sliding in Stadium, except much more accessible. You just have to tap the back arrow key (using keyboard) before turning to initiate it... you also don't seem to lose any speed while drifting - as opposed to being something you want to avoid, like in TMU, it's a way to make tight turns with a car that would otherwise make huge, sweeping arcs. Unless you decide to put a ninety degree hairpin after a red booster, you can make pretty much any corner with a little drift

You do lose speed but not as much to give a disadvantage

Yeah, it would've really been opposite to physic laws, so a car should at least slow down minimally.

fair enough
It's a lot more fun to do than in TM1, though

Yep, after the betas the fantastic unrealism in the game is more seen than ever.

OMFG that sounds almost exactly the way the drifts behave in OR2/Ridge Racer! I hope my intuition is correct becasue I am egtting MEGA excited!!!!!!!!!
