R.I.P to all the miata owners out there that brag about how lightweight they are, including myself 💀 He has double the horsepower, and weighs almost 3 times less. 😭
Ride along videos are always fun, but toss in a little driving lesson and it becomes something even better. Today at lunch I passed the garage and turned around in the gravel area and my first thought was, "There's evidence of heavy dune buggy action everywhere!" Great video, as always. It was great to meet you and the guys today- thanks again for your valuable time and allowing me the thrill of the visit!
Love the car setup stuff. Diagnosing issues. That's something I almost never see discussed. I used to know more years ago, but even then there was a lot I still didn't know. And troubleshooting is something I would love to get better at. "What is wrong? And what is the likely cause or fix?"
I mean both Assetto and Forza are simcade… real drifters play LFS… jkjk honestly any practice with a proper wheel, even if it’s Forza horizon, is a pretty good substitute for beginner seat time at a track. As a Miata track day bro, I can say the best investment I ever made wasn’t a torsen lsd or Toyo r888r’s, but actually a g920 and a decent sim setup. Another awesome life hack is going to Dirtfish or Team O’Neil or Chelsea’s School of Drift. You can have the best car setup in the world, but people often seem to forget that driver experience/seat time is often more important than having a better car/setup.
International Merchant Of Hate it translates if the setup is sufficient. You can't play a racing game (simulation-type game) with a handheld controller and jump into a car and expect it to translate.
I self taught myself how to drift for fun on Assetto Corsa, while I haven't done a drift in real life I have done powerslides on accident or taken a corner a little too fast on a winding road and had the rear end start to kick out and knew exactly what to do to correct it, it's a skill that should be taught in driving schools because knowing that has saved me quite a few times
Oh that's what it's called, on the streets of Cleveland, OH the police defined it on my ticket as reckless driving!!! It sure felt perfectly controlled to me?
Casey, serious question? Do you know where I can buy a cage/chassis like that at a reasonable price? I'm going to build a side by side to my specs eventually and I'm just starting to do the research. Thanks.
Love this! I just picked up a cheap dune buggy very similar to this one! Mid engine 1915cc! Couple things needed to get it running right before hitting Glamis!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who does this stuff like we're still kids...I like buggies and sand rails because they're fun and easy to work on Great video Casey
Out in my neck of the woods, the local highway authority is experimenting with a different type of freeway exit(it works if your not an idiot). A brief description, you exit off the freeway, have a 90 degree turn, cross the freeway, traffic light, traffic crosses over to normal traffic flow. When it first opened I kept seeing kids smashed into the barriers, right after the turn. This was happening a lot, one or two not really an issue, when you get to five, six, seven, something is going on here(that was when I was driving by). Kids are trying to drift the turn, but on a highly grippy scored concrete road. I can only say the best time to do that sort of thing is when your young. :)
If you want to use these techniques, go drifting. Some karting places even have karts that drift or a specific night where they make it so that they can.
Why should it end poorly? A poor result is only achieved if you a) aren’t expecting it and b) put yourself into a position where you will either damage yourself/someone else and/or nicer equipment than you are prepared to damage. Just make sure you don’t use a vehicle you’re not prepared to write off and keep speeds low until you have the skill to increase them. Besides, if you look at the wall you will hit it...expecting a negative result greatly increases the chance you will achieve one. Have fun, it’s what cars are all about (or should be)!!
Hey Casey! I'm not even a small-time youtuber, just an autocrosser who shares a lot of your points of view - but I think I could help you make this video even better. I think if we really planned out every step and every shot, we could film an awesome tutorial that really gets into the juicy details of whats going on when drifting; from weight transfer to throttle and brake control, inertia and tire slip angles. And I think we could do it at Michelin's Proving grounds in the morning before an SCCA event. (Or after, maybe.) If that sounds interesting let me know and I'll see who I can talk to to make it happen.
Big point to remember in all of this, you are drifting a RR dunebuggy. Having owned an MR2 and now owning a BRZ, I can see that you use a lot of steering to affect little changes in angle, and to catch the rear end after you hit the throttle. 2 reasons for this, 1) you are hitting the gas to get the rear to step out, but it has a lot of mass behind the driver. This means more grip in the rear, and consequently you are understeering a bunch when you first initiate. However that makes a good point, because the initiation of any drift always involves some understeer. If there were no understeer in a Scandinavian flick, it wouldn't keep the rear tires trending to the outside of the turn. 2) the mass moment of inertia of the car sits far behind the front wheels in an MR and RR car. This changes how RR and MR cars behave vs FR cars. In an RR or MR car (under normal gripping conditions) the steering does a lot more work with less effort than an FR car because the CG is much further back. The torque that the steering can apply to the front of the car relative to the engine placement is much higher than the FR cars where the steering and CG sit much closer. However this means that for a sliding scenario you have to use more steering, because the inertia of the engine in addition to the steering via the tires spinning is also changing the steering angle. So the steering has to do more work in an MR or RR car to achieve the same stability because the engine CG is much further away from the steering axis, so it requires more torque to stabilize the slide. TLDR: Casey understeers a lot, due to the MR/RR setup of the buggy. In an FR car it is much easier to initiate and control the slide. MR is great for track use, but when sliding you have to catch all that weight with the front tires. This makes your slides either really slow, or they have shallower angles compared to FR cars. This is why there are so many pictures of MR2's wrapped around telephone poles. Learn how to slide so you can use it in an emergency.
Edgar Heff I had a Mk2. I could slide it around and do some simple transitions. It did take a fair bit of effort to start sliding and keep sliding if you were trying to slide. If you weren’t trying to slide it had some interesting camber curves and under braking it could start sliding if you didn’t modulate the brakes. It actually made it fun to play around with when you were trying to keep up the speed between corners.
Christian Gotsch youre right I have that same feeling under braking I haven’t gotten to sliding my car around I feel like it’s a bit more tricky to keep sliding and catch than an FR car. I’ve had it tank slap on me pretty scary stuff ha
Honestly. Its a good idea to mess around with any vehicle you own in a SAFE manner. Just to see how it reacts under different conditions and you can learn how to best deal with weird things. For instance. I have a 2004 buick rainier cxl v8 awd. Thing will pretty much hold grip in any situation with good tires, but one year we had an ice storm roll through and the parking lot at work was just a sheet of glass with a metric ton of things i could run into. Went to pull in, it immediately went sideways, but because Id messed around in empty fields and parking lots I knew relatively well how to correct it and straightened it out without freaking out.
Next episode, can we see left to right transition, reverse entries, and full straight line 360s? Loved the video even though I've been drifting for years there is always something to learn!
Thats awesome! Now with the new camera setup you really need to do a motorcycle video with your ducati or top gun build and talk about riding techniques just like the manual transmission videos!
@Casey Putsch With the camera placement, if it was next to your right ear, we would get better vision and maybe it wouldn't hit the bars? Excellent video though! Now I need to rewire my VW buggy and get out in the dirt!
You can drift with a open diff and traction is very important in drifting i have a open diff miata drift car and yes it kinda sucks but i still link turns its all about momentum amd flick you dont need power to party and i run my tires frrom 20 to 50 psi depending on how big the track is
At 12:28 you mentioned that you were going to make another power sliding video. Did you ever make another one? I see a bunch of buggy videos on your channels but I don’t see any others about power sliding.
I feel like people would benefit a lot by learning how to ride a motorcycle before trying advanced stuff in cars. It seems like many of the principles are the same. For example with this video- on the bike you obviously want to be smooth on the throttle, and the last thing you want to do if the rear starts sliding is to snap the throttle off because it will grip and massively upset the bike. A lot of the clutch/throttle action is the same too, and easier to learn on the bike because coordinating them is a bit easier.
13:50 - Hey Casey have you ever had one of your cars corner weighted with the driver onboard? - I think this buggy might benefit from it and be more neutral afterwards. Or maybe try it with a passenger and see if that extra balance sorts it out. Just thinking that the driver is like about 10% extra weight in this buggy but that weight is only on one side and not balanced out.
Do a video on how to use toe plates! I just made some out of wood to adjust my front and rear toe angles a bit after upgrading to adjustable control arms and I had to figure it out myself but once I did I was wondering why they're not a staple in the car enthusiast's garage
and you can use it as a chance to explain toe and camber angles for the road and for the track!! I'd love to hear your opinion on it, especially toe angles for different kinds of motorsport
Funny story about the open diff and low power story. On a downhill gravel corner and 15 yo golf can slide around just fine Also you missed the biggest part of all driving, but especially drifting: always look where you are going, not where you might end up!
I'm sure the front suspension isn't doing you any help with the extreme light weight and stiff springs and then semi normal spring in back with all the weight. Can't weight shift the chassis as well because the suspension doesn't want to.
The buggy isn't optimal for doing what you're doing there, but I love it still. Did you build it, or you bought it? To do these sliding tricks a Miata is great for both show as well as learning.
Very easy to drift in the FR-S. It's light. It's tight. Has an LSD. You can teach yourself in that car and do ok. You can drift 30mi/hr circles pretty easily. Jeremy clarkson wasn't lyin.
@Mr.BigBoss7 dude...... You've never driven an FR-S. You've never driven a Miata. In 05, the Japanese guys were running 200 hp ae86s. Against Vaughn Gitten in his GTO. S15s. RB swapped 350s. You really don't need much power to get started drifting. Definitely don't need 400+ and hydraulic e brakes and shit lol. You just need RWD, a tight chassis and suspension, an LSD, and SOME power. EDIT: idk what you've driven. You probably have driven BRZs and Miatas. You've got your perspective
Probably alot of people out there that don't realise these buggies have been around for decades. I think 'Dune Buggies And Hot VWs' magazine is still around? Air cooled VWs were the original fast4.
I have to disagree with much of what you said here. I used to do this on asphalt with my slammed 1986.5 Toyota Supra. It was an automatic with open differential. It had much lower profile tires in front (so it leaned forward) and very little weight in back because I removed the spare tire. I could crank the wheel from a stop and give it full throttle and it would oversteer and move around easily. The open differential gives you less grip so you don't need much power and the automatic torque converter is much more durable than a manual transmission. I think you lack experience of what a crap car is capable of. It did like to snap oversteer in the rain, so there was that. It was my first car and I had no idea what I was doing.
I don't know why I'm watching this. My parents told me they sold the ATV when I was 9-10 because I was doing exactly that. So I already have the knowledge on how to do that... from being a dangerous kid. Though I don't remember doing all that stuff lol
probably weight-biased because you don't have a passenger. for something that light, a driver sitting down on one side makes it very left-heavy, so maybe the left tires grip harder. it's not an issue on karts since you sit at the middle and not as noticeable in cars because they're heavier
Get you some chain link fence and a couple cement blocks tied to the back of the dune buggy drive around and they'll flatten all your gravel back out and nobody will ever know
Not trying to rain on your parade, but assetto isnt going to completely prepare you for the streets, there are a lot of factors and lessons that assetto just cant teach. Chuck a few figure 8's and donuts before you go to crazy. lol
I was half-watching while multitasking and kept thinking wtf is a toe? Weird dune-buggy speak? I didn’t understand until like the fifth time he said it lmao
1 thing remember you dont need to talk at an increase volume if you have built the mic into the helmet just talk like you are in a studio. RiP Gains XD

International Merchant Of Hate it translates if the setup is sufficient. You can't play a racing game (simulation-type game) with a handheld controller and jump into a car and expect it to translate.
yeah sims are so amazing now, it's surprising how much technique you can build sitting at home with a half decent PC and driving controllers
That's what I've been waiting for! Yessss, thanks Casey

Love this! I just picked up a cheap dune buggy very similar to this one! Mid engine 1915cc! Couple things needed to get it running right before hitting Glamis!
When you live in the Midwest power sliding is learned in the snow or a pasture. Pasture usually before we even have licenses. Lol
Or open parking lots at night
Chad Geary oh yeah! After a rain or even a bit of snow especially!

When things don't go as planned is when you learn the most
Those thin front tires are not very confidence inspiring.
Any plans to swap those out for something that matches those chonky boys in the rear?
nope
Do an aligment video with it
Is that a rwd or fwd?

How badly will this destroy my tires? If I went to a gravel lot and played around like this for an hour.
There would be very minimal wear
You have Dune Buggy - you are Muad-Dib of driftness.
Hell yeah informational & fun
This was great, even when it wasn’t going as planned haha
is Scandinavian flic INERTIA DIRFTTTTT?!!!!
@International Merchant Of Hate ooh NOICE.
INERTIA DRIFFFFFTTTTTTTTT
Need to take the motorcycle tires off the front those rims are probably sized for stock vw tires.
Trust me bro, I've got over 2k hours on assetto corsa I'm ready for the streets. . . . 😆
Not trying to rain on your parade, but assetto isnt going to completely prepare you for the streets, there are a lot of factors and lessons that assetto just cant teach. Chuck a few figure 8's and donuts before you go to crazy. lol
@@Mousyy I think it was sarcasm? maybe not idk
@@nishantganesh4766 probably is now that you mention it lmao
Ok I won’t be using this irl because I don’t own a plot of land but def use this in the simulators
I feel like the lykan body should go on this
Well that's pretty cool!
That looks like fun. I think I’m having a old farts crisis. I’m over 60 and I want one! 😂😂
Awesome
No viper makes me a sad boy 😢😅
“I need to adjust the toe on this”
I was half-watching while multitasking and kept thinking wtf is a toe? Weird dune-buggy speak? I didn’t understand until like the fifth time he said it lmao
It’s basically an adult drift trike
I don’t know why I’m watching this when I own a lifted Toyota truck😂😂
Because it'll drift nicely in snow. 👍
@@rhull3939 well we don’t get too much snow around here, and I don’t want to wrap my car around a tree😂
Trucks are rwd and often have diffs ;)
@@Cal94 well true, and my truck is a 2WD. So I will try it and risk my baby being rolled over
1 thing remember you dont need to talk at an increase volume if you have built the mic into the helmet just talk like you are in a studio. RiP Gains XD
You are under steering because of the diff not locking up
