"Welcome back. We're this time going to be in a mid power FR car. This is a three-fifty Z. I find that it's very well balanced and easy to control. And, a good place to learn how to really drift more horsepower. So, in a car like this you have to be careful about your entry speed. Because, you will be going a lot faster than you were in the Z four. So, make sure you just control your speed into a corner. And, balance it out with throttle and steering and you should be able to drift these cars beautifully. Let's go up to this fast section and we'll run our shift lock here. So, in a car like this you really have to be careful about your throttle inputs because they make the biggest difference when you have your horsepower. So, let's go through and maybe you can see the difference between the Z four and this car. You notice we're going a lot faster brake lock earlier, just to be safe. Just to control your speed through a corner. You notice how I'm feathering the throttle a lot more. That's just because this car has more power to give. And, the more power you have the more the back end is going to be squirming around on you. So, you just want to be careful and control it. So, get used to these mid power cars. Like I said, you want to use weight shift. Same thing as you learned in the cappuccino. But, you're just trying to be concentrating a lot more on your throttle input because it does change the altitude of the car a lot more than it did in the Z three. In the Z four, I'm sorry. So, let's get another lap in and maybe you can see even more difference. Pay attention to how I feather the throttle.Whoops! I'd say a little too much steering. So, let's try and get this long corner nice and clean. Like I said, you have to control your entry speed. So, don't be afraid to slow down. And, there we go. That was nice and clean. Here we go up to this fast corner again. This time, I'm just going to lift off. And, this corner is going to be a little thing. All the gas. And, there you go. This is mid power FR car. It's pretty much the basics in what you need to really start drifting big. So, practice it. Get used to the feeling of getting the back out with more horsepower. And, you guys too will be drifting nice and smooth transitions. And, pretty much this is a do it all drift car perfectly balanced. So, once you get a hang of drifting use this car a lot you'll get a hang of drifting even more. And, let's try and do that last corner for you. This long sweeper. Remember, keep your speed under control as you enter the corner. And, just balance it out with throttle and steering and you guys will be fine."
