Clutch kick it to hold it out more. Dont let the revs drop to much
Watch these videos
And of course drift bible
Watch them carefully and see what there doing and technique they use. First two video's they use E-brake and clutch kicking

Thank you! And no prob i support the rx8 drift community. Just think prople who drift should post up there set ups.And help each other out. The rx8 isnt the easiest car to kick out sideways.

well i have some friends with na fc' s drifting really good. They run small tire widths and keep the revs. my goal is to drift two events here on east coast. I'm thinkin of running 215/40s all around with some negative camber all around.

I wish coilovers weren't so pricey for the 8, I've purchased race set ups for other cars used $400 . Well I'm starting a good job in July so hopefully all the good stuff will follow.

Sounds good have you changed the suspension? My next mod gonna need is a kaaz 2 way or tomei t trax 2 way. Heard both good. I just dont know about the oil change at 3k miles it gets pricey

Is the fuel pump kicking on? Is it flooded? Might of flood on your atempt to start it on the first time. Check your coil packs and spark plug wires. Worst come to worst fuel pump or coils. Buy a spark tester.

It depends on how serious you are about drifting but, the car is much easier to get sideways with the car stripped. Especially with light weight buckets.
