The CSL's traction control system will let the car get between 15-20 degrees off center before the traction control takes over and makes sure you don't over-cook it.

From my point of view, this means that all you have to do is mash the pedel (no need to actuate it like you would in a "real" drift) and steer the car. So, though his drifts may look perfect and amazing, it's really just the car's electronics letting him work the ass-out so perfectly.

Not that it stil doesn't look sick as hell. I just give the props to BMW and not the driver.

[TC M3]

Repost, I posted a couple of weeks ago. Its a regular M3 with the CSL rims. And the driver is a former racing driver.

I guess his heart still at the track

[Howies]

do CSLs still have that special TC or is there no such thing?

[TC M3]

The Traction control on the CSL reacts later than regular M3's.

Ok then, I guess I'll give that driver some props then

if you like on bmwworld.com (i think that's the addy) they have a writeup on the extent the TC will allow you to drift.
