Any of you ever try this? There's a ton of videos of people on youtube who are like "duhhh here we go... *proceed to fail miserably* ..yep well it didn't work out so it must not be possible"
All these shits try it once and blow it off, meanwhile Takumi practices for 5 years when we see him first. Anyone been at it for a long time / long enough to see improvement or judge if it's really impossible?

You are going to have to explain to me what you are even talking about
He's talking about performing an enema while driving. It takes a lot of practice and you hold the contents in a cup.
>goes on Veeky Forums
>doesn't know dagumis autistic weight shifting
Nice trips
The idea is that keeping the cup in your car from spilling while drifting will make you a better drifter. Although it takes years to get this right.
Sideways G-forces are higher than what the limit is for the cup to hold the water. It's physically bound to fail.
Even just keeping the water in the cup while racing. I figured anyone who has this much practice might be able to do the whole enema thing or know if it's even possible. I just hate seeing all these people blowing off the cup thing all together because it doesn't work for them the first time they try it.
wtf man.
Isn't inertia drifting achieved by creating enough Gs to lose grip?
You all are some autistic motherfuckers
The water in the cup thing is impossible outside of a fucking cartoon
you could be the best driver in the world and still it wouldn't be possible here - the roads are too fucked up
How does it feel being the slowest kid in every class you've ever been in?
Please, savant, do explain how I am wrong.
believe in the heart of the cards
Not wrong, slow. Eventually even an idiot can understand why the sky is blue.
Theoretically he could clutch kick perfectly to initiate the drift and minimize the centrifugal force in the turn but if he was supernaturally skilled at doing that it doesn't add up the way people werr terrified riding with him
The trick is not to look at the water.. but to still see the water.
2deep4me..
Its like lookin at the burd instead of the road in 2fadt2furious.
Maybe you people should just put a bag of grocieries on the passenger seat to begin with..
The idea b3ing that as lomg as you have awarwness of it..
You will drive with it in mind.
Wow cant spell foe toffee.
...also that feel when all your rival seem to have taken you.
You're supposed to start with a glass that's almost empty.
>Veeky Forums unironically believes cartoons are real
He only uses the cup because he was driving too fast and it was damaging the tofu. So before the cup he was running top speed. The cup is meant to slow him down, but Takumi doesn't like being bored so he finds a way.
Every single one of you fuckers that believe you can professionally drift without spilling water is fucking retarded and should kill yourselves. It's simple physics what is going to happen
easy, go drifting on an ice rink. done, where is my money?
the breakaway g's for your tires are much higher than the sidewalls are tall for your cup.
That depends on how much water you put in the cup or how tall your cup is. In the cartoon it's exaggerated.
But, for example, if you calculated how many g's it takes to break traction of your tires, and the maximum amount of water that can be in the cup before it starts spilling at that g's, supposedly if you didn't go over that limit you wouldn't spill water.
Is this bait
is that way weeb, just becuase "muh Veeky Forums is a animu website" maybe true doesn't mean us chads will put up with it.
>a board where people think explosive German doritos can power cars believes animated Mongolian TV shows are based in truth
Gee man I'm so surprised
Are you retarded? It's a fucking cartoon, it's not possible. The roads are too shitty to have no any kind of bumps bumps, the car is a shitbox that vibrates constantly, the g force affects it at every turn. Jesus you are just as bad as /x/

keiichi tsuchiya loves initial D
and doe some of the stuff from it
or tries to. saw it before, can't find it with a wuick google because i don't speak nip
saw him do the duct tape drifting too
The cup is for not fucking up the tofu. He got so fast downhill because he drove home as fast as possible.
Doesn't explain him bringing back a full cup of water to his dad though. nigga probably had a bottle of water with him
Keichi is very dehydrated.
It annoyed me that the water was way more detailed in Stage 1 rather than in newer stages.
sigh
Racist scum gb2.
It is physically impossible to not experience G force when cornering. The most basic definition of cornering is changing the direction and speed of motion, which is the definition of acceleration AKA G force.
Acceleration equals change in velocity over change in time. Velocity V must change from X mph one way to X mph T degrees in a different direction in exactly S seconds, meaning A = XsinT/S. In other words, the only physically possible way to decrease cornering acceleration for a specific angle is to either increase time (take longer to make the turn, by using a wider arc) or decrease speed. If you're on the ideal racing line, you can only take the turn as fast as whatever G force the car can handle.
The entire challenge of cornering in racing, always and forever, since the very invention of roads, has been to maximize the amount of sideways acceleration a vehicle can handle. Wider tires, lower center of mass, stiffer suspension, weight shifting, everything is for the purpose of handling the inevitable reality that unless you're using alien technology to manipulate gravity to pull your car into the turn you MUST deal with sideways acceleration. Even drifting is only a different way of enacting the same change in velocity, spinning the tires to push against the road and accelerate in the desired direction.
The only way to keep water in the cup despite these forces is to constantly have the cup oriented so that the G force is down into the cup rather than sideways, which if the cupholder is static means banking the entire vehicle into the turn like an airplane. Unless dagumi is capable of shifting the weight so proficiently that he can lift 3 wheels off the ground and use the incredibly unaerodynamic AE86 like a huge parachute to catch the wind and sail around the corner, the water is going to spill.
>it doesn't add up the way people werr terrified riding with him
It's because he can rotate the water. Even if you go hard one way, if you go hard another way, and another way, it rotates the water, keeping it from spilling.
The water cup was for
1. Preserving tofu for resort delivery
2. Teaching load-shift principles while working the gearbox
That is all.
I do it sometimes when I go out driving like a nut, but if I slide around a single corner it usually spills.
But a better question is why isn't the sky purple?
ok friendo
I never be spilling muh water.
Kill yourself at once friendo
Also oc i made pls no steal
there is a small ball inside a slight dish on the bonnet
I put a travel mug of coffee on my passenger seat, standing up so as not to spill, and then forgot it was there and drove to work. When I pulled into the parking lot it was still standing up. It was one of the old ones where the lid just kind of rotates closed and still leaks if the coffee touches it, and there was nothing physically stopping the cup from tipping except gravity. I guess you could say I'm bretty gud.
The most g-forces are exerted on the driver/water when you retain grip through a corner. The car wants to move one direction but the friction between the tires and road is preventing it. The car is mostly a rigid structure, so the momentum pulling you towards the outside of the turn is transferred to the contents of the car instead.
When a car is drifting, you (and the water) experience less g-forces (compared to a normal cornering maneuver) because the car itself is allowed to move in the direction momentum is dictating.
The part where you would spill the water is the beginning, before you've lost traction, at the moment when the lateral Gs are highest and force the tires to let go. So the trick to not spilling is to start the drift extremely smoothly with less lateral Gs. So you have to make your rear wheels lose traction due to forward/backward momentum rather than lateral. But you can't jostle the car when you do it, or the water will spill towards the front or back of the cup. So you need to perform an inhumanly precise clutch kick, or just powering over. But Takumi's car doesn't have the HP for powering over, so we can assume he's really good with the clutch. "Don't spill the cup of water" was originally a meme tactic for teaching stupid teenagers how to use the clutch properly in normal driving, so this supports Takumi's mastery of the 3rd pedal.
After that, if you never fully regain traction again through consecutive drifts, you could probably continue to not spill.
This guy's problem is not starting the drifts smoothly enough. He doesn't have the speed going into the turn because he doesn't fully understand the physics at work, and he's being too cautious. You can see in the video though, that I'm correct. When he turns with traction the water goes higher than during his drifts.
>This guy's problem is not starting the drifts smoothly enough.
Post a video of someone doing this fabled smooth drifting then.
I'd imagine if you put the cup of water in one of those overpowered gymkhana cars, it actually wouldn't move that much because they drift constantly and lose traction with ease just by stepping on the gas. Finding someone who can do it the clutch way is a whole different ball game.
it could be done with smaller tires and a very smooth surface
They don't have to be bicycle wheels, just cheap commuter tires.
shut the fuck up about this pedophile named takumi no one wants to hear about him.
fucking pedophils and their obsessions with japanese child porn god.
This is pretty close. His cupholder is shitty and absorbs a little bit of the force by tipping, but it's still very smooth drifting. The only spills were harsh braking or bumps.
i dont even watch initial d and i could tell from the gif that its that old challenge of moving a cup of water from one place to another without spilling any, but as fast as possible
you might have participated in a footrace as a kid where you had to hold an egg on a spoon in your mouth, or maybe were just given a cup of water, its the same concept
anyway its probably LITERALLY impossible to drift like that with how cars sway around when attempting to go sideways
his tires are bald
live axle is shit
>Takumi practices for 5 years
takumi isnt real lol
Any decent car and driver corner and brake at over 1G.
Your question is.
Can you tip over a cup without spilling any water.
The answer is no fucktard.
Real life doesn't work that way.
You might as well argue about how Goku pleaded with all the life on Earth to make a Spirit Bomb, so you should be able to a really small one as well.
You could try to minimize the amount of acceleration experienced in any direction, but that just means you're not changing speed quickly, which means you're going slow as fuck.
Nigger you don't understand, you'll generate enough g-force to spill the water just by changing direction. It doesn't matter how "smooth" you are you have to change direction rapidly to win a race with corners, and that will spill it
you are arguing with some 12 year old weeaboo you know that right?
Not an argument.
We should try to plead to Earth to help keep the cup upright, I think it could work.
you are trying to teach him basic physics and he is in the 6th grade and probably autistic, is that better?
>"Don't spill the cup of water" was originally a meme tactic for teaching stupid teenagers how to use the clutch properly in normal driving,
This, also adequately replaced by seasick childrens in the back seat, produce groceries laying unsecured. or toll money on the dashboard
YOU JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW SURFACE TENSION WORKS
Actually I think part of the point in the show was that he needed to drive slower while he had tofu in the back, so it not meant to be done while actually racing. Racing down the mountain, he no longer had the water cup.
Dude in the show he claimed that he could drift without spilling which is utterly ridiculous.
