How do I speed drift in Trackmania Stadium and what do I use it for?
How do I effectively speed drift in Trackmania2 Stadium? I'm looking for this in terms of game mechanics and not what keys/buttons to press.
I'm also wondering how to use speed drifting. When turning a tight corner, is there an advantage or disadvantage to doing this instead of grip driving (not drifting) or letting off the gas? Assume time does not matter here.
Note: speed drifting is different from regular drifting.

How do you speed drift in Trackmania?
As you come closer, start steering into the direction of the turn. You need to steer for roundabout half a second before you can start to drift. To begin sliding, tap the brake while still steering. As soon as each of your tyres paints a separate tyre track on the ground, you're in the drift.How do you drift with Trackmania controller?
To start a speed drift you will want to first build up a decent amount of speed. The faster you are going the longer you will be able to keep the drift going. Then you just sustain it by gently tapping the keyboard. Other than that you will just need to practice it until you get good at it.How to Speed Drift in Trackmania + BONUS CLIP (Summer 2020 - 22 Tutorial)
