THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE YOU DRIFT A S550 MUSTANG!!!!!!

- Mustangs are VERY easy to drive & drift once you know how to disable all the nanny features. The steering is different from most cars, so I understand how most people may not get the hang of drifting the mustangs that have electric powersteering, so easily. The cars steering behaves almost identically to my old Thrustmaster T150 & TMX I used for racing games. The Mustang is extremely fun to drive in my opinion. It has more than enough power, it's very quick and handles very well for a heavy muscle car. I highly recommend these cars to anyone but drive them with caution because they can get loose on you in a heartbeat.

Definitely noticed that. Somewhat experienced drifter but god mustangs love to spin out. You have to tend to it carefully.
Yeah just takes learning the car mostly. After you’re used to it, it’s a breeze for the most part
Great video
Every mustang owner should know this
Thanks man and faaaaacts, it’ll save a lot of people
Good video, well explained especially the part about car control and learning your car. Most important part in my mind. Thanks for tips. Drive safe.
Thanks, and driver mod is always the key
@@tagallstarhey quick question. When you say the traction control system isn't fully disabled, is that even when you disable the entire thing by holding it down longer? I can't remember exactly how it worked, but I thought you had to hold the switch for like 5-10 seconds in order to fully disable it. Does that still leave some of the safety functions enabled even though it disables traction and stability?
In my S197 it's the same thing,I hold it down and it fully disables, but I'm curious if there's still some times that it engages.
@@Greatest_Scott yes it still has stability control on thats why you must unplug the stuff under the hood
@@Greatest_Scott even after you hold the button for 10sec, the stability control will turn on when it detects high wheel speed relative to your ground speed. Which isn’t good if you are trying to drift
So underrated 🔥🔥
Great info! Straight to business, thank you sir !
Thanks and you’re welcome 🙏🏾🔥🔥
Fire vid and good slides
Thanks more to come🔥🔥
Excellent video! man, thank you for it, can't wait for my s550 to arrive, I sold my z34 just because I never had a V8, but I will use it for drift as well.
Niiiice bro, I plan to add some suspension mods to the car very soon to help it drift much better. It's an excellent car in my opinion
@@tagallstar hell yeah!!! I will stay tone, and keep you update con my car delivery 😁👌
Good vid bruh, definitely touched on alot of good topics that people getting these cars dont understand and wreck they shit tryna manji some bs like they in a 350z!!! Dont forget everybody, the s550 stock "lsd" is absolute shit as well and does not help aid the steering at all either so id suggest a welded, 1.5 or 2 way diff if you really plan on doing ALOT of skids in your s550 it will help get SOME.....ONLY SOME of that og self sterring feel back that most of us are used to in a drift car. You are still gonna have to work the wheel no matter what the setup is but alot of little things like the upgraded diff i mentioned and modded knuckles help you work alot less behind the wheel and make the car more enjoyable/tolerable to drift.
Thanks for the info fr my G🔥🔥🔥🔥
I will say the 5.0 having very little torque is a big reason too why people tend to crash them. Unllike a camaro, challenger, corvette, or turbo car with big wide power bands, the 5.0 engine only makes enough power to break traction very high up in the rpm 4.5k+. Because of this, if you are just below that rpm range (say 3-3.5k) and you try to kick the back end out, there will be a slight delay where the engine bogs, then kicks into the power band which upsets the car and is unpredictable. This high RPM power band is also an issue because your wheel speed is therfore 2x that required to break traction as in an SS or 392. This means when the car does hook back up if you try to roll your burnout, donut, or drift into a takeoff, the car will hook up much more quickly and aggressively. So if you're wheel isn't stragiht, it's going to cut off sideways pretty hard. Of every sports car I've drive, the Mustang is definitely the touchiest when trying to initiate drifts, donuts, etc but its the tradeoff you have to make for an engine that's so satisfying to rev out.
Well said bro, that is 100% true, I have those struggles with my car bogging down anywhere below 4k. Kinda reminds me of having a turbo car. But aye I love hearing it sing after a few clutch kicks
I agree, reason I crashed learning how to drift was because my car didn't have enough power to predictably break traction.
@@henrismith7472 Srry to here that bro, you all good??
@@tagallstar Yeah, nothing serious. Hit a tree, wasn't going fast enough to hurt myself. This was years and years ago.
@@henrismith7472 thank God for that 😀
Very informative video!
Now the next thing to deal with... the price!
Lol ikr it’s ridiculous rn
Sport+, Traction Off, Comfort steering... all you need in life
Unfortunately u can’t use sport + and have everything disabled
@tagallstar ill be honest, in my case for the best, im not taking it to shows. My 5.0 is for catching traffic lights and beating traffic, so im okay working with the car to scare the shit out of everyone else near by.... its not that bad, i dont push it, before in my Honda Civic and Ecoboost yea, like dangerously push it
@@luis_industries nothing wrong with that bro 😎 have all the fun im with it🔥🔥🔥🔥
you hard bro😂
Thanks man
I drove a couple, they fun af
Faaacts i love this thing
damm, I'm so scared for buying a mustang now lol, will definitely get to a big parking lot to get the feel of it before driving +40 miles on the city
Lol you are fine, believe it or not, most newer cars have this traction control issue, the 350z & 370z require you to cut wires and do other stuff to disable traction control fully, there’s many cars with that issue because they aren’t supposed to drift from factory. Just be safe and get comfortable with your car. And most importantly have fun
Cool video!!
Thanks babygirl
If I choose to take out the fuse do I need to unplug the sensor as well? Do I also loose power steering if I just take out the fuse and keep the sensor plugged in? Also last dumb question once I remove the fuse or unplug the sensor I wouldn't have to keep turning traction off correct?
I haven’t tried pulling the fuse but you’ll still have power steering, you’ll just loose abs of course. I’m actually not sure if you have to still unplug the plug if you also pull the fuse, I’ve done some more research and it seems that everyone only unplug the sensor and remove the fuse if they are removing abs all together. When you unplug the sensor it automatically turns off traction control, and stability control for as long as it is unplugged. Thanks for asking man, I hope I was able to help
Bro can you help me out please, Ive been saving up for the 2021 Manuel Mach 1 because Ive been wanting a mustang for a long time and I heard it had the tremmec transmission. Do all of these tips also help with the Mach 1? Thank you so much.
Yessir it helps with all modern Mustangs 100%
@@tagallstar thx I really really appreciate it 👏
@@carlosnavarro2487 no problem man, have fun with your new mach 1 and be safe
Yeah that stability control comes in all fords it looks like soo this is a ford safety thing
Yessir, I’ve seen several other vehicles with similar things where you have to cut wires and stuff but the Ford version seems to be lil dramatic with how it tries to “”help you””
So you completely left out the most important parts. First you need to get yourself a Dodge Challenger Scat Pack, Hellcat or Demon, preferably a Widebody because they come with the adaptive suspension. Carefully remove the body from the chassis (you will need it later after you wreck your mustang). Carefully remove your mustang body from it's chassis if you haven't wrecked it already. Now, try to get that mustang body on the Challenger chassis and hope the wiring harness has an adapter, then go wreck.....I mean drift your car and try not to damage the chassis because you will need to put that Challenger body back on it. You are very welcome.
Funny but no 😂😂😂
Shifter link?
What about a shifter link? Are you asking about one of my shift knobs?
@@tagallstar lol yeah like the link to your shifter? Ive seen you have multiple ones though. But been watching all of your videos as i wasnt sure if i wanted to continue with an S550 build. The steering makes me question it still.
@@SLlPPP my shift knobs came from ebay, such as my blue dragon ball knob and my gt350 knob. I don’t have any links for it and my current knob is a RTR knob. Thanks for watching I really appreciate it man. It all depends on what you want in a drift car. Every car has areas that can be improved upon and can be fixed with mods. Honestly getting used to the steering isn’t hard and if your can master it, you’ll have an easier time drifting other cars. I say that not because this car is necessarily hard but because this car forces you to learn how to adapt to it’s steering in many situations you might be in while driving. I personally love the S550 and the steering doesn’t bother me because I literally drove on the sim with gaming wheels that had barely any self steer. Just evaluate which car will potentially be the best chassis for your driving style and what you want. Have fun with it
@@tagallstar yeah see im used to more of a snap like an S chassis. I saw you play on AC. I do as well on my downtime and on the off seasons. You ever thought about adjusting the caster for quicker centering? Unsure if that would help with the S550 setup.
@@SLlPPP niice we could get some tandems on AC. Yeah I apparently having high caster helps a lot. I haven’t upgraded the car to adjust caster yet. But I’ll have a much needed mod on the car very soon. Yeah s-chassis’s are snappy. Believe it or not the stang is very snappy as well, but it has a lot of weight so you have to be prepared to catch it. The S197 and S550’s have the same or similar wheelbase to the e36 and e46 and that’s probably why they are so snappy. My buddies say an angle kit is a cheat code on the s550. What car do you drift now?
Or yah say seen that been there done that. Drive normal drifting is over rated, rarely needed & OVER done….. 🤣🤣🤣
Everyone has their thing
@@tagallstar everyone has that “ THING “ is too often too much over kill nothing unique or different. I thought humans, were all about progress & growth? My bad 😞 some still eat fast food, shop @ wal mart & use the N word. What was I thinking humans want better? 😱🤣💯🫡
