Car drifting and leaving smokes in The Crew Motorfest

Ivory Tower have made a good overhaul to the drift physics for The Crew Motorfest, but you’ll still need to tweak a few settings to get the most out of it. So, here are all the best drift settings in The Crew Motorfest.

Seeing your cars rut the roads of the tropical paradise as their rear effortlessly drifts sideways, leaving skid marks on the road in The Crew Motorfest is satisfying. More so than previous games in the series, as The Crew Motorfest has leaned heavily towards proper physics and handling rather than just scale.

It still has a learning curve, and while some base controller settings will help you by making cars more responsive, you’ll still need to keep some drift settings in check to master the discipline. Especially if you’re after world records in The Crew Motorfest. 

So, here are all the best controller settings for The Crew Motorfest.
