Chernobyl, I think I've learned a few things on the touge that I haven't been able to learn on the track. First off, typically there are more elevation changes on the touge than on a track. For uphill, you need to take in mad speed and use lots of throttle to change angle mid drift. For downhill, you take less speed and use more steering work to keep yourself on the road and proceed to throttle out. I don't think I would be able to learn that stuff at any of the tracks around here that are available for drifting. Like I said before, I think touge teaches a person to be more consistant than at a track. No margin for error means that you have to be extremely focused on what you are doing. You can learn that on a track for sure but probably not to the same extent as being on a narrow windy road.
