Video summary

In this BeamNG.drive video, Evil Rabbit takes on a challenging drift exhibition scenario that requires players to accumulate between 12,000 and 20,000 points while navigating tight walls without crashing. The episode begins with the creator attempting the challenge using various vehicles, starting with a car equipped with an eight-cylinder engine but quickly encountering difficulties due to poor steering feedback and insufficient grip compared to larger body cars. Despite initial struggles where he fails multiple times by spinning out or hitting obstacles, he notes that these specific BeamNG drift challenges are particularly tough because the game's physics do not always behave as expected for experienced drivers. The difficulty is compounded by issues with sequential gearboxes causing unexpected behavior during shifts and wheel chatter leading to unintended spins, highlighting how even minor mechanical details can derail a run in this simulation. As the video progresses, Evil Rabbit experiments with different strategies to maintain his drift multiplier, which is crucial for reaching the high score targets required for three stars. He discovers that staying in a continuous drift state is essential because losing momentum or failing to engage handbrake effectively causes him to drop points rapidly. There are several moments of near-success where he manages to keep the car sliding through corners but ultimately crashes due to timing errors with gear changes or clutch usage, such as one instance where hitting 1300 points leaves only a small margin before failure. The creator admits that his skills in this specific challenge are currently lacking and makes excuses for poor performance by blaming vehicle size and incorrect gear ratios rather than acknowledging the steep learning curve involved in mastering these drifting mechanics within the game's physics engine. After numerous failed attempts involving crashes, low point counts like 7300 or 1800 clean car scores that fall short of requirements, he finally finds a rhythm by utilizing handbrakes to maintain momentum and accepting imperfections like dirty cars if it means keeping his multiplier high enough. The turning point comes when he successfully completes the course with an eighteen thousand point score on a clean run, securing all three stars despite not being perfect throughout the entire process. He concludes that while these challenges are frustrating because they often feel rigged by the game's unpredictable handling characteristics, completing them is incredibly rewarding and something he rarely achieves in his gameplay sessions. The video ends with him reflecting on how much fun it was to drift a large V8 vehicle at high speeds before signing off after another intense session of trial and error that ultimately resulted in victory.

hello everybody I'm evil rabbit continuing on with beam and G we do have a couple uh scenarios and this is a drift Exposition or exped drift exibition and apparently we got to either get 12,000 16,000 or 20,000 points drift big brick angle close the walls don't know what car we're going to be using but we're going to go full set make sure you guys follow me on all social media around description box below let's get into it [Music] all right we got [Applause] [Music] V8 line messed up third [Applause] gear let car way oh jeez don't crash that was a crash this car has way uh way less steering feedback than that big body car the wayless grip uh we're going to go give that another try this is a lot harder than I thought these BMG drift challenges I found have actually been quite challenging for me because the cars don't really handle how I want them to so is this is this a sequential might be a sequential gearbox and that's why it's kind of screwing me we're going to try this a little bit [Applause] more zeis with the steering [Applause] oh no well do not oh okay that wheel chatter is definitely getting me spun out but I didn't die only got, 1300 1300 M left until we're done and we're nowhere near this [Applause] challenge how are we supposed to drift a straight line well I guess I could be monging this whole track but my uh skills here in being or not that great except for right there that was nice gear transition quick nice CH oh I was hoping not to crash oh we killed the car and we only have 1100 points oh man this is a this is a challenge I'm just curious if we can do it with uh the v8 car the one that I was doing in the last episode curiosity is going to hopefully not not kill the cat but [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] see what [Music] happens this car may be too big for this wrong gear ratio probably too or just all over the place I'm making excuses for the fact that I just suck at this challenge right now [Applause] I mean we have more points than we did in the other [Music] one oh I didn't get on the clutch soon enough see I think my problem is I'm not staying drifting long enough and I'm losing the multiplier [Music] maybe no no not maybe so we only got man we only got 7300 we are going to retry it or 7100 and this time we're going to try and Link everything and kind of stay in drift even if we got to use the e not off to a great [Applause] start so if you guys want to keep seeing beam challenges here let me know down in the comments gently out of the pits so now we're kind of keeping the uh multiplayer [Music] [Applause] going going utilize the ebre and kind of M you the straight that timer does not let you go very long before it runs [Music] out like this is our best oh I wouldn't have failed my gear [Applause] [Music] change who would have failed the gear change oh maybe we're just going to be short 11 oh we needed 12 oh one more try we wouldn't have came we wouldn't ground the gears into Forest we would have had that we got this this time fourth or fifth times charm I've L [Music] track got stay kind of drifting going utilize the out [Music] here we got to utilize hand breake kind of keep [Music] momentum they don't care if you're on handbrake they count it [Music] oh I think we just screwed the clean car no we got to keep it though we got to keep our multiplier that's going to make or break us [Music] today I keep that five times multiplier I don't care if we don't have a clean car it's long as we got the high multipli we should be good 18,000 clean car we got all three stars I'm going to take that one as a win make sure you guys follow me on all social media found in the description box below if I continue from here are we just going to die Oh I thought it was going to keep us sliding so that's going to do it here for this episode here on BeamNG little drift challenge that we were able to complete three stars which is super exciting cuz I don't normally ever complete these challenges W tap I meant to do that so I like thank you guys for coming back and watching another episode here on the channel I'm evil rabbit I'm enjoying drifting this big V on this track high speed entry for final I'll see you guys on the track oh we're [Music] dead oh beam and G [Music]
