Yes reverie rake is having the front higher than the rear. Clutch kick works best of initiating in my opinion. It won't scrub your speed like handbrake does. If the first corner is a 90 degree turn or a hairpin and you have a good amoun of run up, I would use handbrake on the straight coming up to the corner to set the angle.
Anything between like 50-75mph, I initiate 3rd. Higher or lower uses different gear. You want mid 3rd for clutch kick. If you're redline in 3rd and you're gonna clutchkick, I would just upshift again and then handbrake in 4th and drop down to 3rd

Thanks dude!
When you guys talk about reverse rake, do you mean raise my front coils so it's slightly higher at the front than the rear?
Yeah I experimented with some third gear hand brake entries over that weekend. The issue I was having was every time I entered a corner I was washing off too much speed/revs and I ended up bogging down. The only way I could get around it was to enter the corner at say 100 or 110 so after hand braking I still had the revs up in the range you need them to spin the tyres.
This method was both good and bad. It was good when you got the entry right because you could definitely hold the drift for much longer and it felt a lot easier on the car.
However if you messed up the entry or run out of lock, which as we all know is very easy in these cars, you're coming off the track sideways at 90 in a brand new, heavily lowered car. For me that was zero funs.
I didn't ever think to initiatevia a clutch kick? I would do them here and there to spike the revs up but never as an entry method.
I know it depends on the corner but what sort of speed/revs are you taking corners in third with a clutch kick entry?
Yeah this is something I really need to practice. Should come a bit easier as I get more time on the track.
Thanks a lot. Appreciate all your advice!
