    TV mode set your shutter to 1/125 or about that,You can go as low as 1/60 but you gotta be good at panning,

    The main part is praticing the panning part of it

    So as I anderstand, set the camera to shutter priority, set the speed to 1/125 - 1/60, ISO as appropriate.

    Is it better to shoot in RAW or JPEG?

    I'd keep well away from 1/60 until you've did a few drifting events,Jpegs would be fine really will give you more buffer too.

    This is a 1/60 pan best shot of 7 i think(doing about 25mph)

    This is 1/20(doing about 15 mph)

    Drift cars go far quick so i'd stay keep it at 1/125

    I did 1/50th on my first attempt :p

    TV mode is the way to go. On a day like today I was shooting ISO 50.
