Reverse drift advice

How many reverse drifts do the top level players in Mario Kart PC make a second to achieve going faster than even high level racers? I'm currently the 440th ranked player in VS mode and I now use Daisy stats for my characters, and for me, it seems like I need to reverse drift 4-5 times a second just to maintain second place when I'm paired with players with 30K or more VR.
Edit: I should've clarified this sooner, but I am usually a visual learner so video examples would also help a lot.

My advice: as soon as the mini-turbo turns yellow, release the turbo.

Well, I hate to break it to ya, but you're gonna need to Rd all the time in order to beat better players. If you don't Rd well, using Rd will actually make you slower than somebody who's driving like a CPU.
If it helps, there's rhythm to it. Work incrementally, don't hold reverse for too long, barely at all on straightaways, and get a feel for the super mini turbo's timing. Just grinding out the specific techniques, you'll learn it easily, and it'll basically become a part of your playstyle instinctively.

The straightways are my biggest problem with reverse drifting, I can't idenfity the fastest way to consistently build up my mini turbo on a straightway that keeps me going straight while also not sacrificing speed. It feels like I need to do it frame perfectly just to get a reverse drift on a straightway. If that's the case, then I'm gonna have to sacrifice FPS quality from 60 all the way to 15 just to get a chance to git gud.

Hold the back button for as long as you don't. while it's better to stay consistent, you don't need to, if you notice you're going a little sharper than you should've, hold the back button for slightly longer.

15Fps is recommended, actually. That's what I do. Proudster also uses 15 at times, but only bc of his performance issues. Honestly, starting on 15 can give you a better idea of the timing on a really basic and crude level. If you play scratch mkpc, you can learn AAA mkpc.
