Actually you CAN drift a front wheel drive car, BUT it's not called drifting it's called powersliding. Me and my friend took our cars and learned how to do it in the snow and then we got really good at it and then tried it on dry pavement, we got really good and we got props for knowing how to do it without causing over steer or fish tailing, but now I have my new supra and I will have to learn how to do it all over again. I have to say though, it was really hillarious watching all these guys try to "drift" their little ford escorts and other 4 cyl cars. I did however see a 1994 RX7 Turbo drift around a turn, VERY NICELY, I might add, but then get pulled over because he was stupid and slid right in front of an undercover cop car...

speaking of powersliding...whats fun to do is find a FWD car and go get some trays from taco bell or mcdonalds and put the trays under the back tires of the FWD car and take off in a parking lot or somewhere open.

i think its sweet cuz you can do 180s and 270s and sometimes 360s without a problem

when i had my supra i was goin to get some food around 1 or 2 AM i find myself cuttin through a big parking lot, it was empty no cops around. i stop and turn down the radio and listen to the engine to see what she wants. She wanted a figure 8 badly... i start from a 20mph roll shift in neutral and rev and shift in D and pulled a nice figure 8 it has a lil tail though but still nice, and that figure 8 is still in that parking lot today its a lil faded but u can see it. when i pulled up to the mcdonald's window to pay for my food the worker said she smelled burning rubber. i told her to look over at the parking lot and she saw it. she gave me a free double cheese burger

exactly, you cant drift with a fwd

while connecting drifts without straightening out

not to argue with you, but fwd cars cant drift

I know you cant "DRIFT" a FWD car, but there is a class for FWD cars...but you have to put a lot of money into them to make them powerful enough to keep them going...

thats what you call getting up to 45 cutting to the left and back to the right real quick to make the back end come out.
and of course when you do taht your gonna get some sort of drift acttion.

lets see him go around a course or a big C turn with the back end still out without a high speed start
