Talking snow drifting

does anyone else here ever go snow drifting? when there is snow i always love to go to big parking lots and drift my car and because i only have snow tires up front now and tires with little traction in the rear, the car drifts almost like a RWD car. if i give it gas through a turn the car can completely fishtail and almost do a 360 without using the parking brake at all. today me and my friend with his explorer hit up a local church parking lot and we doing huge drifts. we set up a cone and we were both able to drift around it and do perfect 180s ending up going the other way without stopping. i have almosted perfected the 90 degree turn for turning on to streets, but that is a little harder. and because the car drifts so much, i am going to have to get winter tires for the rear now this weekend because it is not really safe to drive on the road and be fishtailing all over. anyone else like drifting in the snow as much as me?

It's fun, but the ABS kinda ruins it. I still haven't been able to find a big lot when it snows.
