Heres my advise to anyone that wants to drift. Be smart about were and how u do it. Dont just floor it and pull the e-brake while going around the corner. Thats not really a drift becuse a drift is a controled slide. I have a friend that was a dumb *** and put his 240sx into a guard rail trying to drift. If your going to try and drift do it in a wide open parking lot late at night where no one or thing is around that u might hit if u loose control. Then once u get really good then you can try a little more risky things. When your still learning dont be a fool and do something dumb like a.)kill yourself b.)kll someone else c.)wreck your car or d.) all of the above
Im not trying to put anyone down or dash your dreams but i also dont want someone to go out and do something dumb because they read or saw someone do a drift and they thought "hey that dosent look that hard i can proble do that" So just be smart and sorry if i was preaching to you guys i dont want anyone to get hurt or smash up their car like my friend did.

i have a video of an old school civic (silver one) doing some serious drifting. its not the video posted above. its longer than that. if someone wants to host it, its about 4mb in size.

if you notice during different point during the "drift" he hit the ebrake to stun the rear from sliding out, notice his wheels catching at some point thats why it was sliding outwards, and the point still stands it more difficult to drift in an FF

personally i would stick to grip driving while in an FF
