Our cars have front wheel drive but it dont mean we cant drift with them.... i do it all the time, i cant help it... if u havn't tried it, go try it right now !!! use E-brake ... its kinda dangerious tho so be careful.... :cool2:

Yeah I do it in the snow so it won't ruin my ebrake. And when I drive my Prelude (94 Si) it fishtails on its own b/c the back end is so light. My friends didn't believe me and they saw I wasn't trying to fishtail and it was whipping the back end around corners. I love that car. I used the ebrake drift once on it b/c I actually needed to or I would hit a curb. It was another great drift moment that saved some damage.
In my accord I drifted for about 25-30 feet sideways around this turn and I made the turn perfect. I was like damn that was like right out of a rally race that I watch. My g/f was like you fu*ker don't you ever do sh*t like that with me in the car ever again!!!
You are not drifting. You are ass-dragging. There is a difference.
You know what? Who gives a crap it's fun as hell. Thank you rain, for coming to our parade!

yeah, FWD drifting is nothing compaired to real drifting. hell yeah friends RX-7.
"Eat, Drink, and be Merry!"
Hell yea, a RWD V8 with a LSD is the way to drift.
FWD is just ass dragging.

Guys I think everyone knows that FWD's ass drag. But for those of us that don't have the perfect drift car, we can use ebrakes to have fun.
Set your suspension up right and you don't have to rely on the ebrake to get the ass to come around. 3gees, just like just about every other car on the road, are setup to under steer when things get too hot. Keeps grandma from wraping the car around a tree when she gets a little over zealous behind the wheel.

Go do a "drift" search on ebay...
U don't always have to use the E Brake to put the car into a drift. Theirs quite a few ways to get it done.
Clutch Kicking while loading your suspension works really great if your in your powerband. Did it today as a matter of fact.
Feinting is loading your suspension. You sway the opposite side then wheel towards the turn hard and mash gas or clutch kick it.
Choku Dori's which are like wild for FWD because after the first set of them wheel control tends to get super sketchy no matter who you are.
But like its been said, you can't knock it, its hella fun, if done right it works out just like a drift only shorter and most of them don't work into such an aggressive angle around the turn.
u can always try in reveres
well, reverse drifting would be a project... and damn near impossible.... ever try driving backwards and turning your wheel real hard? BAD idea, only do it if you want to roll your car.
Besides, our engines' don't put out enough power to burn out in reverse like you would do in drifting... only maybe in the snow.
My question, how would you correct the oversteer of drifting in reverse without being able to turn your rear wheels? It just doesn't work!
Drifting is fun, but if you don't know what your doing and pull the E-brake, you can really put some wear on your e-brake cable, and even possibly make it snap. Bottom link, E-brake = bad idea
LFB is the way to go, but much harder to master, i've got to get some practice in on that this winter when i find an empty parking lot.

actualy....dumbasses....
FWD drifting is the hardest of professional drifting. because it involves serious breaking techniques, suspension work and ebrake manipulation.
any tool can pull the ebrake and slide around a corner....especialy in the snow i do it all the time.....but pro FWD drifting is serious buisness.

You could always go with some blizzaks up front and some all seasons in the back. Put the fronts to about 30psi and the rears at 40, and see what happens.
I did a little "Drifting" this week end at while autocrossing but not because i was trying to since it resulted in a spin twice and one of those to times i think i spun around at least one and a half times. But it is still fun when you can break trackion in the rear with out using the brakes or e-brake on a set of azenises. If you look close you can see all the rubber being thrown up in a cloud.

thank you for actually having some knowledge about this business. a drift is a controlled slide that you can recover from without the car coming to a stop (or crashing) it doesn't matter what your drivetrain is.
i hear tons of snotty kids who think they're hot shit because they have a 240 or an 86 talk shit about front wheel drive. the fact of the matter is they don't have the skills to pull off an FF drift.
sorry, ranting. that's been bottled up for a while and it all came out at once
isnt there already a thread on drifting, im sure there is cause i think i posted in it, or mabye my posts just got removed from this one, aha

whats RWD then...Dick pushing?
lol
Drifting is considered power sliding, your spinning the back tires to lose traction
Ass-dragging is when the back end gets pulled around.
Both of which are considered a drift, because ask yourself this "Is the car going in a straight line?" no its drifting around a corner.
That kinda relates aswell, with FWD an unintentional drift would be straying away from your pathdrift ( P ) Pronunciation Key (drft)
v. drift·ed, drift·ing, drifts
v. intr.
To be carried along by currents of air or water: a balloon drifting eastward; as the wreckage drifted toward shore.
To proceed or move unhurriedly and smoothly: drifting among the party guests.
To move leisurely or sporadically from place to place, especially without purpose or regular employment: a day laborer, drifting from town to town.
To wander from a set course or point of attention; stray.
To vary from or oscillate randomly about a fixed setting, position, or mode of operation.
To be piled up in banks or heaps by the force of a current: snow drifting to five feet.

sorry FF'sust dont drift its lame and useless i got my 93 240sx fastback for that and ebrake is easy thats the 1st skill any RWD drifter learns b4 the ebrake becomes a thing of the past. FF drift is just lame e-braking and power sliding no real throttle control...throttle control= great drifts thats where the skill is envolved!!!
Your girl likes it when i go faster
