Drifting.... - Page 3

Okay guys... it is impossible to drift a FWD car.  The whole idea is to get the car to fish-tail out, steer into the side, step on the gas, and regulate it with the E-brake.  Since a FWD pulls the rear, you can not get the rear tires to lose grip and fish-tail out.  You may be able to get the whole car to spin out but onlu by using the E-brake if you have ABS Braking.

As I had previously stated. But lengthier... Gary. Were past that now, lol.

+1 For ron and his cookie...ENJOY

Way past that point....of no return

actually, my friend has a perfectly balanced integra, and at the autocross, he actually sometimes can get his car into a drift, no jokes.  If you like FF drifting, get a fatty rear sway bar

it would still not be drifting techniacally lol remember ass sliding<drifting.

Thats OK Jeff. But thats not drifting... thats just loss of traction in the rear... not caused by power.

one of my freinds has a 2001 hyundai elantra FWD and hes pretty good at drifting with it (and no mods werre made) but occasionally he f***s up its pretty fun watchin the person in the back seat being flung around lol

really^ i drive a 2001 elantra every single day...and its a piece...anyhow its still not drifting. 

X2 Dave... lol, WELL put.

i think we should develop a term for this "fwd drifting" so that ppl dont' get bitched out anymore.  this is one of the stupidest things i've ever heard about arguing about!

Every time Ive ever seen this brought up, I.E.- Club3g.com and eclipseforums... theres a big debate about it... that usually ends up with everyone fighting over it. PS- I think problems will arise by calling it "FWD Drifting"... Its non existant...Sorta like... "FWD Wheelies" Get what I mean?

lets drift...lol

nobody on this forum can drift lol... except john w/ his 2.  and jeffisdecent w/ his dotsun when he's done.  other than that i think we all have eitehr fwd or awd.

you can drift an AWD car
 
There already is a term for FWD drifting. Its called e-brake sliding. And thats all ive ever called it

AWD can dri... Damn it... TE beat me once again. lol

it can? when i saw 3FTokyo Drift i thought so also until i found out that EVO was RWD.

Sure they can... especially with an unequal balance of power leaning towards the rear end.

hold up there is in fact a mitsu car that could be used for drifting...its called the starion:)

dude I can get my Evo pretty sideways as it is now.   and when FOG took me for a ride when he was on the 50trim in 1st he stood on it and all through 1st and 2nd the car was sideways.
 
AWD can most certainly drift it just takes more power to hold it sideways
