General Car Related Discussion.To discuss anything that is related to cars and automotive technology that doesnt naturally fit into another forum catagory.
I still think that provoking controlled lift off oversteer (or tugging the handbrake) in a FWD car can still be classed as drifting. It's not as sexy or as socially acceptable as doing it in a RWD machine, but it's still technically drifting in my book.

Sign up to driftworks and have that discussion mate, you'll never be bored again, they'll entertain you for hours
Im not particuarly amazing at drifting (as in the RWD sense) or lift off oversteer/handbraking, but can certainly just about do both, and there are a vast number of similarities in terms of the steering input required to do both, so its a very transferrable set of skills, but there are also differences as well.

I think a discussion on the difference between how a car slides as fwd or rwd is moderately interesting.
anyway, im sure we all agree its great driving whatever its called, no arguments about that which ive seen in the thread yet

Wouldnt know mate, I find it hard to tell if people are replying pissed off or perfectly happy like I am myself, the written word is often lousy at showing emotions.

Fuck it, let's just call it driving it like he stole it and have done with it.
