videos like the one in the first pic is why our insurance is high!
s**t drivers being hero's

 

[Greeny.]

Infernos one is quality, decent driver

 

[JCC]

Not once does the tail end step out in that first video?

Oh and drifting is the same as powersliding, something not possible in a fwd car. So no clio could do it anyway?

 

[Adey.]

drifting can be done in any car in which all 4 wheels are slidihng in a direction opposed to there rotational travel, if you watch drifters (rwd) they slide but at the point of all 4 wheels sliding are they then actually drifting

I've always understood powersliding (drifting) to be using the power to keep the car in a controlled slide. Surely in a fwd car the only way the tail can step out is through lift off oversteer or using the handbrake, and the slide cannot be held using the power through the front wheels?

Other people may see it differently though

 

[Adey.]

powersliding and drifting are 2 different things, i should go on a little, powersliding is a technique within drifting also referd to as power oversteer, but not all cars can do that as they dont have the power, (ae86) other ways in which to initiate a drift can be used, the feint is a common one even used by jean ragnotti (look him up, legend) or clutch kicking in a rwd car, the effect is still the same tho, to drift (slide) the car in a controlled manor by loosing traction or grip to the rear wheels and thus having the car held in a controlled slide

 

[DannyR]

Clio's oversteer, completly different thing to drifting! RWD's drift, hence the Evo in TFATF3 was converted as 4wd didn't cut it!

The first 2 videos were just handbrake turns, usually for novas, fiestas and corsa etc....
Plus they were doing it in broad day light!

I bet Steve-o's clio could drift though

Oh and MR2's pile of s**t to drift, weight distribution is all wrong!

 

[Mr J Cake]

i could drift more on a mobility cart

 

[ace-media]

Wow, some serious talent there

I can see why a rollcage was installed!

You can do it in a fwd car, lift off oversteer. Some journo did a guide on how to do it proper on a video recently in a 197 cup but I cant find the vid. Ill look later for you.

However, the morons in the above videos really deserve to smash the cars up. I hope it happens.
