Introduction

For those of you who are new to drifting:

Drifting is a driving technique where the driver intentionally oversteers, causing loss of traction in the rear wheels, while maintaining control from entry to exit of a corner. A car is drifting when the rear slip angle is greater than the front slip angle, to such an extent that often the front wheels are pointing in the opposite direction to the turn (e.g. car is turning left, wheels are pointed right or vice versa).


Do what you do everyday; whether it is going to collage or to your daily job. Traffic can really be a pain in the butt... But guess what, from 2:00AM to 4:00AM the streets are yours, especially when there are barely any cops to bug you around.
Usually, drift cars are light to moderate weight rear-wheel-drive coupes and sedans over a large range of power levels. There have also been AWD rally cars that have been converted to RWD.
