People call me the "Drift King" ( ) hahah but for real if you wanna drift get a big ass parking lot and then all you have to do is drive straight when V-tech is about to engage upset the car by turning the wheel all the way to one side then it is depending on how fast of a handler you are to keep the drift going...I have a video of me drifting kinda dark to see a lot but I do a full circle as a drift IDK just me bring stupid anyways have fun do it only a few times tires go down BADDDD! Another way is to press the clutch in while in a turn rev it up and dump that clutch and there she goes round and round...Or you can launch the car from about 6500 RPM with the wheel turned one way all the way and enjoy drifting from there...

Drifting is common (for some riders) in motorcycle road racing. Since the drift occurs when the rider carries more speed into the corner than the tires can handle to maintain grip, what come with the drift is often a relatively higher entrance speed. The trick is to carry the transition from slip to grip with as much of the additional speed as posssible through the exit of the turn. Drifting on two wheels is a "special" feeling.

Drifting on four wheels on a public road is asking for trouble given the constant opportunity for changes in road conditions or other obstacles (as in other cars, shopping carts or deer). Sticking with the parking lot scene is a good idea, IMHO.

easy just stomp gas and tires lites up and then turn wheel. or wait, we aren't talking about high performance cars but the S. in that case just upset the chassis and then maybe you'll get lucky.
