I just got done watching the new F&F moive online and realized that you never really see a 300zx drifting. I wouldnt either...crashing my car would be my last idea... not taking the chance. Anyway are they good drifting cars?

anyone that want to watch some parts of the F&F moive here you go

nico does have a section devoted to drifting, that being said

drifting is about exceding the limits of an automoble and controlling it , this means to defeat what the manufacturer did, on the Z they had sophisticaed suspension, wide tires and LSD which all comes together to provide the most in traction,

when drifting you want to brake traction, so you have a stiffer LSD or even a spool, harder tires that will break traction easier and not melt, and stiff suspension that rather than complying to the surface to hold maximum g's snaps loose so that you can drift,

don't get me wrong I enjoy hanging the tail end out in spirited driving, but in my opinion it's not a sport, and the scoring system can not be quantified
