whada bunch of f*cktards. i really don't see what's so funny about that.

if you do this on wet pavement even if you have fwd you can drift if you know what your doing, but just yanking the e.brake for a 10mph 90degree slide to a stop is just idiotic.

I would love for him to crash into the camera man.

I've done that with my 3rd gen in an empty lot when my stock steelies. I had just purchased my 350z rims at that time with new tires, thought I would abuse the old tires a bit :p

With that said, the guy in the video totally pussied out. I got my car to 60 and did a full 180. I then did some reverse donuts :p

Moral, if you are going to do something stupid, do it right or else you just look like a poser.

FF drifting can be donehttp://youtube.com/watch?v=EFUegaEibwE

a 4dr civic once won a drift competition here in hawaii; his chokudoris wasn't that great, but he'd come into turn 1 really fast and got crazy sidewards.

But what the hell is the point? That slows you down more than anything. You're just dragging the rear wheels in the turn.

The whole point of drifting, btw, is not to be fast. Taking the course with a good line and good brake/throttle control is much faster than drifting.
