Drifting is basially loss of traction at all 4 wheels. The cult term "Drifting" is maintaining that. When it happens on a FWD car... it's almost always understeer. As far as "drifting" goes... go post about your FWD drifting exploits on a drifting webboard and you'll see what I mean. People are annoyed to death. I hear drift stories from ricers all day long. It goes like this... "Hey, is that your hachi roku?" I reply, "That's my Corolla." Then they ask, "Do you drift?" I answer, "No... I race." They say, "Man, you should drift... drifting is awesome. You should see my Civic/Integra/Neon/Focus/etc... Drift!"... Then I chuckle and leave them in their disillusion. I'll assure you... getting a FWD car to go into a controlled drift is all about the e-brake and the rear will only slide for a second or so before it corrects. As far as initial D goes... just mentioning that makes you one of those guys trying to get in on the fad. FYI... most cars need to have a bit of power before controlled drifting can be done. Being underpowered hurts you there also. Anyway, none of the FWD cars in Initial D ever drifted. I'm not saying a FWD car can't slide its tail or drift as in lose traction at all 4 wheels... I'm just saying... don't play it off like you're Takumi or something... just because it's the new cool thing to do. FWD can't do the "drift" as referred to in a cult term... but they can do the drift (like all other cars) like loss of traction in 4 wheels...

On another note: The drifting fad is only gonna get bigger. My cousin just traded his stock 91 240sx for a nearly mint condition 94 Civic Hatchback with a B16A swap. Basically, he traded a 240 that's worth roughly 2000.00 for a Civic hatch that can be estimated at around 4000-5000 dollars... EVERYONE is trying to get in on the drifting scene now. Since AE86 Corollas are difficult to find and typically expensive... they buy the 240s... heh...
