What makes a drifting car?

Most importantly it has to be RW

In essence any RWD car can drift. It is up to the drivers skills whether it can get it to drift. Some cars will drift easier than others but you as the driver are the decisive factor. However the easiest way to go by is to simply buy a popular drifting car; it's not for nothing that it's popular for drifting!D! (rear-wheel-drive)

It's not that 4WD, AWD or FWD vehicle cannot drift, it's just that drifting other drivetrain layouts is quite a different ballgame. It's best to stick to RWD, because you need to balance the rear with the throttle.

But that's not all when it comes to choosing your car. Besides personal taste also the price, power-to-weight ratio, upgrade possibilities, parts availability and fuel consumption are all very important details.

Today we're going to talk a little about drift technique.

For someone who has never been sideways in acar before, the first drift experience isunforgettable. But before you go hit the cornersat full speed and wreck your car, try theseeasy practice techniques.Find a big open place, I recommend a "skid pan"or "skid pad" at your local circuit and have somefun dropping the clutch and spinning the tire.Then, to get some control and be able to directyour car where you want while drifting, put downsome pilons or cones. First, just with 1 singlecone, do donuts around it. Start of going clock-wise, then change and go anti-clockwise. Do smalldonuts and then do bigger onesWhen you've got the donuts down, put one morepilon down and practice doing figure 8's. Thiswill help you get good at drift transitions(changing directions while drifting or "fish-tailing").They are some basic skills you need before yougo flat out and damage your car.
