Some of you may have heard of the "Big Freeze" over here in the UK and the English have ground to a halt. However up here in Scotland we just happen to have loads of big car parks which are frozen over - instant fun!
Been sliding and drifting all over them - it's been insane fun and everytime I go out a see a newish car stuck in snow
. My 16 year old car? Not been stuck once
Wouldn't recommend it in Bens car but my GPX tip is perfect for it

And here I was, all wound up after reading the thread title, about to call someone a f@#kwit because you can't drift a front wheel drive car

Old roadworks signs are better, last longer and you can use them on concrete
tried with my old magna on a mates property

Lolz. I managed to get a couple of complete curcits of the car park sideways with the handbrake on. An FTO would be awesome with drive to the rear.
Now all trains cancelled so I might be out practising again today

Swear I've seen asains drifting fwd cars on youtube they just handbrake
I think the back wheels would end up square
Also I think there's this stuff you can spray your wheels with and makes them slippery ( spray the back and have some fun )

I've seen an FWD drift team but it's not half as impresive as watching RWD on full lock..

Its not really drifting then is it. It's more like skidding
