OK I get it. Drifting is not "4 wheel drifting", but is "intentionally applied throttle induced oversteer" and reminds me of a typical rallye style driver.
I'm all for it and am going to practice this very thing next time out on a track. Well, maybe not the actual "next" time, but soon. I borrowed a tape of the RUF turbo 911 at the Nurburgring and he is "drifting" quite well. No not as fast as Derek Bell in a 956, but looked like fun to me and I want to try it, mainly to scare the $hit out of my contemporaries with boiling tyres and side window "big-eyes" whilst they may happen to be near me. ( I'm trying to sound British, it's working for some of the other guys..).
On second thought,first I may put a mouse in a Budweiser can, and stomp the can into the concrete, as a test of how I might fare if things go awry.
