perhaps, but ive seen it don b4, ive actually done it before, basically you use a combination of understeering and e-braking to slide just right, you wont get as much speed that you would in a rwd car but it can be done. remember, in a mazda nothing is impossible...besides flying......zoomzoom!!!

it cannot be done....when you slide like that you are just dragging the rear end sideways...that is NOT drifting...the primary function of drifting is that the rear tires are breaking traction

Your enthusiasm is great man, but I have seen some of your posts. You have a lot to learn.

Suggestion: Do some searching for different info on here, and sit back and ask good questions. I guarantee the long time members will teach you a lot.

Just PLEASE do not spread false information as truth.

here's some real basics for you

Fast and the Furious - BAD

Nopi Tunervision - BAD

Pimp My Ride - BAD

Octane Booster, Vortex or Turbonator, E-RAM Electric Supercharger, E BAY POWER CHIP, - ALL BAD

drifting is drifting, if you can get your car around a corner while sliding at an angle then presto we gotta drifter...maybe not a good one but one none the less

thank you! im not talking about freekin fast and furious crap where u do literally impossible crap, im talking sliding about a corner, even if u are "dragging your butt" its the only way to take turns at higher speeds. I may have misunderstood ure definition of drifting compared to mine but thats wut im taking about

by my guest, wear flat spots in your tires and call it drifting.

bottom line is people who attempt to drift in a fwd cars are the teeny bopper ricers

Wait, do you actually think that drifting is faster than Regular grip driving?

Im not gonna be using my expensive sports tires just to pretty much ruin them, we have some hand-me-downs, basically we just enjoy sliding around, then when we are done, go back to my garage, get the impact drill, replace them with the good ones. I dont know wut ure deal is ure always trying to make people look stupid, and u do a decent job but its very rude. Ide appreciate it if u would back off man.
