first you buy a spare set of tires, then you....

i try not to do too much of that sh*t just 'cause i can't afford new tires all the time. but, on "special" occasions, if i've just gone hard into a turn, it's felt like i've got into a nice 4-wheel slide. other than that, experiment with you're e-brake (in a wide open space, of course!)

Yo, go easy, no need to pull that s***.


You could probably tune your car to do it (bald rear tires ), but really hard.

Quickest fix - use the ebrake (wet conditions make it much easier to practice), and yeah, get a spare set of tires if you plan on doing it a lot.

powersliding with the ebrake is the best thing you can do to "drift" a FF car.

if you look online i'm sure there are techniques and how-tos for cornering with FF cars.

Watch an Option 2 video. Plenty of Integras and Civis drifting. I don't know how they do it, but its pretty amazing.

There are, but apparently it's pretty complicated. There was a thread about it a loooong time ago. Maybe a search is in measure...

You're still not power sliding.

oh yeah oh more thing, wtf is an e-brake? (don't flame me also, i'm really afraid that the car will flip into a tumble, and that would ******* SUCK, so will it??

E-brake is emergency brake...

The EK/DC2 are setup to oversteer and that makes them slide happy.

"Emergency" or "Parking" brake... It won't flip, as you should be going pretty slow.

Like mentioned above, if you really want to do this, find a very large, wet parking lot and go to town... Try about 25 MPH, that should be plenty of speed to slide first, the practice controlling the slide.

Yes...you are...drift != powerslide. Powersliding is technically the effect you get w/ fwd cars. Drifting is a controlled turn pushed by the rear wheels.

Here's a pic and a link to add...

Yup, very well put Blown The DC2 Integra and EK9 Civic are a favorite in Option 2 videos when they feature FWD drifting.

emergency brake (hand brake, parking brake, etc.)

And, if FF don't drift, how do FF cars compete in rally races?

 

[kidkorrupt]

so yeah, everyone is helping ya out here.

the best techniques would be powersliding and left foot braking for a FF. do a google search!

i think LFB would be easier to practice and pick up. it involves braking and accelerating at the same time through a corner

i have a very old super street at home that explains drifting pretty well for awd, fwd, and rwd. its like 5-6 years old before initial D created the drifting craze.

Spin that round thing attached to the dash with the cluth in, give the e-brake a good yank, then turn the spinny thing the other way, pop the clutch, gun the throttlle, and steer out appropriatley.
