Re: Drifting the R? (sackdz)
Sharp turn, brake hard, jab handbrake...I don't know about the stock tires though
Maybe with the help with a tighten rear with strut towers in the trunk. My car always oversteer abit on big U in AutoX.

Re: Drifting the R? (itr501)
My car likes to drift through the carousel at Sebring. It's a sharp collapsing turn I take at about 70 mph. I have Yoko a032r which are not totally sticky so I do a 4 wheel drift through the turn for about a split second. I run with a 4 pt rollbar and a rear strut bar so my car is nice and stiff. On any turn I can cut the wheel a little sharper than usual and the rear end will side out. Simply beautiful

Re: Drifting the R? (rs)
I do a lot of drifting. Through high-speed turns, just get on the gas, and then lift. The entire car just drives more or less sideways and is easily controllable by a quick jerk of the wheel and getting back on the gas. Just don't brake

Re: Drifting the R? (George Knighton)
I have only had the ITR on two tracks; however, on both tracks there have been turns that you'd have to lift momentarily to point the nose in. It's just the fastest way to get around those particular corners.
This is a "quick rotation" and I'm not sure it qualifies as a "drift" in your mind.
Honestly, I think if you're "drifting" for more than 0.75 seconds, you are probably not getting around the corner as quickly as you should.

Re: Drifting the R? (Black R)
Just take your car to deal gab and if you can't get a drift going there you probably can't do it. Because if you run it fast enough you will def drift but be careful because it's about 1,700+ drop below if you go off the road.

Re: Drifting the R? (Racer-X)
Me and my buddy went drifting in a local mall parking lot one time. It has just rained and there were a fair amount of water still on the pavement. We got into wild drifts and a couple 360 spins...LoL
then some jerk called the cops. what a jerk...

Re: Drifting the R? (ILOVERACING)
With my 600lb springs in front and 800lb spring in rear if I lift off the throttle quickly through a turn it will oversteer really badly.I am sure from the outside it looks like a drift.
