In a front wheel drive it is a power slide.. at least thats what we call it in dubuque. If its rwd then you can say drift. being that us fwd people cant just kick our *** out with our huge power house its a little different than drifting. specailly when you need to pull the e-brake to do it.

first off all your going to do is flip that bitch into a ditch and probaly kill your passenger and put yourself in a wheelcar. second off your asking for settings for a drifting, track, yet comfortable setting. That would be the magical retard setting ... oh wait i forgot they discountied that setting because people where flipping there car into ditches. doh !

disconnect your front sway bar, put your rear shocks on full stiff, front on full soft.

on second thought: save a car, end yourself

try putting the setting on 1 in front...and 4 in the rear.

do dynamic drifting.....this is where you enter a corner a little hot...lift off the throttle hard and turn the car hard....tap the brake and your drifting.


DO not do this on a small corner with other cars...try this in a parking lot first with no one around. I have drifted my lude plenty of times doing this.

Why is it that every post you make, its some insanely retarded question or answer?? What is the point of you "drifting" around corners on the street ???????? See how many people you can impress?? how many cars you can take out in the process of killing yourself ? get better at running over waves of people standing in a straight line ? im really confused here. Please, let me know when you enter a drift event with your lude, or go to an auto-x track to just "drift" and tell me what they say or what happens.

People arent ********, its just you being a fucktard. Why do you think there are no drifting posts on a honda message board???? How about you ask some relavent tech related questions, and people wont take a flame thrower to your ***.

Holy **** that was one of the craziest and most wreckless videos i have ever seen. To the drifters movement, hopefully sooner or later they will all kill themselves.

HAHA. Yeah, that's a good idea.
Hell, after I took my 240 out last night to drift in the rain (I live in a business park with HUGE open parking lots) I wanted to try it in the Lude. I just didn't have the heart to. I like my Prelude too much to do stuff like that in it.

I wonder how many people are GOING TO die in the US because of this drifting craze??

it's not worth trying to make a Prelude a "drifting" car. FWD is not the ideal platform, you'll just be wasting money and time.

If you're gonna do it at all, do it right with a RWD car. Oversteer is your drifting friend and it is easier for a RWD car to do. But drifting in reality is pretty useless haha.
