I saw a British dude who could drift a fwd... it was amazing...
back before there was "Drifting", i used to drift my '70 Subaru wagon around freeway onramps and such. it was FWD and had OEM tires (145?) on the rears and something monstrous (185?) on the fronts. i had replaced the original 1.1L engine w/ a 1.4L from a later year and had moved the driver's seat back to accommodate my legs. this meant that w/ a look over my left shoulder i'd be looking out the rear seat window. of course, the rear seat was removed. interesting front brakes, they were inboard drums, big aluminum drums right next to the transaxle. looked a lot like what you'd see in a Porsche 356. that really reduced the unsprung weight in the front.
unfortunately, that Subie was totaled while parked in my driveway, by some drunk in a pickup who took out 3 vehicles in addition to his truck. the Subie was the only 1 capable of moving under it's own power afterwards, even though it had been hit on all 4 corners and spun around/across a brick lined planter by the collection of vehicles the pickup was pushing. of course, it didn't get moved 'til after i rendered first aid to the drunk driver's friend who had been riding in the back of the pickup because he was too drunk (potentially sick) to ride up front.
'twas an interesting night/morning as i had been sound asleep before all the crashing and scraping began.
anyway, to set it up, i'd brake very late for the turn and then use the throttle to modulate the radius. more throttle increased the radius, less introduced more rotation.
