kinda hard to steer a drift with powerless backtires.
lol...it's actually easy, turn wheel sharply in one direction and lock the e-brake....watch the car slide as you use the front wheels to pull u through it and the weight of the car keep the rear wheels sliding. But! this is not DRIFTING! it is merely holding and e-brake to make a front-drive car slide through turns...

still, an e-brake doesnt power your backwheels. if your gonna do a real drift theres no ebrake involved. You power the slide with the steering and power of the backwheels or all 4. Cant powercontrol a drift with your front wheels.

i know...and that's what i shall demonstrate in my video....no ebrake, powerslide drifts using rear-wheel power only. and perhaps a demonstration of 4x4 drifting (loads of fun, trust me, but it's kinda hard to get the rear loose sometimes... because the fronts are pulling as well....)

currently shot some footage tonight, and will be shootin more when there is more snow tomorrow! hopefully will have 8-10 minutes of good stuff. (lol, i got caught by cops, but they let me go, wtf? made us shut off camera and delete anything we recorded of him, due to his job being at risk.) but will have footage edited for tuesday hopefully....
If I remember correctly... To enter a drift correctly your supposed to use the E-brake but then let it off once the car is traveling somewhat horizontally? I saw it in Toyko drift so maybe I am wrong?
As for me. I was in a tightly cramped parking lot as is shown by me almost swiping the hummer. With all the snow we've been getting its touch to find a dry parking lot or road for that matter. I am working on it though.

lol, tokyo drift. ebraking is for beginners, u should watch the drift bible, I did too =P It's 71 minutes, but hey, it helps.

there is different ways of drifting, mostly having to use the ebrake comes to those with a car who doesnt have enough power to get into a slide and keep it steady while fast traveling.

this is true, and it's kinda a pain for ME to use the ebrake anyway. it's a pedal on the left, with a realease just above it, so it's kinda tricky to work....and besides, i have no rear brakes left, so they don't lock up very well.
