If you're going to try it, make sure its somewhere that doesn't have little islands or poles. Also you need power to keep the drift. E-brake just powerslides the cars out but then thats when you gotta apply power (gas) in order to make it work. That's one way, the other I believe only works with RWD cars which is to pick up speed then you would press the clutch in and rev like CRAZY! j/k and then drop the clutch then that's how you break traction and then that's when skill comes in, you gotta control the drift by the amount of gas and also the handling. Sounds easy but it reality its hard cause the car wants to go one way but you gotta prevent that. Not sure if you understand what I'm saying but hope it makes sense :-)

flick it the wrong way, then flick it back the right way... *** end slides out. Same process as a powerslide except no ebrake. Also with fwd, if you're not using the ebrake you can't apply as much power, otherwise it would correct itself. Takes a lot of steering, throttle, and brake (both pedal and ebrake) control.

Only in snow. Real drifting is impossible in a FWD car, the mechanics of drifting are simply not compatible with that kind of drivetrain. The most we can do is slide.

it's entirely possible to drift a fwd car..... soft sticky rubber up front, and a very very hard compound in rear. And insane amounts of driver skill. I'll admit it's not as good as RWD, but entirely possible.
