I'm no expert but I don't think it's wise to drift an AWD vehicle. Most if not all of the Formula D cars you see are RWD.

The only time I see an AWD vehicle drifting is when the road is wet with snow or rain water. Don't quote me on that though.

Check it out at the 6:30 mark. Its an evo fq360. So all you need is 360hp+ to drift it (powerslide). In terms of doing it a sst.....idk.

Lol sure you can do it, but these guys do not own or maintain the cars after the drive them. All they do is test them, and then they are done. What I mean is they don't have enough time with the car to understand the damage they are causing.

Buy a 240 if you want to drift.

Not sure about the X's, but the VIII's and IX's were pretty easy to get sideways when pushing it. Regardless the cars not made for it. If you want a drift car buy a drift car. The Evo's in no way made for it. Not enough steering angle, its AWD, etc.
