Hehe, of course higher speed will be more interesting. But I'm not good (as you can see) at driftning, and specially not with a FWD car. :)
I will not take the risk to crash my car in the snow.

The car sounds too much. This is with the silencer INSERTED...

Drifting in FWD cars defantly takes abit of practice. All you need to know is to give it gas so your back end doesn't move infront of your front end. As soon as you tap the break you'll turn right around. Other than that its just a matter of getting the feeling.

Yeah defanlty true. The first day it snowd I whent into the walmart parking lot and slid around all night. It was a pretty good time. Anyway, i got pretty comfortable with sliding and everything, so theres one corner on my street than there are never any cars parked on (never drift if there are cars on the street) so i just look to make sure nobody comming and let her rip. Usually I can go about 80 degree's around the corner (like....my car is turned 80 degrees more than if it was going normaly around the corner) then let it slide for 3 or 4 more car lenghs almost completely sideways, and then come out of it in the right lane. Beleive it or not, drifting has saved me from getting into accidents durring winter.

Got some more snow today, and I was out doing some more drifting. This time in a medium roundabout. It went much better this time. Really fun when you can controll the slide and let it continue for a few seconds. :D
