Default Drifting

Just accidentally drifted my IS350 today, and I never thought I would say this but drifting is freakin' awesome! I'm actually more into time attack.

Anybody else here drift? Or better yet, has anyone tried drifting with their 2IS? Now if I can only find me a cheap car to drift with.

Have done so with mine. It can be exhiliating as well as an EXPENSIVE lesson to learn if you mess up sooo,,, I do so on Need for Speed Undercover (PS3). Totally tricked out my 2IS and away I go. Lot less expensive if I damage it this way. LOL!!!

You are right I oversteered and the tail started to slide. But it felt like I was drifting. Well it was actually a wet day. I know it gets really expensive because you can always mess up even if you are a pro. But damn it sure is fun though!

I guess I'll just stick with GT4 and Need for Speed.
