The slowest possible way of taking a corner in auto racing. Many people think it is the fastest, but they are just retarded ricers. Drifting is a show and not a race.
Dude, that guy with the body kit and huge wing just drifted that corner, he must be a good road racer!!

That awkward guy who deserves lead but sits around with a sub and drops subtle sex jokes
Person 1: HOLE IN ONE
Person 2: That's what she said
Person 1: Quit being a Drift

Braking and rapidly accelerating your vehicle, usually in a ricer, to break grip and drift. People think that's cool. All it is is figure skating for cars. As worthless as burnouts, but not as entertaining
look at me! I'm drifting.
BAM
Slams into something very hard. Car is totaled, driver in critical condition.

Front-drive cars do drift; the rear wheels will break and swind around, but at that point you're at the mercy of the road. VW Beetles don't do it so well, not cause they don't have power, but all the weight's on the back.
A idiot in a Honda Civic got his car to drift, he's dead now.

Its an entertaining show aikn to Dukes of Hazzard on crack..
"Beau pass the crack pipe I need a hit", said Luke
Beau passes the crack pipe to Luke, and Luke begins to take a hit.
While Luke is heating up the glass pipe, Roscoe pulls up behind and flips the lights. Beau immediately starts the Charger, punches it, and begins his drifting through Hazzard County cracked out of his mind. As the General Lee's entry speed is way to quick for the corners the back end steps out.

Complex Driving Technique used to take corners at fast speed. The driver must know how to used the clutch and gas pedal effectively and precisely while manipulating the brakes at the same time.

Its the complete opposite, its when you shift the weight from the rear to the front causing less traction to the rear, wich allows more wheel spin, and with proper turning and accel, you can drift.
I was going 4th on a stright then Heel-toed into 2nd and drifted in and out of this tight hairpin.
