According to WikiHow, Car Drift defines as: a driving technique and a motor sport where a car slides at an angle, with its side moving in the direction of the turn.
To do the drift you need to: 1. Set up a cone in the middle of a safe area of tarmac. Drive up to the cone and rip the handbrake in an attempt to do a 180 degree handbrake turn. Practice this until you are no more, and no less than 180 degrees from when you started.
2. Learn how to counter-steer by ripping the handbrake from a speed of 30-40mph (anything less will cause an inadequate amount of momentum to get you around the cone) and trying to control the car to a destination until the car stops.
3. Increase speed of each of these things until you are comfortable
4. Try to do the 180 cone too
You would have other consideration such as using front wheel drive car or rear wheel drive car; clutch kick techniques, hand brake technique and so on.
It is becoming a sport in Singapore and getting popular.
But personally, I do not enjoy it. I rather watch a car stunt show than this. No offence to the car drifters. : )
