Drifting techniques are to be initiated in two different ways depending on whether you have a front wheel drive or a rear wheel drive car. The first drifting technique is, depress the clutch and gear down into second gear while approaching a corner or bend, and rev the engine to about 4000-5000 RPM. While you come up, slightly turn the steering wheel so you feel like the car is going away from the corner. Then cut back towards it while releasing the clutch at the same time causing the rear wheels to spin. Basically it is a burnout. At this point you should feel a loss of traction in your tires which will give your car a hydroplane effect while you begin sliding around the curve. Don’t let the drift go because this is the source of momentum to take on the next corner. Don’t release your foot from the accelerator as you control your car, keeping it from spinning out as you approach the next turn. Now cut your steering wheel in the direction of the turn so that your car will powerslide right through it. If you feel you came out of your first drift too slow and that you have started to regain traction, just pop the clutch again to get your wheels spinning.
The second technique is used by some drifters in rear-wheel-drives, but it is supposed to be the only way to really drift a front-wheel-drive. You have to use the side/hand brake. A front wheel drive car cannot whip its tail out because the tires are being driven in the front. So, when approaching a turn/bend you should pull the side brake until you get a feeling like your car is loosing tire traction. And the rest is very much the same as in the first method, except that it’s much harder to take more than one turn with a front wheel drive car. This is because using the hand brake will slow down your car.
