Although handling is really important, from my experience, I find that getting a car to get loose is usually the bigger challenge on some cars, so if you can get it sideways, you can drift I guess.. the only trick is to keep it sideways..

..but anywho, were you possibly watching D1? The judges are usually biased, I must admit. What Japanese anime/manga/story have you ever heard of, where it has the underdog lose? Haha, you know exactly what I mean!

That it was. It was D1. I don't watch anime, but in my thinking I would think the judging would be more skewed to the japanese considering the judges are japanese.
