Just to clear up some things, I've watched PLENTY of Initial D, and also seeing quite a bit of drifting in person as well, myself. Let me tell you, between the real thing, and seeing it in an anime, it's quite a bit different. Not nearly as easy as people think it is. it's hard to explain really, but seeing it in person is WAY awesome! Below is a pic I took of this one 240SX (S13) at the RS*R Drift show that was near me in Irwindale back in April. I'm also planning to go to D1 Grand Prix Aug. 31st, and I heard some crazy cars will be drifting in that event. I'll be extra sure to snap any of any FF drifters that may happen to show up. I have myself seen some FF drifting first hand in person before when I was at my first auto-X competition i went to. I'm not sure how the driver did it (female driver too at that!) but she was in a Focus ZX3 hatchback, and she got that thing to drift as beautifully as a RWD car can. Anyone that saw it on the turn she did it on just had their mouths drop to the floor, LOL! She didn't seem to lose any speed on the drift either, and it WASN'T E-brake assisted, it was just pure weight transfer she used to slide with.
