just a word of caution. FWD cars don't drift. Spoon makes excellent tuner cars, but they're not drifters. they race, and race well, and i love Spoon Honda's, but the fact is, NO-one uses Honda Civics to drift.

on another note, it looks good so far.

since drifting is using power to create a lack of traction in the rear wheels to throw the back end of the car out, and use sporadic burst of throttle to spin the rears and hold the drift, technically only RWD cars can drift. FWD cars can use the e-brake, but i don't really call that drifting, since it's simply locking up the rears and the back wheels aren't doing anything but sliding motionless. i call that "ass-dragging". FWD cars can sort of drift, but not the "real" way that RWD cars can.

DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!!
I dont mean for people to go out and try this, but have you ever went in reverse then cranked the wheels really quickly? that seems to work for most FWD cars....it gives the feeling of it, but your not going the right way. again...

sort of like a reverse 180...still not really drifting since the drive wheels are turning.
