NO, Drifting is not easy no matter what car you drive. If your driving skills are shit then you wont Drift well in any car. I suggest a lot of low speed practice where no one can see you.

*Oh god i'm gunna die* Then your instincts tell you to ease off the gas and you spin out, very dmoralizing, so if you can get a private track, go for it. As for the Trans Am yes very possible, and also saves me from making a new thread about a questoin i had. That question being, i know it is possible to drift mustangs, camaros and trans ams but has anyone here ever tried it? |

you'd probably damage the suspension before you got anywhere.

If your car has more weight in the back, or low-grip tires, it is easier to drift, but the flip side is that during the drift, you have little control. Conversely, if you have a 50/50 balanced car with sticky tires, you will have more control, but it will be harder to start the drift.
Find somewhere like a parking lot, or anywhere with a lot of empty space, so that you can practice, and if you lose control, you won't crash into anything. |

Can you drift on a wet parking lot/track?
Also, are the big Buicks and CHevys of the 70's good for drifting? They have skinny tires and good torque. Are they legal to compete in drifting contests? |

You can drift almost anything thats RWD...
I've drifted my '86 Chevy Blazer K5 4x4... the fullsize not the piddly S10 Blazer. It was only for maybe, 40-50ft total... but I did it... Got all 5250lbs of my truck sideways through a parking lot... turning 33" tires too.  I didn't expect it to break the tires lose going into the turn, but i rolled over the painted lines of parking lot and gave it just enough slip to break loose and off I went... Fun times... I won't do it again though once in my truck is more than enough. My truck...

Holy shit! Someone asked about Domestic Drift.
You CAN drift a trans am and I encourage you to try it. Im curious to see the limits of the domestic cars.

I love boasting about the youngins we have in our group. Here are some shots of a father and son having fun at a local drift event:
 They showed up to drag but saw we were having a ball so they joined up!  The long island boys (they all moved away for college 'cept one)   It is like a drift trainer! Hahhahaa

Hahah, well I wont do it again... a bit scary. Once you got the 'mass' moving it wasn't too bad, but its when those huge tires catch grip is what you have to worry about... hehe. Fun times...
