Yes you can drift with a FF. I actually witnessed it myself in Japan last year!!! Falken also had a FF Honda Civic on their drift team a few years ago. There is also a huge group of touge drivers in Cali that are also drift enthusiasts that drive FF cars.
uhhh... im gonna have to look into this one... i hadnt heard any of that with the falken thing. i'd love to see it if its out there... i have seen RWD civic hatches before, but not a competitive drift FWD car. if you got a link please post and i am gonna google it right now. im not nay sayin (well i kind of am) but i know you can slide a FWD around with the e-brake but its not really a drift... you cant adjust angle or carry speed with the throttle... so no drifty... just a really fast way to make flat spots on your tires (or dissolve lunch trays, depending on your level of creativity).

i suppose you could just juice up the front suspension and stiffen up the rear sway and over inflate some crappy bald rear tires, then use the foot brake to shift the weight to the front right at turn in and that would give you a butt ton of over steer... but still... its not a drift. its just a really hard to control car. soooo again if you got a link i would love to see it.

I'm down as long as you don't mind a VW Jetta being in the convoy 'cause I won't be taking my car to this unless there is some special VIP parking for Scions




So what's the big news guys?
