Drifting?

just wondering has any one tryed to drift their fit? ok i know its FWD not RWD and not powerfull so dont give the why would any one tryed it blah blah blah... it is possible to drift anything with 4 wheels... maybe nto really long but w/e. I'm just wondering if anyone has gotten it sideways controlably? if so how was it?... the only drifting i have really done was in a CRV in the winter.. and yes they do drift if done proporly... i cant wiat till winter so i can try the Fit out... and yes i know... Drifting=car abuse

Well from my expierience playing the Racing sim Forza 2 for X360, you truley cant fully have control of a FWD car while in a ebrake slide..Especially with a car as under powered as the Fit, but in the snow it probaly could drift really well lol!

Drifting in a corner with a FWD is more like... severe understeer?

buy a cheap 240 if you want to drift something. the fit will slide a little with proper e-braking, but that is by no means proper drifting.
