well.. that's difficult to use as an argument.. most cars that come out of the factory are built to understeer.. regardless of rwd or fwd.. did you know the 350z understeers heavily? while the ITR's come out of the factory with oversteer..

i don't see the relevance of the e-brake wheels having to be the same as the drive wheels..

yes.. i agree.. but i think times are changing.. we've just been used to rwd as drift cars. nowadays, we come to see rhys millen coming out in an awd car and fwd's making more and more appearances in some drift competitions. same deal with race cars.. they used to be all rwd cars. now tsx's are taking win's over bmw's at the speed touring car competitions.

ahhh... see.. so it is called drifting.. people will see a fwd drifting and they'll say 'it's not drifting, it's power sliding' do you see the irony in the terminology? if anything, i would call the fwd drifting and the rwd power sliding.. the term fits better..

rwd doesn't have an oversteering nature.. you have to work at breaking the rear loose to oversteer the car.. so to oversteer, that means that you must lose traction in the rear. when a fwd car is sliding around countering.. it's because it doesn't have traction in the rear. yes, i know that the rear wheels aren't spinning either.. but no one ever said it had to either.
