I tried the FWD method on RWD and it started sliding.
But yeah, that is like the most fun in the world if you nail it, except you die if you slide too much. When my friend slid his camaro I got super freaked out, but I forgot it was actually recoverable, and the first time I tried it I was still super nervous.
h: That's the biggest issue with FWD I think, if you do manage to induce some big oversteer, you're screwed, otherwise it's pretty easy to control, little lift or left foot braking if it unders too much. Lifting by itself usually isn't enough to induce dangerous oversteer I've found. The only way to really do it that I've found is ebrake, which you shouldn't try anyways, or sudden braking when the car is turning. It seems if you jab too hard and too late at turn in it and it is a more gradual corner, you'll snap over with the rears locking shortly before all four lock, but if it's a tighter corner with a sharper turn in you'll just plow straight forward when the fronts lock, and the car will just turn suddenly once it catches if you keep the wheel steered. But it'll also turn like shit if you brake too early cause it won't transfer enough weight to the front, so it's a fine line, it seems to like a fast turn in too, cutting the wheel hard and turning in later, I used to turn in earlier and not as quick and it didn't seem to go as fast and it exited slower.
I dunno, I don't have any real experience, but that's what I've found messing around.
