i dont know what people are saying

"have less traction in the back"

that doesnt make any sense, you need to accelerate hard while coming out of the drift and you can only do that with good traction

That only applies on the track. Sometimes you have to try and avoid ****. Like a mailbox for instance....

doesnt matter really, both feet in always, understeering especially...dont ever try and correct understeering by staying on the gas either clutch kick it or pull the ebrake. as for having to aviod mailboxes, drifting on backroads where there are houses isnt the brighest idea...but if your gonna do it, dont hit ****, especially peoples mail boxes. if worse comes to worse, go into a parkinglot and learn recoveries spin, press in the clutch, coutersteer back to your orginal position and put it back in probably a lower gear since you lost speed. but anyways i dont know where i was going with this...haha

Agreed...the only way you could totally blow that is if you put your foot to the floor in such a low gear, hit full boost, and did a donut or two...something doesn't add up here....
