If you matched revs when downshifting and used left foot braking or even trail braking, hell why not throw in a scando flick while you're at it you should be able to get the tail end out of a FWD car faily easily and with a lot more control and less stress on your car then the technique you have described. A bit more skill involved, a bit more control achieved (if done well) and your car might live a little longer. Also leaving your handbrake very slightly on (so it just trails) will help induce oversteer, but will also kill your rear brakes.

As for not affording a track day every month, but I'm assuming you can afford the odd ticket and/or loss of licence when you do get caught? What about the lawsuit or hassles when you do lose it and kill or injure some poor drunken sod who decided to go for a walk in the middle of the road in the dark wearing all black?

Sorry, I'm sure we all do silly things on the road, but I really think too many people think "track days are so expensive, only professional or rich people can go for them, the rest of us have to drift on the roads". Most of the events I do cost me less than $50 for the day... And I can go flat out and not worry about some granny crossing the road with her shopping trolley around the next corner, or an oncoming car, or a police cruiser waiting behind the next tree...
