Why laugh? Any rwd car can drift. Competing in a drift race may be different.

Personally i reckon its pretty cool, a supercharged v8 taking it too the 4 banger boys. But if you read into the article it only had basic mods. But the next ones meant to be purpose built for drifting

yes i agree
sometimes this forum can be abit biased
sprinters and 180 sx's arent the only cars that can drift
all u need is rock solid suspension and be able to spin both wheels

The Vipers and Pontiac GTO aren't doing too shabby in the US Drifting Championship.

It was more the way the article was written then the cars themselves. basicly saying that the 4cyls wont stand a chance etc.!

On the Option US Special vid, theres a guy (sounds ozzy) that does up a Pontiac/GM GTO with a V8 and competes against the D1 drivers, he actually pulls it off quite well, but not as well as the D1 drivers (No chance). Though the car was pretty much stripped to a bare shell and rebuild for DORIFTO!!!
