Drifting in an SUV would scare me...... No matter what you do to it, deep down in it's heart of hearts, it's still an SUV waiting for an excuse to roll on you.

Woops! I stand corrected. "Powersliding" I have yet to understand if they're any advantages between "grip" and "powersliding" through corners. Is there any advantage to it other than looking cool? uzzled:

There is no advantage in a front-wheel drive car. GRIP is what will get you in and out of the corners quickly; putting as much of the horsepower to the ground and keeping it there. Powersliding, you will lose your momentum when traction eventually overcomes the tires.
I used to use a GMC jimmy to drift. I ojnly ever did it in rear weal drive. I never got gutsy enough to try it with 4WD. Unless for the snow. But thats not really drifting thats just damn fun lol
