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.

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.
