Good for you, kclo4, you bring up a very excellent point.

Drifting is very difficult, and doing it on actual streets is incredibly stupid. Drifting courses are set up specifically to allow you to try out new techniques without a screw-up costing you your life. You try drifting on a steep mountain road and you might skid yourself right off a hundred foot cliff.

I'm not into racing or drifting myself, but I do enjoy driving a car that has enough power and response to occasionally push when I need to. I'd certainly never go back to driving an automatic clunker like I learned on back in my teenage years!
