Yes... Dollygrrl has been trained by a anonymous professional just this Monday. You may request a live demo from her on any meet - ups.

check out the drift bible on youtube. A lot of the drift techniques you don't even need a RWD car or a clutch but it helps.

1. & 2. the e brake or Scandinavian flick can be done in any car. the e brake is obvious way to drift. and the flick transfers weight from side to side to upset the cars balance.

2. the braking technique can be done in any rwd car - hard braking moves the weight to the front allowing the rear wheels to loose traction.

3. Don't know if the auto has enough control over power and gear for a power slide i would hope so as spinning tire is fun.

4. Also with a lift off drift, it may not stay in a low gear to induce a lot of engine braking. This is also called dynamic drifting as is rather difficult.

I just don't know how much the computer stays out of your way for those last 2 techniques.

5. & 6. You can't do a shift lock or clutch kick - no clutch.

7. Also depending on your track where you are you can do a dirt drop but this is also a bit dangerous for my liking. You put a back wheel in the dirt to loose traction. You can also do the opposite and hit the wheel on a small hump or curb to upset balance.

Then you can also use a combination of any of these techniques to produce drift.

Just make sure your in a safe area like not on public roads but a track. Also take care of your LSD as these can get beat up while drifting. Also get a cheap set of rear tires to practice as these will get used up pretty quickly.

Have tried tat in my car in KL...you need to use lotz on ur H. brake...also to achieve optimum level... u need to do negative camber, a good lsd and suspension setup....
Go and contact imperial concept or me..if u want to know more...
