They're particularly difficult, open diff, low power, lots of grip, mid engined and not much steering angle. Very difficult to maintain a drift, I can get it sideways but holding it is very hard without lots of momentum and a wide track.

My point exactly, perfect conditions and yet hardly much angle at all.

if you listen to the original video , you can tell it has terrible driveability

 

*plug mode on*  , with a 260pack , you could hold that on a constant line and drift it so much easier

You need to be a real hero driver to do it.

 

I do it regularly.

There's a bunch of us doing this https://driftlimits....ft-experiences/ on Saturday which should be fun. Anyone else done something similar? The vx is definitely not the car for drifting imo, with a LSD it might be more willing but I don't like getting near that point in mine.
