    What, no bashing, no "that car is a piece of Jap shit"? I know I wasn't going to get any "that's a really cool video". But come on! LOL

    What. I'm still trying to figure out how he does the really big radius drift with the car almost 90* sideways the whole way around. Especially with 4wd

    I know you've heard me mention left foot braking before right? While you keep the throttle hammered down, give a minor steering input, then give the brake pedal some slight pressure just to upset the balance of the car and keep the wheel moving. Due to the brake bias being mainly to the fronts, it upsets the balance of the car and causes the drifting. It's typically faster on pavement to use threshold/trail braking, but doesn't look as cool. Snow and gravel is another story!
