help me? :/

Ok im 17 and I been driving for almost a yr now and I have my liscense. Im really into drifting and learning how to do it. The only problem is... I don't have a RWD :/

What cheap car do u guys recommend that I get so I can learn and be comfortable at the fact that its my own car?

buy a 240 and a helmet and get out to the track

i'd also recommend hitting a regular track day in your car and sitting with an instructor, you'll learn a lot about car control that will come in handy when you get into a drift car

colin nailed it

practice practice practice and dont neglect "grip" driving.

all of the top drifters in the world have some kind of background grip driving even if its just HPDE level stuff.

hook up with an organization like NASA and learn the basics before you even go drifting. having the ability to drive before you go drift will help you in the long run because you will only need to learn 1 thing at a time rather than 2.
