Tips on drifting a miata

Hows it going,
Well i have a 91 miata NA, which im tryin to stay NA much as possible and still be able to drift. I was able to take make it out to a drift event, and only setup i had was being lowered on raceland coilovers. I went out had fun, only issue i was either spinning out or i didnt even kick out my tail and just had tremendous understeering. I even tried clutch kickin and it didnt seem to work at all lol.
Before the turn i would pick up my speed, keeping it on second. When i feint to the outside i have the cluth in tryin to coast it in. When i turn towards the turn, i tab on the ebrake and let go on the clutch right after and gas it through. Majority of the time the car didnt really get tail happy. Also powering over lol out of the question just 90hp wont do much hahaha. Anybody have another technique to give it a try??
I know first event i wont get it right and more seat time, just would like to know another way to try to drift. I saw video to do donut or figure 8's but really the way cops are these days, i wont risk a parking lot
So far as up to date my new mod has been an addition of 1.8 torsen upgrade thats about it.
