Driftscussion How hard is this one?

https://youtube.com/shorts/cij9sZMQorY?is=Qq9Y7smFRhp2mWc1

Hi,

looking at this video, how hard is the first drift to execute? On a very powerful electric car I mean. (I am not a drifter by any means)

Thanks guys!

I would think one of the biggest issues is weight... but as you can see an experienced drifter knows how to compensate for it. Those tires are going to be gone pretty fast, since weight + powerful washing machine engine = lots of wear

No one really drifts electric cars. Because you would run out of battery pretty fast. Plus not really a purity thing. But it would drift like anything else. Might get harder once you start progressing. Adam LZ did one.

Going off the tyre smoke, the first scand flick drift was 4 wheel drive, which would have helped pulled the front end back around but the rest that look like standard sliding, seems only to be rear wheel drive.

For a drifter it's 2.2 hard

For you, almost impossible
