[quote][i]Originally posted by drax[/i] Okay think of it like this. An AWD car, can powerslide. It has 2 LSD's, is using all its wheels to put power to the ground, it slides on all wheels, powersliding due to the grip being reduced. A FWD car uses the front wheels to steer and for driving the car, it can oversteer and cause the rear of the car to come out past the parralel of the wheels, causing a skid, with loss of traction to the rear wheels, it is not however being driven, its merely being steered in the direction that it is skidding. A RWD car can be .. Power-overed, using the power of the engine to enduce loss of traction on the rear wheels whilst maintining steering using the front wheels still gripping, the power can also be adjusted an a constant drift can be made. Lift off, accelerating and releasing the throttle to shift momentum of the weight of the car to the rear allowing loss of traction, then maintaining the drift with the throttle and rear wheels, steering appropriatly. and theres many more ways to do it. its all about controlling and still driving, not pushing your car's grip away from it so you slide.
