Live-Evil, is there anything relatively simple that you need help with, like editing or timing?
Regarding FF drifting, if you look at certain groups of rallycross (not the WRC-spec guys, but lesser ones like SCCA ProRally GT class, and european 1600 classes) you will see this. True motorsports drifting, like that depicted in Initial D, is controlled oversteer in order to carry speed through a corner, rather than slowing down enough to keep traction and accelerate out using the traditional 'grip' technique. A front-wheel drive car can do this, it is not as simple as steering with the throttle however, they need to use a lot of input to the both the handbrake and the footbrake. FF cars have the advantage of being able to begin accelerating earlier in the corner, and also less drivetrain loss vs. FR vehicles, but I'm sure most of you already know that. FR is a lot more fun to drive though, I wish they would show the uphill races, there isn't enough rotary action in Stage 4.
Does anyone else feel that the AE86 shouldn't have been able to beat the Miata in a downhill race? Not only is the Miata lighter and more powerful, but it's got a better suspension and significantly lower center of gravity.
Another thing, for nighttime racing, they sure don't emphasize the importance of good headlights, that should have been mentioned by now.
