Its possible. Harder to control, but possible. Inner wheel will spin mostly but it will drift.

'Drift' for short periods, yes; you can get the tail to come out.

Controlled drift for more than a second - need LSD.

Do etttt

If you can't figure out that the car doesn't have an LSD then you probably shouldn't be "drifting". Give your mom the keys to her car! Lol

Drive a car with an LSD and you'll understand that the open diff is NOT what you're looking for. You'll feel the difference immediately.
Controlled drifts are not going to happen with an open diff. A turn induced oversteer is more like what you're going to get instead.

You can drift anything, including FWD cars if you know what you're doing. Drift: oversteer.:








It's just much easier to control with an LSD, especially for armatures.

Practice in a wet parking lot, NOT on the streets first!

I dont know about you guys but my car is fbo inlets outlets so on and i step out 1st and second and can dance around corners no prob. Mi d you with stock suspension i used to get snap oversteer and i want an lsd cause i kill rear brakes and it isnt consistent can get a little scary but usually i can steer with throttle however if road breaks up can be problems.

I've got to agree with the "How could you not be able to figure it out?" train of thought, especially if you're someone trying to drift. I am very much a drifter, and have built up a car just for it, and I'm getting pretty decent at it. Keep it to the track, and try not to crash your 335.
