Drifting is basicly powersliding, having the back of the car swing out around the corners and holding it so you don't wipe out but continue sideways and then strait down the straitaway.
And the MR-2 is a hybrid, if you're doing hybrids, just go into the ini file of the car, go to line 440, and change the 1 to like 8000(that = power X 8) or what ever you want. I put the MR2 at 13000, or X13.
And I made a ZZ2 last night, 4wd, F1 tires(yea yea I know, different sizes, but it works)and line 440 is set to 15000. It's 15360HP, and I made it a wheelie car, it goes up to 3800MPH, and lap times(test track, duh) are around 25sec. Now that's fast...
