I voted for RWD simply because I think it's more fun. I love being able to just power-over drift through some corners. When I used to drift with AWD cars all the time, I felt like I was doing the same thing in every corner. I didn't even need to try different techniques. I had one that worked and I used it all the time. (It was basically a combination of braking and feint. I'd feint to the outside before a turn then back to the inside and hit the brakes, the car would come around and I'd slam on the gas...that was pretty much it) With RWD, it's like I'm using a different style on every corner (power-over, braking, feint, sidebrake, etc) and it seems much more fun to me. It would probably be more fun to drift with AWD cars if I practiced more. I know there are more techniques I could use, but I just don't feel like it.
