I prefer rwd also, 100 times over, but still its no reason a fwd can't drift too, fwd just takes diffrent techniques and isn't as easy as rwd.

so you have an AE86? (so says your custom title) put work into that and not the fwd car.

the front wheels will always negate the "drift" as when accelerating, the front powered wheels will pull the rear back in check (hence one of the "safety" reasons most consumer cars are designed fwd). to maintain a long drift w/ the fwd will require a lot of momentum and room. to simplify getting the rear out even more outfit the car w/ a hydraulic handbrake.
