Default S4 Drifting...anyone done it?

Has anyone gotten their B7 S4 to drift? Does the 4WD make it harder? Do you need mods before attempting?

(not that I wanna try...just curious)

Default Today I was out having some fun...

I managed to get a few 40 foot long marks left on the road when I was doing about 45 mph and using the E-brake. You have to turn off stability control and just quickly turn the opposite way first then back to the direction you're turning. I did it at the nearby high school when it was deserted.

Default I'll try to get a friend to record it sometime when I get my new rims.

Although I don't want to wear down the rubber on my tires too much. On dry pavement you'll start smelling the rubber easy. On wet pavement it's a lot easier so I'll try next time it rains, and according to weather.com its gonna rain for like a whole week after I get my rims.

Default nothing like you'd see in a modern drifting competition...

...i.e. in a RWD car with huge power and bald rear tires. But you can pull off a nice 4-wheel drift in any quattro with some practice, wet or dry.
