yes in snow its quite easy... i personally like long drift like donuts better but you can do tight ones as well.. just put it in first turn the wheel and gas it.. yes you can do it with your car... now the fun part waiting for snow! haha have fun and just go in a parking lot without a lot of obstacles lol

you dont have to just start driving then start turning... your gonna slide.. you can leave the clutch out.. just be ready to engage it again if you spin out and stop

try it at like 3k the and kinda feather it in, but I mean if you are in the snow with the wheel at full lock and then you floor the F\/<Ker, then it'll do some donuts.

the long drifts are the best... go into a wide street with a corner, make sure no one is comin the other way (best time to do it is 3am go into the corner at a medium speed depending on how wide the street is and then towards the middle of the turn rev till 3500rpm and pop the clutch and the tail will kick out, then turn the steering wheel theoposite wayand balance with the gas and pull the car through the turn.. a lot better than donuts and people who see u will be like wtf!!! its a lot of fun and takes a lot of practice i got pretty good at it last winter ill post some videos when i get some snow. enjoy man.

idk about drifting at night man. its really hard to see out the side window if theres no lights pointing where your goin, especially if u have tints. im only sayin that cause i totled a car doin that, luckly it was only a chrysler, wouldnt wanna see that happen to an audi.
