What is a real drift?

[GoukiS14]

yet another one of these...... we really need to figure out a way to help newbies out, cuz we get the same threads all the time. Maybe on the front page "click here to read some of the basics" or something like that.

*edit lol I just saw the new to drifting section.... maybe it should be moved to the top so that people can see it right away as soon as they enter the forums

Well, one thing is for sure. If someone call it a powerslide, they're way off. A powerslide is when you break traction on the rear wheels by applying power. Pretty impossible in an Accord...
