Is stupid - because they are by nature not "driftable" - they are FWD not RWD hence they do not have throttle induced oversteer.
Some people still astound me with their stupidity!

Just for sake of argument, you can have throttle-lift oversteer. Not that the picture above would represent any oversteer. The Contour doesn't even look like it has a driver in it.

I consider a 'drift' to be a controlled slide. One in which the wheels do not have 100% traction but still control the momentum of the vehicle.
Simple 'sliding' to me means that either you were out of control or had a single direction of movement.

Wow, never thought that I'd defend a drifter, but they do drift FWD cars -- it's called an parking brake.
