I was driving with a friend of mine in a roundabout and she was a bit excited and said "come on freddy pull on the handbrake!! lets drift a bit" I just floored the gas pedal and drove the whole roundabout extremly sideways that she screamed - all I answered was "handbrake? who needs a handbrake?"
I flat-spotted the tires on one of our loaners at work doing E-brake drifting a few weeks ago around an on-ramp after light snow. Luckily the boss didn't care and had me replace the tires.

When I was in the army, we used to drift our bandwagons, little trucks that tilt in the middle and have 4tracks, not tyres. That was some scary shit even if the topspeed was 40mph:ish. Ford V6 screaming and 4tons of glassfibre going sideways, if you overcook it, there was absolutely noway of catching the drift
