VIDEO-Difference between good drift and bad drift

[cooperluke]

This was in an Hillclimb here in Portugal, called "Rampa dos Capuchos".

The Good drift, with an Escort

its not good to understeer when you are trying to oversteer

I'm not sure what language the escort video is in, but I'm pretty sure that guy is saying something equivalent to "Holy Shit". It takes one hell of a driver to maintain oversteer on a corner such as that in a classic car such as that.

The other driver seemed to be at mercy of the Gods of Understeer...

Escort is a great car to drift, very easy to recover from biiiig angles ...
Never drove a datsun, though ...
