  hairpin?
  
  u mean in track those kinda hairpin?
  
  or just a simple handbrake u turn?
  
  i've read b4 in other forums, to do a handbrake u turn, you gotta be in 2nd gear. drop your revs to like 4-5k, pull hand brake and turn at the same time. clutch in, switch to 1st gear, rev, release clutch, release hand brake, accelerate.

  u rev to maintain your engine rpm so you get to stay in the power band

  nope.
  
  but if do too much drifitng, your wheels will go out of alignment.

  I don't think it's possible doing a hairpin turn at 120km/h .. 60 km/h is quite fast already.

  Diablous...that was wat i was told by the Autocar Magazine David Ting... the rest are all fake as in...the car is the normal lancer 1.3 but they change the engine to the 4gc3T the evo3 engine... he told me in an email that there is only one original Evolution 3 in singapore just like the one and only Toyota Glanza V.

  Drift Techniques :
  
  Kansei Drift- this is performed at race speeds, when entering a high speed corner a driver lifts his foot off the throttle while slightly turning into a corner to induce a mild over steer and then balances the drift through steering, braking and throttle motions. (note: the car that is being used for this style of drift should be a neutral balanced car therefore the over steer will be induce when this technique is applied, if the car plows through any turn this technique will not work)

  You mean to say that the rest are all lancer 1.3/1.6 with a evo 3 4GC3T in them and paying tax for a 2L car and insurance for a TCed car???
  
  hhmmmm......wonder how they get LTA's approval when they drop in the engine?

  120km/h hairpin?? impossible. Even with slip differential and yaw controller installed in ur 4wd evo3. Even if u tighten ur front suspension and losen ur rear.
  
  but 120km/h for normal corner as below:
  Jam brake (to around 120km/h), throw ur steering wheel hard(the the direction u r going to turn), change gear if accordingly, floor ur accelerator to lose traction, turn ur wheel to the direction u r drifting accordingly, control ur accelerator accordingly, use handbrake to fine tune ur drift, then slowly turn ur steering wheel to ur normal position as nesscerily as u exit the corner, let go of ur accelerator to gain more traction accrodingly. Most importantly, feel and ah-ga-ration.
  
  even tat, u need lots of space, itz a last minute resort method(last minute realise therez a corner in front of u).
