The car should be 4wd. If it is not then it is really hard to controll the slides. you just end up spinning out every time, in fact its almost impossible. If the car is 2wd and you fancy giving it a go then it would have to be rear wd, front wheel drive would just understeer all over the place with drift tyres. If you have a rwd car then you got nothing to loose, slap some electrical tape on your tyres and give it a go
