Is drifting an MR2 possible? In this video we attempt to consistently drift a SW20 Toyota MR2 Turbo on a closed course. Drifting a mid-engine sports car has it's challenges, there's lots of weight pressing the rear tires down to the ground - unlike front engine, rear wheel drive cars which have very little weight on the rear drive tires. The MR2 would prefer to understeer in most cases until you lift off the gas - inducing "lift-off oversteer", this would change the momentum of the car's balance by using the weight of the car's engine to swing the back end sideways. We found that snap oversteering happens from lifting off the throttle abruptly when the car's suspension is loaded up during a turn or drift.
