I am not new to drifting. By any sense of the concept or action. I have run short track modifieds, and go-karts. Also entered Solo hill climbs in a '92 Ford Ranger with a supercharged 4.0 V6 with a full tubular frame and 4 wheel independent suspension. No it didn't come with it. 
I have spent many a night in dyno mode launching, turning, and drifting in parking lots in the AM. I used the islands as markers to make my own little tracks to practice on. I can drift my car better then I thought I'd be able to. The coupe with it's phat **** likes to break loose violently though. I figure I am going to run it with ESP off for a while before I run in dyno mode.
I also have never run my car with a proper suspension set up or proper "dry traction" optimized tires.
Still, I want to do the right thing, get the licenses, build the right car, and see where it takes me.
Edit- No I am not the drift master, no I don't know everything, yes! I know I need to learn more. I am just more 6 years out of practice then I am clueless. (thought this was the appropriate edit)
