Their cars only make a fraction of the power of this car, and they drift just fine, even at higher speeds. The car just required understanding and tons of practice, but once you got it, you got it. This will be the same thing. It's the AE86 is still loved to this day.
Sure the car has no problem drifting under 25mph. But that's boring in my opinion. And you can't compete with that. Yes you can get around little tiny Japanese mountain roads and gymkhana drift with the current power but we don't have that nor will we succumb to that here in Texas. We have LOTS of asphalt and we use all of it.
