Do you drift with your FR-S

So I took my FR-S out in the rain earlier and I found it extremely easy to handle and maneuver this car. I used to practice with a 240sx but this car seems much more balanced. Iam pretty sure alot of you drift with it but I can't find any videos on YouTube. If you guys can put links to watch some of you do it, it would be great.

Since we're on the topic of drifting, has anybody's wheel bearings failed yet?

Garage
When the housing market was huge and houses were going up left and right there were plans to significantly expand my subdivision. By the time construction finished on the new streets and cul-de-sacs the market crashed and the plan to build new houses was put on hold.

So now there are a bunch of empty roads and cul-de-sacs behind my subdivision. Sometimes when I am bored I will take the car out and play on those empty roads.

There is one stretch that is pretty good for drifting and one time I hit a drift that was so good it felt like a crime, lol! I am by no means a professional driver and it was my first good drift. I don't do it often because I want to save my wheels. I am installing rocket bunny around the first of the year though, and that of course means new wheels, so I will practice more then.
