Default drifting with the 450H?

haha i was wondering if its possible due to the high hp and immediate torque from the beast?

or the HSD system prevents wheelspin to prevent damage to the electric motors? Since its a heavy sedan would inducing oversteer be easy?

I guess the ebrake pedal style doesn't help either doh!

.

i got around 20 km a liter when i drove a civic 5 spd using advanced hypermiler techniques
and now I drive a salvage nwh20 prius that gets almost to 25 km/l with 195,000 km to date. (retired)
1997 BMW 318IS with m44 engine (1.9 liters > 130 horsepower on 91 octane, capable of 30 mpg highway)
