    Don't EVER put drift and Civic in the same sentence...
    And I have blown out a rear tire at 65mph and just pulled over, how did you lose control?

    I've blown a front out at 80mph before with no problem except ruined a wheel because i had to get across 4 lanes to get on the shoulder...

    You can drift a Civic (or any FWD car)

    People can't comprehend that drifting is about the momentum and control, not just a powerslide with smoke coming out the rear tires.
