I currently drive a 99reg 206, front wheel drive manual car and would like to know tips on starting to drift, because I do want to learn how, but when I've asked people how to do it properly, people have said there's like 5 different ways to do it, any suggestions people?

I would start on the largest asphault available, a Track is preferable, I didn't have that option.
Pick a day when the road is wet, and visibility excellent, and no cars around, I'm 51 now, and don't need tickets.
I can't recommend someone try this, just be safe.
You will need power.
Over 30 years ago, in Southern Nevada, I loved going to this large area in the desert after it rained. I like powersliding in circles and figure 8's, feet on the pegs, more fun than Wheelies.

Ckeck out this Video. I don't think the driver is Crazy. I think the people on the side of the road may be:
