Just match your revs.. vroom (rev) clutch in... downshift
make nice smooth downshifts and your car wont even mind.
Dont shift lock.. which is acctually a drifting term. fun in the rain!

heh i got it down in my old probe, brake rotors were warped like a mother, so there was no point in trying to slow down with the brakes unless you wanted to be jerked around. Downshifting solved all that until I ought new crossdrilleds a year later. so i figure i've had my practice. When i got the new rotors in i still engine brake, just became habbit i guess. Its not harmful as long as you rev-match to the downshift
