nk4e -- shame on you for asking that.
IH8GWB -- have you honestly
never seen any GT4 photos of Motor Wagens or Motor Carriages sideways?
I can't find any photos around GTP at the moment, but I'm sure someone here has access to one. Let's just say that you're not the first person to come up with the idea.
Regardless, bringing up the Motor Carriage has nothing to do with the fact that nearly every RWD or AWD car is driftable, and anything with a handbrake and the power to go fast enough can handbrake slide.
