I went so completely sideways on it at the only sweeper on the course. Did that twice and here's my drifting impression:

Steering is excellent it's a bit heavier than even the Yaris power steering I have on my AE86....but the steering angle is good when you need it and the response is positive.

Only car I have driven in recent years where you feel so at one with it you forgot you are in a car in a real world environment, you are overwhelmed by the G-forces, the feed back from the butt of the rear tires screaming for mercy and the ear-to-ear grin the Open Road staff share with you in the middle of the drift. Suddenly the cheap plastics and lack of power and a clutch pedal didn't matter at all. It's a refreshing change to the increasingly game-like driving dynamics of modern cars.

Can't wait until it gets a tad more powerful in future iterations.
