^ I'm pretty sure you can, just need practice. When I first started drifting, or rather practicing, me and my buddy would do it at his apartments vast parking lot when it rained.

You need a good space with no cars around. And if it's wet, even better. Because the car breaks traction much easier and hence you don't need to carry much speed. Doing some DE events help your driving skills in general as well.
