the braking drift is coming into a corner faster than you really should, braking a little harder than you would doing grip, and as you feel the weight shift to the front, give the car some gas and it should bring the car around.

You can practice this around 45-60 degree turns at slow speeds. It takes really good heel-toe skill, and weight shift sensing.

this so off topic slighty but with a shift lock method (stabbing clutch) its not the fact of no power if you wanted to that you would just push the clutch in. when you quickly over load the drive train it will lock up everything very quickly then rush power to it. basicly you are shocking the diff. and making your gears mesh for an instant.

That would = locking the tires up =)

Braking drift? I dunno, get on the brakes, load front tires, get off brakes gently, turn wheel...profit.
