i believe it slides out a lot better in rear wheel drive. if yours is 4wd and not sliding out like you hope it would just take out the belt which gives power to the front wheels.

oh and this might help you if you weren't aware... i got this from here i think

electrical tape on wheels
take belt off ... rwd
- set zero degree "camber" on the rear
- set more than -2mm camber on the front wheels
- set the ball differential at the rear to "kind of loose" (but not loosing the screw inside too much, or your differential may fall apart during the drift) <=== the most important setting to make the car "drift"

well, on real cars, a drift is just a controlled slide...so it can be anything as long as yur in controll and its a slide...but most of the time drifting cars are rwd...for RC...the best advice i can give you is electrical tape on the rear wheels (or all if your 4wd)

Actually, in real life, a car has to be RWD or 4WD to drift, it is almost impossible to drift in a FWD car, and the only reason I say almost, is because you could get about 45 degrees around a bend in a FWD car before the rear wheels slow you down.
