i'll be the first to tell you i wouldn't do that, not when theressafe tracks and safe venues to drift now.

I'd guess 65 bare minimum....preferably 70 or 80, hard to tell from a pic.
I was hitting that first turn at dday between 40 and 45 before kicking it out....that turn looks way more obtuse.

to tell what i think would happen
that turn is at least a 70mph entrance. u would probably loose ur momentum in the turn. because for the speed. there is not enuf room to transfer all the momentum. you would end up hitting the grass on the inside of the turn, or sliding off the outside. u could possibly drift it with a very slight angle, at like 70 mph and just let the car slide itself out. there is no increasin ur speed in that kind of turn. id have to drive it in person, honestly. but its not the safest selection of turns, and if u can drift in a controlled environment why even worry about it..... so where is this and who wants to go see it??

ive seen that curve drifted before
about a year ago, when i was making a delivery run, I followed this sc300 (400?) going towards that turn.
suddenly he does this feint shuffle and he whips the car thru the turn executing an almost perfect drift @ 45-50mph!!!!!
i was like shit that was bad as fuck... I could see his buddy hanging on to the "OH SHIT" handle freaking out...hahha
so i try the same thing and totally didnt work in the pickup delivery truck....so i turn off on to some dirt flats and relieve some stress.
soooo yes the turn is driftable as is any turn...its a modulation of speed and skill and technique

The curve is in hernando county down a nice long windy country road. There is a farm on the corner, thats about it. That is the slowest cruve there is and one of the few that isnt tore up and boucny.
I dotn drift it myself, but I take it at some speed. I dont think I ever get faster than 50 coming out of it.
