Default drifting a diesel

does anyone/has anyone drifted a diesel car? i know when you think diesel you think of a semi truck or a powerstroke or cummins, but when watching american le mans series the diesels are the cars to beat.

i imagine that it would be pretty exspensive to get into right now. but from knowing diesels they are full of torque they dont really rev very high but aparently audi has fixxed that problem in le mans?

well my first thought was the revs. i guess it all depends on the motors design really, anything that makes torque would work.

im sure the technology in the leMans car is a tad higher than what we might afford though.

It seems that diesel's make twice as much torque as they do horse power. Kind of like the polar opposite of most honda's.
