I dont know dude, I really dont get what you are saying. I have been drifting for over a year now. Both in the streets, parking lot and tracks. I have never damaged my car in the streets, or parking lot. I went to 4 of the DDays and never had any damages, I entered Hialeah speedway and KABOOM there went my S13, everybody hits something no matter where. So i dont get where you coming from. i do understand those noobs cause if you are new to something and you go to your first drift event and you crash; Where do you think your selfsteem is going to go? So i say a couple of Ghymkhanas and some road courses will help you get better, and then when you have enough car control is when you try an oval. IMO....
