drifting in my 8 ?

hey guys..

ive been invited to a drifting day on a racing track here in denmark..

would be nice to try it out and get to know my car in that way as well .. up until now i only raced it on the tracks..

but my question now is how does the 8 react to such tuff driving? ofc i know i probably need some new tires when im done but thats not where my worrys are any experiences ? weak suspension ? and engine is probably gonna be redlined most of the time..

should i do it or not? i dont wanna "destroy" my car completely hehe

it does fine, harder to learn, if you have shittier tires to put in the rear it'll help

I highly doubt you'll hurt it, unless you grind gears and ****.
