I almost never drove a rear wheel drive car, but testdrove my friend's stock RX-7 and was drifting it inside of 20 minutes. Since then I've owned an MX-5, and if my MX-5 was as lethal as the iRacing one I'd be dead several times over.
My MX-5 gets snappier with the R888 tires on, but still easily driftable and 'incidents' are fun, not lethal.
