So, if drifting like Ken Block is slower, why do people keep trying to do it. I mean, I understand the difference in World Rally driving where the road surface is dirt or gravel, but when they are on pavement like asphalt or concrete isn't it actually slower?

I'm trying to mentally prepare myself for getting back into driving the 928 in anger. The last autocross I participated in had a 180 turn around a single cone with barely enough room to turn the car. It was faster to do a ebrake turn in that situation to rotate the car quicker in the smaller area, but on pavement where the turns are bigger isn't a 7 to 15 degree drift the fastest?
