People working on forza already noticed that drifting getting bigger and bigger . What i think would be very nice is having some real or custom drift layout with inside / outside clip . Car x already made it before and is i think a way smaller game , i dont think it could not ever happen on forza .
Point in drift is not made by how fast your tire spin , it is made by hitting some specific area on the circuit while having a nice angle and having some style too .
Been asking for support for drifting since FM3, they haven’t done anything since so I wouldn’t hold your breath. They actually said they’re ‘moving away from drifting’
Where did you find this?
In one of their early articles they mentioned it’s not in the game from launch, but nothing saying it won’t be added:
Forza Motorsport delivers clean, fun and competitive racing in both single-player and multiplayer. We’ve prioritized our development efforts on circuit racing with modern race cars and modern production cars. This focus impacts the entire game, from the cars and tracks we’ve included to, the new rendering features, physics, AI and gameplay experiences that we have built.
With that in mind, we want to let you know we will not have drag or drift game modes available at release. We will, however, have drag tires, as well as drift suspension, available as car upgrades and you can enjoy them in experiences like private Meetup lobbies.

It’ll most likely get added at a later point, when they have the game running better.
