Why do Rally cars drift?

Why do Rally cars drift? Re: Why do rally cars drift/power-slide? Dealing with dirt is very different than pavement. The traction is a lot less, and the tires do not break away in the same manner as pavement. On pavement, as the car turns, the tires are achieving a greater and greater slip angle.
