Dropping revs, yeah it happens. It really depends on the car and the corner. 2nd gear hairpins with my s14 and stock ka, there is no problem for the most part, as long as you can maintain at least 3000rpm. With sr or a 4.3 final drive (or both), there's no issues whatsoever.

Understeer, happens too. You just have to do it right. Don't brake too hard when it's time to pitch the car into the turn. Play with pads.

Some people don't like brake drift because it seems to require more effort. Like there's a lot of extra variables and caca to think about. Some people like it for that same reason.
