Experience Drifting in all it's glory while contributing to the Tsunami Disaster Fund
You've seen it. You've heard about it. Now experience it with the Drift.com.my and Hypertune
Drift Attack Experience while at the same time do your bit for charity by contributing to the Tsunami Disaster Fund this weekend at the Racers United in Aid of Tsunami Fund event at the Sepang International Circuit.
With a minimum donation of RM100 to the fund, you'll be able to ride shotgun passenger) in one of the drift cars and feel the rush of drifting as the cars go head-to-head in a tsuiso-style mock drift battle, going sideways together sometimes with only inches separating them apart.
If that is a bit scary for you, have no fear. You can also get a ride on the race track itself. There will be a number of cars available, from full-fledged race car such as the Amprex Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT and Porsche Carrera GT3 to exotics like the Ferrari Enzo to performance cars like the new limited edition Proton Satria R3.
Still too scary?
Then you can also take a bus-ride around the circuit and on the track. Yes, the bus will take you on the racetrack so you can experience what it's like driving around the circuit at a more leisurely pace.

What is drifting?
Drifting is a high-skill level motor-sport in which drivers control a car while it slides from side to side at high speed (approx. 80 to 100mph) through a fixed course. It is similar to Rally racing on ice barn, but is done on a tarmac (paved course) and judged on speed, angle of attack, execution and style rather than just who finishes the fastest. Drift cars are typically compact to midsized, rear-wheel-drive sport cars. The goal is to apply enough power to the rear wheels to break the tires' traction and initiate a slide while accelerating the vehicle forward, or "drift" Once a drift is initiated, it must be maintained through the turn using nearly a full power, a tap of braking and precise counter steering.
What is tsuiso?
"Tsuiso" is the Japanese term for "Twin Battle Drift".
