A record number of over 25,000 spectators witnessed what could possibly be Malaysian motorsports history in the making as the 05/06 Street Shoot-Out Championships drew to a climatic conclusion here at the Stadium Nasional Bukit Jalil on Saturday.

The event attracted the biggest number of competitors ever in both Time Attack and Drift Attack categories and also played host to two of the most prominent figures in the sport of drifting, Keiichi Tsuchiya and Yasuyuki Kazama from the D1 Professional Drift Grand Prix Series (D1GP), a first for Malaysia and South East Asia

But the real crowd puller was the drift attack finals held later in the day. Official D1GP judge Keiichi Tsuchiya, who is widely respected as the "Drift King", and 2005 D1GP Champion Yasuyuki Kazama started proceedings with demonstration runs.

Tsuchiya drove R3's own specially-prepared R3 Waja DSpec, drifting it around the bespoke course at speeds of up to 140kmh. Kazama also demonstrated his signature "wakuwaku" or rodeo drift technique, half-straddling the driver's side door whilst doing donuts and figure of eights in a Nissan Silvia S15 at up to 80kmh..
