Many do not know, modern drifting started out as a racing technique popular in the All-Japan Touring Car Championship races over 30 years ago by a motorcycling legend turned driver, Kunimitsu Takahashi. It has evolved tremendously and our local car nuts had quickly picked-up this competitive sport over the years.
This event had proven that our local drifters are not taking ‘dorifuto’ for granted. It will be a matter of time before this ‘sport’ will be included in the X-Games, and subsequently sanctioned by FIA.
