Hello again everyone! How are you? I'm doing alright, thanks for asking. I am here today to talk to you about the quickest growing motor sport, Drifting. Drifting if you don't know what it is, is amazing. Drifting is not like the other auto racing events. To be a good drifter, you have to be out of control, but completely in control. In other auto racing events you the driver slows down and takes the turn carefully. In drifting, the driver gets his rear tires to lose traction and slide through the turn sideways. Even though we have a top drifting league here inn America, we did not invent it. Drifting was invented in Japan. The Japanese used it as a way to get down the mountains faster. Drifting has changed in many ways since then. Drifting is now held as events at tracks, and not as get to togethers on the streets. The biggest change in drifting is, the cars. They went from stock cars with just a turbo kit, to fully modified cars producing close to 500 horsepower (like the cars above). Since drifting started in Japan, you would think that the best drift cars are made there. The good thing is, they are. I don't think any other country could make such successful drift cars like the Japanese do. Drifting is my favorite motor sport, and some day I hope to be apart of it.
