Drifting Experiences
Some say drifting is the most fun you can have in a car. And they certainly wouldn’t be wrong. This unusual, adrenaline fuelled motorsport is taking the world by storm with the UK right at the helm of the sideways revolution. Unconventional to mainstream motorsports where a stopwatch determines the winners from the losers, drifting isn’t about time (so throw that stopwatch away). Judged on speed, angle and proximity, drifting is the ultimate test of a driver’s car control, bravery and trust in the car sliding a couple of inches away in competition. Perhaps you’ve done a track day before and fancy a bit of sideways action, or maybe you’ve stumbled across the latest Ken Block video and thought you’d like to have a go? Well, we’ve got the perfect selection of drifting experiences guaranteed to cement the bug for going sideways! You’ve been warned. It’s highly addictive.
