Check Out The Footage From The Inside Of The Drift Pit At LS Fest 2015 – Corvettes, Camaros, And The Usual Suspects!

Engines bouncing off of the rev limiters while drivers fight with the controls inside to drive with precision…yes, folks, drifting is awesome, and if you’ve written it off as a fad or a ricer-only deal, you are missing out. Drifters have been compared lately to the early hot rodders, and instead of sacrilege and blasphemy, I agree: there are no set build rules, there is no truly “right” way to build a drift car. It just has to go fast, hang the tail out sideways, and the driver had better know what the hell they are doing once they strap into the seat. If you like precision racing, you’ll appreciate the skill it takes to wheel a massively overpowered vehicle in a barely controlled slide while maintaining a distance of just inches from walls, cones, and the other competitor. If you’re an absolute hoon, it’s monster tire smoke, donuts, speed, sound and fury. No wonder that the drift competition had such huge crowds at LS Fest…it’s not just a fluke. This is hot rodding done right: make it fast, drive it hard…build, beat on, break, repeat.

    What’a the big deal over this rubbish? We were drifting the Brighouse Café Chinese Food delivery cars in 1977….
