Drifting is a high-speed motorsport where drivers skillfully maneuver their cars to slide sideways through corners while maintaining control. The goal is to achieve perfect angles, speed, and fluidity as the vehicle's rear wheels lose traction, creating dramatic smoke from tire friction. Originating in Japan, drifting has grown into a global phenomenon with professional competitions like Formula Drift. Drivers use rear-wheel-drive cars, often modified for power and handling, to execute precise drifts through challenging courses. Judges score performances based on style, technique, and adherence to the racing line. Thrilling to watch and demanding to master, drifting combines mechanical precision with daring showmanship, making it a favorite among motorsport enthusiasts. Whether on tight mountain roads or professional tracks, drifting celebrates car control at its most extreme.
