Two items:

1. I think he is a member in this forum. There is an album with a shot of his car in front of that pyramid tower that you see on the video. Just don't recall who.

2. Where that heck were all the people when he was driving through this place? The place was deserted.

Cool video, and good driving.

To the guy who claims this is mearly powersliding not drifting....you Sir are wrong. Drifting comes in many forms and is simply a term to describe controlling your car while in an oversteer situation. Sure pro Drifters have specialized techniques and car setups that are far different from what techniques were used in this video but it is drifting none the less. Applying power beyond traction limits in a corner (AKA powersliding) is one way to initiate a drift along with corner entry speed beyond traction limits, clutch kick, e-brake in corner, scandinavian flick, and on and on and on. Just because this guy only uses a few techniques and with less precision than a pro drifter does not mean that this is not a display of drifting.....so go have a good day....I said good day Sir....good day.

Would have thought that it would be an understeer situation (atleast to initiate the drift) not oversteer. I guess once the drift started it would probably then switch to oversteer?
