Description

From being a niche sport in Japan, Drifting has expanded across the globe, involving World Rally Championship Drivers, professional racetrack competitions, and teenagers having a fun day out. This is the first how-to book to focus both on how to prepare the car properly for performance in drifting events, and how to drive it effectively in those events. Written by one of the original champions, it expertly covers car preparation, driving techniques, competition rules, and more. Drawing on his experience and knowledge, using full-color photographs, diagrams and charts, Wan explains the theories behind every aspect of the sport, making this an invaluable guide for anyone seeking to understand, watch, and participate in this growing Motorsport.
