Come Drift with Me

Drift car racing is an extreme motorsport where drivers slide around corners and bash each other in pursuit of style points. Born in 1970s Japan, the sport has now spread around the world, including Russia.

Fedor Vorobyov in his vintage Lada and Ilya Fedorov in an orange Nissan as well as young executive Alexandr Dmitrenko burn up the track in the Russian Drift Series. Why do racers spend fortunes on tuning their rides and keep on patching them up?
