The sport originated in Japan in the 1970s and has since gained global popularity. Competitions judge drivers on factors like angle, speed, and line adherence, with points awarded for technique and flair. Spectators are drawn to the thrilling visuals of smoking tires and dramatic car maneuvers. Drifting requires mastery of throttle control, steering, and braking, making it both challenging and visually spectacular. Whether in competitions or casual events, drifting remains a thrilling display of driving precision and showmanship.
