Looks like he is in a drifting competition at the end of the video.
I just don't 'get' competition drifting. Is it because I'm old?
To me, it's more of an exhibition than a sport. [shrugs]

Just seems juvenile, an abuse of the car and waste of time and rubber. Okay, so you can slide the car, now do something with it. Kind of like taking a race car to the track and doing donuts in the pits, big deal.

It is a different exhibition of skill. To the worse or better, not important to me.

I love how the Sunroof is open...as if he's just out on a Sunday drive grabbing some groceries.

Especially going sideways through the underpass, with concrete walls on either side.

Whether you dont like drifting or not i have to admit he is very impressive. It is not a drifting competition but just a show showing off driving skills around corners and cones. I would love to be able to have such control over my 993 and have the B...s to try driving lack that. Some of us like to have garage queens...me i wouldnt mind taking it around the track once in a while and letting her have some fun.
But then again i dont have a turbo
