Drifting - Cars. PART 4
Today I'm gonna back to the topic about drifting. This post will be about cars which are use in this sport.
Usually, drift cars are light to moderate weight rear-wheel-drive coupes and sedans over a large range of power levels. There have also been AWD rally cars that have been converted to RWD.
Despite the export of Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) vehicles to continents outside Japan, it is notable that drifters within other countries prefer to use local examples as drift cars.
A high volume of JDM imports were brought to countries such as Australia, however it is not unusual to see Australian domestic vehicles such as the Holden Commodore or Ford Falcon utilised in drifting competitions.
The American market enjoyed a relatively high volume of JDM cars being imported over the last decade, despite Japanese domestic vehicles being right-hand-drive only. Locally sold imports such as the Lexus SC and Nissan 240SX feature heavily in American drifting, however they are usually modified with JDM engine transplants to mirror their Japanese domestic equivalents (usually with a Toyota 1JZ-GTE/2JZ-GTE or Nissan CA18DET/SR20DET respectively).

Drifting - What is it? PART 1
Hello everybody! How are you today? I am very excited! Yesterday I was on the racetrack near my hometown at the drifting training and... I don't know what to say. This sport is amazing! Those cars, sound of engines and smell of burned tyres = LOVE IT! I have new target in my life - buy something RWD car and learn drifting. I was watching this sport in the Internet very often but on real it's a lot of better! Really... I was very suprised.
In connection with the above I decided to learn more about this wonderful sport and I would like also to give you from time to time some information about drifting. Today I want to present you general informations about drifting. So... What is it that drifting?
Drifting refers to a driving technique and to a motorsport where the driver intentionally over steers, causing loss of traction in the rear wheels through turns, while maintaining vehicle control and a high exit speed. A car is drifting when the rear slip angle is greater than the front slip angle prior to the corner apex, and the front wheels are pointing in the opposite direction to the turn (e.g. car is turning left, wheels are pointed right or vice versa), and the driver is controlling these factors. As a motor sport, professional drifting competitions are held worldwide. Drift challenges drivers to navigate a course in a sustained sideslip by exploiting coupled nonlinearities in the tire force response.

I hope that you will also be interesting in drifting as me and you will wait for more informations, photos and movies on my blog :) See ya!
