RE: Drive with me! High speed Drifting up in the mountain - On-board Video
Modern drifting is situated often to flat layouts and pretty formal and rhythmic tracks or figures. Mountain drift is something different , you get so much adrenaline in the first runs major reason is that you don't know the road yet. You get to the top of the mountain and when you get out of the car you are reborn, alive and happy!
This is my second pass on this road so still quite not know the road and the corners, but you drive based on your instincts and skills. It is hard but pays well in the end.
Blindness is common thing in drifting, some cars produce so much smoke that basically you don't see your opponent or the track, your instincts kick back and help again and some photographic memory also helps. It is so usual thing that the drift drivers don't notices this. It is a thing that can be trained.
