You may take your car to the TRACK in the US but where do kids that live in Saudi do?

Saudi DRIFT!

You Tube

Source from Wiki: Saudi Drift

Quote:

Tafheet (تفحيط), or Hjwalah popularly known elsewhere in the world as Arab or Saudi drifting, is a dangerous motorsport phenomenon that involves trying to drift a car–often a full-size sedan–at very high speeds around 180-200km/h (110-120 mph) across a tarmac left and right. It is a modern version of ancient practice of camel sliding in the desert. In the process, racers often drive dangerously close to traffic, barriers, and spectators watching from the sides without any protection. Drifters usually drive in civilian vehicles, rather than modified tuners. They are mostly found in the highways of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The technique does not require to turn on corners by powersliding, but instead slide around a flat straight road and drift sideways wildly and carefully.

Often, the police receive notification of the drifter, usually by worried civilians, and are called out to make an arrest. Very little of the time are the drifters caught, with the police giving up after a long period of time.

Usually the cars are stacked with up-to 6 passengers to further weight down the car and make "drifting" easier.

hold up, did you really just compare a 1/4 mile race vs. them drifting in the street?

seriously?

a dig from a roll.

1/4 mile vs. miles of road.

safe, track environment vs. on the street putting everyone's lives in danger.

i mean c'mon.

and 130mph from already driving for what seems as miles of open road vs. a 1/4 mile from a dig...completely different worlds.

put me at a 65mph roll n watch me hit 130 like nothing too.

Actually the middle east loves drag racing.... S. ali habi or however you spell it, funds about 10 different american drag cars.... from top fuel, all the way down to the sportsman class.

And they are HUGE into LSX cars, there are at least 3 lsx specialty shops in qatar and dubai.

They can afford it because gas is 30 cents a gallon and the price on everything else is low as hell to. OH and 99% of them live on family money made in the 1970 and 1980's.
