Committed to Win
In competitive drifting there are no half-measures. Success favours the committed and failure awaits the meek. There isn't a set of curves on the Maxxis Tyres British Drift Championship calendar that demands commitment quite like Knockhill Racing Circuit, just north of Edinburgh in Scotland...
EVENT: Drift Allstars: The Streets of London
It’s been a good while since I managed to get myself to a Drift Allstars event. Calendar clashes and travel implications have kept me away, so when I saw that I was free the weekend of the opening round of the 2014 Drift Allstars season, and that the event would take place in London, I knew it would be a day to remember…

EVENT: Pre-Season Testing: Slide Motorsport & Team Lassa
In the last couple weeks leading up to the start of The British Drift Championship season, it's not unusual for drivers and teams to get their freshly built machines to a track for some testing, and this week was no different. We were fortunate enough to be invited to such a test day for Slide Motorsport and Team Lassa at Teesside Autodrome...
EVENT: MYWAY Drift School
When an automotive blogger like me gets an event invitation by an established company, it's normally some tech-talk event at a factory or a meet n greet at a convention, so when Dotz Wheels sent me an envelope with an invitation for a weekend in Hungary, I was really excited!

EVENT: The Scorcher: 2013 Maxxis British Drift Championship Round Three
As we enter the British summer, round 3 of the British Drift Championship is upon us. Usually our summers are brutal, wet and unforgiving, but we lucked out this weekend with temperatures hitting record highs for the time of year. But it wasn't without consequence, hot tarmac was taking its toll on tyres and the sun was testing the commitment of the people on track, it was very, very hot at Teesside Autodrome...

EVENT: King of Europe Round 1: Austria
Every year, I especially looking forward to the first big competition drift events, because that's when many new builds that were completed over the winter get revealed and properly drifted in anger for the first time. One such project that didn't only take one but actually two whole winters (plus the bit in between) was the S14a of Philippe "Dirt Drop Phil" Guillod. It was with him and two more drifters of the Driftteam Switzerland, Florian Zimmermann and Patrick Gafner, that I made the trip to Greinbach in Austria for this year's King of Europe (KoE) Round 1…
VIDEO: GATEBIL – The Game Changer
Gatebil, as ever, is the go-to event of the year. 50 000 car-crazed people from all over the world join together to make the biggest and baddest car event on this side of the hemisphere. This year, was absolutely no different. New Zealand, England, Germany, Russia, Italy, Finland, USA, just some of the countries represented out on the track that weekend. Alongside the 'regulars' from Norway and Sweden. What does all that mean? Absolute and utter pandemonium out on the track... And off track.
EVENT: British Drift Championship 2012: Round 4, Lydden Hill: Qualifying
Beautiful undulating countryside, the white cliffs of Dover, seagulls the size of eagles and queues of caravan-towing family sedans heading for the continent; all things you expect of a visit to the south-eastern corner of our fair island. Scorching weather, thousands of horsepower, the screech of tyres and billowing white plumes of tyre smoke heading skyward, unfortunately, are all a rarer occurrence....

FEATURE: 2011 in Pictures: Jordan Butters: Part II
Last year offered up so many great opportunities that I couldn't squeeze them all into one post so here's is Part II of my 2011 in pictures. The crests and curves in Scotland, international stars at Silverstone, drifting in the heart of London and the madness of the Lousada drift festival. I think I need 2012 off to recover! Check it out after the jump.
FEATURE: 2011 in Pictures (and Videos): Daniel Hovdahl
It's the turn of the young Norwegian Daniel Hovdahl to recap on the adventures he's taken in 2011. Gatebil, Awesomefest and juggling between photo and video isn't easy, but it doesn't look like he's regretted a moment of it! Click through for his insight of the past year.
FEATURE: 2011 In Pictures: Jordan Butters
I'm sure I say it every year but, what an amazing year! Believe it or not we're heading into our third year of Drifted here, an idea that was rather hastily conceived back in November 2009 to fill a void we saw in good quality, self generated drift coverage and content. The key phrases for us were, and still are, self-generated and quality. My favourite shots of 2011 may not all contain drifting as you know it, but for me they sum up the feelings and emotions experienced this year in drifting.
FEATURE: 2011 In Pictures: Ian Gratton
With 2011 pretty much in the bag as far as drifting is concerned we take a look back at the defining moments of the year through the eyes of our photographers. The UK's Ian Gratton is first up with what has proved to be an incredibly busy year. Hostile conditions, missed flights and wild dog pack attacks; who says the life of a drift photographer isn't exciting?
