EVENT: Drift Allstars: The Streets of London
It’s been a good while since I managed to get myself to a Drift Allstars event.

EVENT: MYWAY Drift School

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

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. -

GALLERY: Formula Drift Las Vegas on Film
Formula Drift Las Vegas is known amongst the drift media as one of the trickiest events to shoot, photography-wise. Ridiculous desert heat combined with an all-night event, bright headlamps and no high vantage points to shoot from make it a real task. The conditions test both photographer and camera. So what better idea than to go all hipster and shoot it on film?
