BMW shatters Guinness drift record

[CrisMac]

anyone else think the e60 is a much better body than this?

Wet or not, im sure this was HARD and took a skilled driver to keep a constant drift for 50+ miles.

this is badass regardless of everyones opinion on how it was performed. Why is everyone raging?

its just silly.

its the more skilled equivalent of longest burnout or donut.



this is not comparable to actual competition level drifting.

This. "Drifting" today is just fancy powersliding. A proper drift is initiated at momentum, with all four wheels pushing their threshold of grip utilizing inertia to make the corner.

High entry speed, maximum efficiency, no bullshit.

I don't get all the shit talking... this still wouldn't be easy to do.

its not that it isnt easy to do.
its just that associating this with drifting using the word "drift" is shameful to the drifting community.

Pretty much this. Kids think getting the rear end loose is a "sick drift bra". Even professional drifting isn't "true" drifting.

garbage, I would not call that drifting on a slick track. BMW shame on you.

thats a whole nother can of worms, but this is a true statement.

Drifting is what homeless people do.

stupid

like most of the shit talkers in the youtube section, i'm pretty sure people poking fun at this drift record have never actually held a drift other than maybe stepping the ass end of their car out in a turn. holding a continuous drift is not only work its also great fun.

Guilty as charged. I also never learned how to juggle, and my mime skills aren't.
