So i was curious about arabian drifting and actually looked it up.
the real name of it is "Tafheet"
"Tafheet (تفحيط), or Hajwalah (هجوله) popularly known elsewhere in the world as Arab, Saudi or Middle East drifting, is a dangerous motorsport phenomenon that involves trying to drift a car–often a high performance car or a full-size sedan–at very high speeds around 180-220km/h (110-135 mph) across a tarmac left and right. In the process, racers often drive dangerously close to traffic, barriers, and spectators watching from the sides without any protection. Drifters usually drive in stock 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.
Some of the more popular tafheet techniques include:
"Ta'geed": turning the car a full 360 degrees
"Tanteel": which is to wiggle the rear wheels left and right at high speed.
The cars are mostly rented from rent-a-car services, for a very little cost per day, this is also why the cars appear to be stock. The most popular choice of cars are mostly FWD, including Hyundai Sonata, Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Nissan Altima and Mazda 6. Some also drift with RWD cars, such as the BMW 7 Series, Chevrolet Caprice, Chevrolet Lumina and Infiniti M. Some even drifting with 4WD cars, such as Subaru Legacy and Nissan Skyline (4WD models), and some also drifts with mid-engined sports cars such as Porsche Boxster and Ferrari F430. Drifting on trucks, SUVs, bicycles, and motorbikes have been noticed."
