"Pure Drifting" explores the grassroots epicenter of the U.S. drifting scene from a true documentary film approach. The best of 100 hours of footage shot all throughout 2003 combined with interviews with 19 professional and amateur drifters, promoters and manufacturers.
(PRWEB) March 15, 2004 --Take a 2,500 lb, 450 hp import car, combine with a highly skilled driver, connecting turns sideways, at high speed, under perfect control and you've just described Drifting. The sport is one of the hottest trends to ever hit the U.S. import car scene. Unlike all other forms of racing, drifting is not about crossing the finish line first; it's all about mastering car control.
