Anyone get this video? It's made by Best Motoring and explains the basics of drifting with Keichi Tsuchiya. Link: http://www.bestmotoringvideo.com/buy_08.html

I just bought it and watched it. Basically it explains the proper way to drift, along with basic tuning and practice techniques. Nothing too advanced, but great to watch as the "Drift King" himself runs an s14 around a course for most of the video. He also briefly uses an s13, AE 86, and mr-2. Overall the drift lessons were what I expected... not really advanced but definately helpful. I also really liked the extra footage of Lambos, EVOs, STis, Skylines, and the like racing around and some shots from the Tokyo Auto Salon.

Its a good DVD to add to your collection if you want some basic info on drifting and some cool random videos, but might not be wirth the $30 shipped I payed if you are only buying it to learn drifting. Pretty nice video though, well done. I will enjoy it a few more times I'm certain :D

My friend and I were thinking about it. Just get a decent plot of land and lay down some track. Only expenses would be maintaining the track (cheap I would think for such a small one), keeping an EMT on duty for accidents (not too cheap) and the insurance (the real killer). Could make some major money I'm certain... just need to invest in it.
