Whew, May was an epic month for the Texas drifting scene. Aaron Losey puts on some awesome events with spectators and new drivers in mind. May was the month for our Lone Star Bash event and one of our GGP (Gulf Greyhound Park) events. With hard work and lots of dedication from Aaron put into setting up and running each event, it's no wonder the Texas drifting scene is on a rise. Aaron started to collaborate with all the cameramen to compile a mass file of footage for people to edit and make their own version. So, there are a few to choose from but I'll try to get links to as many as I can find.
The first 4 are from Mineral Wells, Tx. The "track" is actually a huge ex-millitary helicopter pad. The entry speeds on most cars is 80-100mph+. Some can make it faster, some cant make that speed but with skill, pull off some sweet drifts.
The 5th video is of GGP in Houston, Tx. The "track" is on a portion of the parking lot. It offers an uneven ground with numerous light posts that make for some tight turns and lots of spin-outs. All in all, GGP is a place to heighten your skill as a driver.

Re: How we do it in Texas!
Where do you think drifters got the whole sticker/wallpaper thing? They stole it from the Honda guys... If you wanna make your nice Altima look kiddie and tacky, go for it...
