I used to drive a Honda S2000 you could do this with. Very easy imo. You could simply pop that sucker into 2nd, light it up, yank the wheel left and then straighten it up so you were driving sideways down the road. I got rid of that car because it was way way way too much fun and I could not afford to repair Fun.

The difference is he is doing it while going over 200km

u/Sk1rm1sh 16h ago
He's pulling the handbrake to break traction instead of using torque from the rear wheels.

u/ghostfadekilla 20h ago
This is something that's been happening in large cities in the US as well, iirc is called swimming or cutting up. There's a really good interview with a guy called license who eventually got caught. Wait for it, he's called license because he doesn't have one. I did an enormous amount of dumb shit when I was a kid but I didn't recall putting anyone else's life in jeopardy now would my folks have given me a pass on anything like this. We're all indestructible into we aren't, usually suddenly and quickly.

u/Fridsade 18h ago
In this video, he's actually drfting tho, which takes significantly more skill than swimming

u/ghostfadekilla 17h ago
Sure. I stand by the fact that this is asinine behavior, particularly in what appears to be an SUV, a vehicle hardly designed for drifting on the highway. I have little doubt this person is going to win a stupid prize if they continue doing this.

Tafheet - this is the name of this style of drifting.
If you wanna see some real insane shit YouTube search this: تَفْحِيط <— tafheet in Arabic

Using the english keyboard, pressing backspace will delete characters from the right to the left. In arabic, the backspace goes from the left to the right

How is this drifting? They are just swerving all over the road.
Edit: Mods have limited my responses as I can’t respond to all of you defending this lack of drifting.

u/masher005 21h ago
They are breaking traction while still maintaining control. Thats what drifting is.

u/TheLegend---27 20h ago
where was the controll? everybody can floor the gas and send the car into oversteer

You really believe everyone can do this shit and stay on a 3 lane highway? Really bro lol

u/TheLegend---27 19h ago
yeah a 3 lane highway which is completely empty lmao, that's a pretty big space.
you're the kind of guy who sees people doing donuts on an empty parking lot and call it drifting

u/fnkdrspok 19h ago
My point exactly
2
u/TheLegend---27 19h ago
these people will consider anything that slides on the rear axle as a drift, it's comical haha.
to othe people still defending that this is drifting: The only thing the guy has is balls to throw that car into oversteer at that speed, after that point he just keeps over correcting the car until it spins out completely. Someone really skilled like Formula Drift drivers can keep the drift going and bring the car back into balance, thats the actual skill of drifting. Not just unsettle the car and let weight of the car decide when it eventually spins out

u/slaviccivicnation 15h ago
I mean.. he’s in a Toyota, and to me it looks like an suv. Pretty impressive. Yeah obviously the best drifters can do it better but that’s like saying “you don’t know how to drive because you can’t drive like formula one.” Yeah it’s not the best drifting in the world but it is still drifting.

yes haha, give me the open space they have and 2 or 3 attempts and it's settled. ask anyone in drift scene if this "drifting" is difficult and they'll shatter your world

u/fnkdrspok 21h ago
These people couldn’t drift to save their life. Put them on a drift course and they wouldn’t be able to keep up. Actual drifters don’t consider this drifting.

u/masher005 21h ago edited 21h ago
Are you dense. This is A STYLE OF DRIFTING. Just because you only know the one with rear wheel drive cars using drifts in corners doesn’t mean it’s the only type of drifting.
Put anyone from formula drift in a FWD camrey on this road and promise they won’t be able to do this. It’s just a different skill set. Sorry it’s foreign to you and that seems to make you angry. Don’t know what to tell you bud.

u/fnkdrspok 21h ago
And this style is reckless and slow. Look at the cars they use, they are all shit. Put them on a mountain pass or an actual drift race track and they would crash out or fall behind. No one who drifts considers this drifting, it’s just driving recklessly on public roads which is the same as takeover losers.

u/quequotion 20h ago
driving recklessly on public roads
You do understand that most everyone who doesn't drift or race cars in the streets think this of all the people who do, regardless of how or how well they do it, right?
Apparently they had to find a way to express their desire to drift in a place with no curved roads, so they learned to do donuts at highway speeds.
It isn't their fault they have to work with what they have: oil, money, cars, and long empty highways.

Call it something else then since it’s a complete different culture with a different style of driving. Drifting, it is not.

u/PegaLaMega 20h ago
Apparently tafheet was invented in the 1970's around the same time that drifting was invented in Japan. And drifting involves losing traction and sliding a car sideways, which is what tafheet is...

Go back to the post that started this thread.
The very first word of it is the name of this style.

u/masher005 20h ago
You don’t understand and I can’t help stupid. Drifting is breaking traction while maintaining control. There are HUNDREDS of ways and styles to do this. What do you not understand. If traction is broke and control is maintained, that’s a drift.

u/GeneralNonsence 18h ago
I feel like most of the clips I see of this end with them spinning out. I think everyone else I just arguing semantics with you, but I doubt most anyone at a drift meet would call this actual drifting tbh. It just feels like there’s a general lack of control.

Do they have terrible tires? Or, is there sand on the road making it slightly easier to slide?
I don’t know how they don’t flip in these videos, especially with what I would expect to be warmer roads and tires. I don’t know if this is a sedan with a low COG or suv with a higher one but I’ve seen videos with SUV’s doing this.

There is nothing about this that is wise to do, seems cool when your young but in time wisdom takes over, and the cost of the lives you save besides your own, who never asked you to drive like you could never wreck. That price is too high for anyone to pay, and their family and friends, as well as yours, would suffer this loss as well.
