This book by Paul Morton is amazing with illustrations showing what Drifting is. A sport that was once only known by Street Racers underground, has now flown into the mainstream. Here the author shows you how Drifting has developed through the years and steps to show you not only certain techniques in how to drift, but how you can build a car from basically the ground up, preparing it for drifting. He shows you exactually what drifting is, sliding a car sideways. He talks of who is known as the 'drift king' and tells you who is recognized as some of the main drifters today. The illustrations go through showing how he made his drift car, expenses for it, pictures of cars drifting and techniques for drifting.

This book is good for anyone who wishes to learn about what drifting is or wants to learn how they can build a car up from the ground basically to prepare for drifting.

I especially liked the illustrations in this book. I have recently gotten an interest in wanting to drift a car and this book shows me how I can build one based on a certain model type and other equipment. It gave strategies and a background on drifting that was amazing.

I wanted to read it again. It will always be a useful reference material for me when I am working on my drifting car.

This book made me feel even more excited to get moving with drifting. I felt I had a good tool in this book to guide certain areas if I got lost in the process.

Paul Morton has a way of showcasing this book in such an easy to understand format. Even if you were not into sports or even cars, he makes this so interesting you have to take a look inside, if not just for the cover of this book.

This is a great book for learning about drifting. Though it is not as detailed as some, it is a useful beginner's guide that is helpful with many illustrations to get you on your way to drifting your car.
