A digital short showcasing the past 3 years of my professional drift effort. Features amalgamated footage from Formula Drift and Nopi Drift events, as well as various Nopi/NDRA demos, grassroots competitions, practice events, and television appearances.

This edit is well over a year in the making. This cut is as close to perfect as I will ever get it. This entire video was edited on an iMac G5 using Adobe After Effects.

Soundtrack: SLAYER.
Custom mashup of Reign in Blood & Angel of Death.
