drifting

The act of drifting involves two actions that occur in a given time frame:

1)One must expel flatulence from the anus in an area deemed suitably far away to prevent those present from taking in the putrid aroma.

2)After this action takes place, one must retreat back to the area of social gathering. Unfortunately for those present, the smell has been carried along by its host. All conversations are put to a sudden halt as the malodorous scent dominates the area.

Nate: I'm the drift king.

drift

A controlled "powerslide" around a corner achived by breaking lifteing the back end while puting in the clutch and reving the engine while also "feinting" to the oposite direction of the turn. dumping the clutch and useing alot of steering wheel and gas fines will maintin this in a stable turn. Drifting: linking one drift to another with out crashing (dont try this in a pick up, you can roll and or cartwheel, ive done both)

drift

The slowest possible way of taking a corner in auto racing. Many people think it is the fastest, but they are just retarded ricers. Drifting is a show and not a race.
Dude, that guy with the body kit and huge wing just drifted that corner, he must be a good road racer!!
