Features

• The core of your visit is a professional drift ride-along experience in a specially prepared JDM drift car, so you feel high-angle slides, rapid transitions, acceleration, and tire smoke from the passenger seat. An experienced drift driver handles all driving, so you focus on the sensation and the circuit environment.
• You are fitted with a helmet and any required safety equipment, then receive a focused safety briefing that explains how the ride unfolds, how to sit, and what to expect from the pro driver on a closed circuit.
• Between and around sessions, you have trackside access to watch the drift action from designated areas, observing different cars and driving styles as they run the course.
• Your guide introduces you to Japanese JDM drift culture, giving context on how purpose-built cars and underground-inspired motorsport scenes shaped drifting in Japan.
• There is dedicated time to see the drift cars up close and meet the drivers, which lets you look at modifications, ask questions, and understand what goes into preparing these machines.
• Opportunities to take photos and videos with the drift cars and drivers are included, so you can capture the experience and the details of the JDM builds for later.
