Professional drifter and PASMAG Drift Editor, Kevin Darwish, takes us through some of the basics of what it takes to impress the judges and take the podium in a professional drift event. We discuss the lead and chase roles of tandem drifting, proximity, transitions, clipping points, outer zones, and touch-and-go spots. This is part of an ongoing series where we break down some of the basics - and even some of the more advanced concepts - in professional drifting.
