That's pretty amazing. It took me a bit to realize the car in front of him was not just some idle pedestrian car, but a spotter.. so that they'd know a car was coming the other direction. What's boggling to me is that there appears to be two way traffic and cars pass him on both the left AND the right.
Now I'm not familiar with traffic in Japan(?) but how the hell do you know which side traffic is going to be on?
Pretty impressive and I really like drift videos too, but I have to really wonder about drifting at night. All it would take is one pedestrian walking down after car trouble to really ruin everyone's night (and life). Sure there's a spotter car, but if the other car loses sight or if the oncoming traffic is also going fast, or there's a person you didn't see in the gleam of your headlights, it's essentially going to be death or dismemberment.
The car sounds pretty great too..
