Promoting Drift Atlanta at Road Atlanta is like promoting the Running of the Bulls through expensive antique shops. Â There aren’t many ways to waste more money more quickly than drifting.
Drift Atlanta presented by Papa John’s returns to Road Atlanta May 12-13, 2017, for a crazy good time.
What, you might ask, is drifting? Â Well, squander your life savings and take out a reverse mortgage to buy a bazillion horsepowered real-life Matchbox car.
Strip out all the interior and throw it away. Â Spend another jillion dollars on very cool graphics and even more on a new suspension. Â Add a roll-bar that would protect you if you drove off the top floor of a parking garage and you’re just about done.
After that, you’ll only need a leather bodysuit (no, I don’t know how they go to the bathroom), fireproof gloves, a helmet that could save your life and a winning lottery ticket for extras, such as the tires you will burn out every four or five minutes. Â Little things like that.
Why would anyone do something that crazy?
Because a bazillion people (including more beautiful women than dwell in North Dakota, Wyoming, Wisconsin and Maine, combined) cheerfully pay to watch drifters swoop down the back straightaway into two, 90-degree turns, before drifting around a loop and heading back from whence they came.  In smoke … from their former tires.
What. Â Could. Be. More. Fun.
