Drifting is one of the fastest growing and most spectacular new forms of motor sport.

Born in Japan, it sees drivers control their specially prepared cars in dramatic high-speed slides through a fixed course.

Though speeds top 100mph, points are awarded for style rather than for the speed with which they complete the course.

For the spectator it is an exciting and thrilling viewing experience with door-to-door performances, near misses, fast action, unbelievable angles of drift and plenty of tyre smoke.

As its name suggests, D1 Grand Prix is without doubt the ultimate drifting series in the world playing to packed houses in Japan and the USA.

Last year Silverstone staged an amazing D1 Grand Prix Exhibition starring many of the world's top professional drifters.

It was a roaring success and another event is scheduled for 2006 with a full-on points scoring round planned for 2007.

Now, after some thrilling exhibitions in 2005, you have the chance to see competitive UK drifting at its best with the D1 National Championship on Saturday, followed by the world's top professional drifters in the D1 Grand Prix on Sunday.
