Perhaps you should check this video out, and see some amatuers, at a Gymkhana event in a small parking lot, where (from what I understand) is where these events really started.

There is a lot of sliding going on, but nothing I would really consider to be "drifting".
Thanks for posting that. Absolutely, that's what we intend for this gymkhana to look like. Except we would never hold one in a lot that small, if only because the curbs are way too close. The beauty of doing this at VMP is that there's plenty of paved real estate and very little to hit...
And, thanks vbspec. I am the safety steward for this event, as well as the person who rented the venue and secured the insurance/sanctioning. So yes, I will be "the law" on 12/7 whether I like it or not.
