We were invited to the Red Bull Car Park Drift contest at Kuwait International Fair today at 3:30 pm. Its my first time ever to attend such an event, but it was really awesome ! Keep reading I promise you won’t regret.

There were many registered thirsty-drifters , but only 10 were qualified ! and out of the 10 only one really skilled drifter will qualify for the finals in Beirut on the 22th of July.

I must admit that I was thrilled with skills that I saw, just seeing those wild drifters and hearing those engines roaring made my adrenaline flare-up :p

There were 4 judges (2 Kuwaitis & 2 Lebanese), I had a chit chat with one of the judges and he said he’s thrilled with the drifting talents, and that this year car drift is way better than the 2010 one.

The drifting cars included Camaro, Z350, BMW, Mitsubishi, Corvette, Mustang among others. Big crowd came to see the drifters and they were screaming and cheering, yeah it was fun !

The only downside was the heavy smoke from the burning drifting tires, combined with the wind the dust storm ! I was suffocated, literally !

Judges said the results were very close, they announced the winners at 6:00 pm:

1. Salah Bin Eidan.

2. Mishari Al-Thefferi

& 3. Mubarak Rumeithan.

Thankfully the event went out smoothly without incidents, except a little accident when the Z350 hit the barriers. There were also ambulances and firefighters ready.
