There's another type of motorsport that involves mucho drifting, and more, with damages ranging from virginal to maximal (as shown) depending on which category and class of vehicle you choose to enter

At a guess I'd say Speedway has to be at least as much fun as what those 'hardcore' driftboyz get up to, but for a literal fraction of the price. At its cheapest and most primal level, you could for example keep buying a replacement speedway racecar every meeting, for the equivalent cost of two half-decent drift tyres!

speedway takes it for me - one guy listed as one of his mods, a pirate flag. = instant win

Here's another partial pinkie, looks to be sponsored by Shannon Noll (of flavour-saver fame)

I used to go just about every weekend down to the old Avalon Speedway, then later to Fraser Park, watching everything slide out from the budget 'saloons' through super-modifides to those insane little TQ midgets. Looked like a hellava lot of filthy dirt-cheap unpretentious motorsport fun to my eyes. These demo-derby pics from the crappy new Canberra speedway, a pretty venue nevertheless amid the pines
