Drift book in stores September

Yup, that's the actual cover. Cartech tells me it will be available pretty much wherever books are sold. So far I have seen it posted on Amazon.com and they are accepting pre-orders. Anyone who wants to get their copy in a store can go to their local Barnes & Noble, Borders or wherever and look in either the car/automotive section or the sports section--I have found books on racing in both and I am sure they will have issues with where to put this one!

SIDEWAYS FROM JAPAN TO AMERICA
By Antonio Alvendia
Publication date: OUT NOW!
ISBN: 0-7603-2417-4, £12.99, Hardback

Dreamed up by drivers trying to outdo each other on the mountain passes of Japan, 'drifting' is the art of taking bends with lots of opposite steering lock. Wired described it as: "The fishtailing ballet of burning rubber." Drifting has made it to the United States in a big way and is growing in popularity in the UK.

What began as a new kind of daredevil driving among teenagers, has become a sanctioned sport in the USA, also making its way into video games and magazines, anime and the Internet.

Drifting tells the story of drifting from its arrival on the West Coast to its emergence as the hottest form of motor sport in the United States. Author, Antonio Alvendia, begins by succinctly explains what drifting is – setting the stage for the thrilling automotive drama that then unfolds. A dramatic visual record of the sport in America, the book also profiles the people, teams, techniques, web sites, publications, videos and trends that have made drifting the phenomenon that it is today.

Antonio Alvendia is a freelance photographer living in California who is a lifelong Japanese car enthusiast and became involved in drifting from its introduction to the United States. He currently serves as the emcee for events held by the professional drifting series, Formula D.

Drifting is the hottest form of motor sport among young• car enthusiasts, with its own culture, stars, and style of modified cars.

• This is the first book about drifting to be published in the English-speaking world, and is written by someone who has been involved in the sport since it first arrived in the United States.

• With 400 photographs, this book is a remarkably illustrative description of a visually spectacular sport. It is written in an easily-read, matter-of-fact style and describes the people, places and events which have fostered the popularity of drifting in the United States.

him know that YES, the book will be available in Australia. Our

How To Drift Blog

How's it going everyone? This is Paul Morton, the author of How To Drift: The Art of Oversteer. I have setup a Blog to compliment my book where I will be making various posts to expand upon what I wrote.

What I have found is that there is a lot of horrible, Blogs and Web-sites out there with completely incorrect info on Drifting--and most of these come up really early in the search for Drifting, How to Drift, and other similar searches.

Well, I'm tired of it. I am going to start calling these people out--line for line. Check it out, and please join in! I want to stop (or at least minimize) all the know-it-all arm-chair Drifters out there.

See it all unfold at www.howtodrift.blogspot.com
