In the anime Initial D, how does Takumi Fujiwara describe a drift?

  • '. . . the car oversteers through a curve, causing it to turn faster'
  • '. . . the wheels lose traction, making the car slide sideways'
  • '. . . the front tires slide so the car won't face the inside'
  • '. . . you turn a lot'
Explanation

In the anime "Initial D," Takumi Fujiwara describes a drift as ". . . the front tires slide so the car won't face the inside." This statement refers to the technique of maintaining control while sliding a car sideways at high speed through a turn. By intentionally causing the front tires to lose traction and slide, the car's momentum continues in the intended direction, preventing it from facing the inner part of the corner. This allows the driver to control the drift and smoothly navigate the turn without losing control or fishtailing.
