IS 2016 the year that motorcycle drift racing become a fully fledged sport in its own right? If the guys from the Superbike Drift championship have their say, then yes.
Born in 2015, the series kick off again in Nice on March 12 with what looks like a simple, effective recipe: go fast and go sideways.
Although we've seen multiple videos of motorcycle drifting, this is the first time we've seen it done for reasons other than creating promotional videos for clothing brands or energy drink companies. This video is a recap from the 2015 series and it looks like it would be pretty entertaining to watch track-side.
