What’s it like to drive a 900bhp drift car? Pretty full-on it’ll turn out, as three-time Formula D champion James Deane gives us a Dunsfold demo we won’t forget in a hurry and then – after a slight delay – lets Ollie Marriage, Top Gear Magazine's Head of Car Testing have a go in his bonkers 2JZ-engined BMW. How does it compare to a regular M3? What’s it like dealing with that much steering lock? Is it easier in the wet? Originally built up from a 320 diesel, Deane’s car has been radically modified to cope with tyre melting angles, drift battles and the searing heat of competition.

I’ve noticed the color differences to the windows between the 1st & 2nd row. (G80 m3)
Can anyone please tell me why?
Im guessing the differences in the tint % perhaps?

What episode and season is this?
Nitrous anti lag system, nice!
Excellent video with an absolute legend in motorsports and entertainment.
Ведущий с грязными ,не подстриженными ногтями, фуу мразь 🤮 Джеймс зачем ты дал ему свою красотку 🤦🏻♂️
It's great that there's motorsport for all types of people. In Formula racing, if you're too tall you can't physically fit in the car, and you'll be too heavy. With drifting, it doesn't matter because it's about the style and the angles you take, not the speed.
The AUDIO is truly amazing, especially with teh wind conditions. Great job people!
Aw jeez, I need a change of pants now
wheres the old Top Gear?
The guy literally told you he gears it for the tracks so he doesnt need to shift as much, saving abuse on the drivetrain, and you basically disregard that completely and shift the thing like you're flying stages in a WRC rally. I hope his gearbox was paid for!
Amazing talent, I heard a drift event from miles away, I eventually found it and saw him absolutely smashing the circuit. Good to see him getting the recognition
JAMES DEAN THE MACHINE!!!!
