Mazdaspeed Miata (MSM) Drift Session

An instruction session about proper grip driving ended up turning into a lesson on drifting, or rather, "how not to drive during a track day." Black flags will be handed out. ;)

This happened during while giving a ride-along to another track-goer at a Speed Ventures event. I wasn't supposed to drive that day (only there to instruct students) and I didn't even have my car setup for tracking that day (the MSM hasn't been on a legitimate track since May 2010). Earlier in the session (before the start of the film), I was showing him how my lines in the certain corners and giving him tips on how to attack corners properly. Later during the session (from when the film starts), the rear street tires (old Hankook RS2) I had given up and the lapping session degenerated into a drift session.
