Drift Battle: BMW M3 Vs. Ford Mustang GT

Drifting started as an interesting pastime in Japan, and quickly grew into an option, after which a global spread was inevitable. Years have passed since then, but we still reminisce the smell of burned rubber and exhaust fumes every time a really cool video pops up.
The latest comes from Youtube user RacingEngineV8, who was in Italy at the 2011 Drift Championship "Aci Csai D1 Stella" the past weekend.

In a bit of cross-continental rivalry that should be familiar to all videogame players, a legend from Europe takes on a master from America, with the results showing the BMW coming on top.

The amazing race between the BMW M3 E92 and a Ford Mustang shows just how balanced and poised the M3 can be in the corner. At just about every moment, it’s got the Mustang beat for smoke and angle, though the driver might also have something to do with this.
