I think this just proofed that grip is faster than drift. This arena can be viewed as a autocross.

[@paulrossner1405]

But Dirft is just More show for the ppl

[@SavouryLobster]

Grip has always and will always be faster than drifting... I didn't think anyone needed proof of that but drifting is about style, not speed.

[@pedromfl]

That's an overstatement. Sometimes drift is obviously working very damn well in this video. It was about the drivers, Miata did very few mistakes. It's probably easier to say that grip is easier than drifting therefore often faster.

[@vongdong10]

@@pedromfl Grip is obviously better than drifting for timed races. This race is a perfect example of low power with traction vs high power with low traction. You're wasting time keeping the car controlled in a drift.

[@Ryomichi]

Savoury Lobster yes, I keep hearing that fact but just never see or found a direct demonstrated comparison video on the internet. Drifting is cool but that doesnt help them win in this race. Unless they implement a “style” point and rewarded by reducing lap time.
