I will try to keep everyone updated about indonesian drifting news. Especially since Formula Drift Indonesia is coming this October 2010.

Drifting is pretty much a new motorsport in Indonesia. many people still don't know about it. but it is growing to be a huge scene here.

History of Drifting in Indonesia:

2006 : Otomotif Nite Race : was the first drift event ever held in here. but there was only few cars who can really drift it. One of them is Rifat Sungkar, our National Rally Driver

2007 : Goodyear Night Drift : was the second event in Indonesia. many people still think they can drift with FWD and AWD. but more people are starting to use RWD cars such as Nissan Cefiro and BMW

2008: Goodyear Night Drift 2 : third event. more participants. one of the hippest event at that time

2009: 1. Achilles Drift Battle: was the only big event that year. but with Indonesian Drift Community being established at that year, many drifters perform on many occasions on that year

2. Achilles Drift Challenge: to accommodate amateur drifters, the events was quite successful.

3. Driftbash Enterprise was also established with their first coaching clinic event named Grassroots Drift Bash.

2010: 1. we have to noted Mr. Anton Rianto of Drift Bash commitment to build a drift track, and on 2010 was the biggest momentum for Indonesian Drifting. Drift bash with GT Radial Jakdrift drift events totalling 6 series this year, with the help of Malaysian drifters and the Tandem Assasin himself, 'Tengku Djan'.
