For the new Need for Speed: Shift, the drifting mode is being tweaked and tested by Gitten Jr himself.

Here is some in-car video.

Now-a-days NFS went into the tuner scene, but are now trying to go back to their Racing routes.

Taking over the world by storm is the Drift scene. Having been following it, and trying to get into it myself. The Arizona Drifters are a sight to see.

But this mode in NFS Shift, looks promising, better than the other NFS games at least. Working closely with EA, Vaughn Gitten Jr, made sure
that the drifting was closely simulating real-life situations.

Over 70 new cars! Hmm I may have to buy this game.

Need For Speed SHIFT is due out September 22nd.
