Keiichi Tsuchiya has the nickname The Drift King, and he deserves it. He has probably done more to popularize drifting than any other person in the world. He scored a class win in the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans in a Honda NSX, and for years he was one of the stars of the Japanese Best Motoring, which thankfully are mostly on Youtube.

Here he is doing some drifting in the Toyota GT 86 with writers from Top Gear and Autocar. It is a fun video, but I really was there was more Tsuchiya. He is a pretty interesting character.
