Just spotted this video starting to do the rounds through the message boards and social networking sites. Filmed by the guys at Powervehicles it shows just how hard the likes of Hibinio and Saito are pushing at Ebisu. Check out the insane four wheel jump from Saito in the Chaser at 2.48 onwards !

HOLY SHIT!!!! Hahaha, we just had a drift event here in Oklahoma, and i thought that was fun enough!
Time to start planning ramp drift events!!!!
that was hardly a jump
Incredible how after years these guys are doing things we have never seen before on Ebisu..... shows they are still improving their skills! Hope these guys come the states for the Red Bull Championship (crosses fingers).
@ Paddy: That's a Mark II, not a Chaser
That's crazy drift
crazy stuff! how did he jump that much and still managed to find grip and continue the drift!? fucking insane!
Wow! The speeeeeeeeeeddd!!
This is why I love D1GP in Japan. I wish they could bring over a few more drivers for the US series.
Jump drift is best.
NO FEAR|!!!
As cool as it looks, they're light years behind rally drivers.
Go out and do it "grey", with a wall approaching at ridiculous speeds..STUPSE wtf was it if it wasn't a jump?! A bounce? lololol
Those men were flyyyyiinngg into that straight.
Throughout the whole video I had the stereotypical "shocked and awed" anime look on my face haha.
@ Alex: Have so much respect for rally drivers, but lets see ANY of them do the things Saito and Kawabata do. Not happening.....
WOW. what an amazing video with some really amazing driving. Thanks for posting!
reinventing the AWESOME!
Simply put, that was EPIC!
This just goes to show why D1 has the best drifters in the world!
DAAAAAAAIIIIIIIGOOOOOOOOOOO SAITOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Balls...
insanity. I wonder what that entry speed was.
Insane!! Saito has that 100 dialed sooo dialed in now! as for the rally comparison Alex.... is that a really a necessary comment.. Each driver to his discipline right? Get D1GP invite to Sébastien Loeb to ebisu and ask him to follow and Hibino and Saito into this bend and we'll see...
It's not quite clear why, but the D1 organizers had a little surprise at Ebisu Circuit for us during
Millen was right... Jumps are the future of drifting...
love the tsuiso action during the practice session
so intense
