In this thrilling episode of Donut, the team delves into the exhilarating world of drift cars, ranging from a humble stock S14 to the jaw-dropping professional Formula Drift machine. The key to mastering the art of drifting lies in the upgrades, as they push each car to its limits on the track. From speed to angle to style, every aspect is meticulously evaluated by the team of experts, culminating in the ultimate test of Tire smoke generation, aptly dubbed the "milk meter."

Starting with the almost stock S14, the team gradually progresses to a budget build with essential modifications like coilovers, steering knuckles, and a welded diff. As they move up the ladder, they showcase a stylish Sylvia with a JDM body kit, emphasizing the importance of aesthetics in the world of drifting. Transitioning to a performance-focused car with a four-point cage, the team experiences the thrill of utilizing all suspension travel while maintaining a balance between form and function.

The climax of the episode arrives with the unveiling of Adam's awe-inspiring Formula Drift car, a beast powered by a Chevy V8 engine crammed into a Japanese chassis. Witnessing the raw power and finesse of this competition-ready machine leaves the team in awe, with Adam's skill behind the wheel shining through each drift maneuver. As the smoke clears and the adrenaline subsides, the message is clear: while the extreme may be exhilarating, the essence of drifting lies in the joy of hitting the track with friends and reveling in the pure thrill of the sport.
