KMS Drifting Championship Series Judging Guidelines
1. KMS Drift Championship Guidelines
KMS Drift events are judged, driving skill contest held on courses that emphasize car handling and agility rather than speed or power. Drifting is a form enabled by the talent of the drivers to control a vehicle through corners at speeds and angles that exceed the vehicle's ability to adhere to the roadway. Drifting, entrants are judged and awarded points based on their car control ability. Car control is defined as demonstrating techniques that carry speed while holding a high slip angle and maintaining the proper racing line through a prescribed course. Judging is also based on the capability of each car and how well the driver is able to use its full capabilities.
Events generally are held on a paved, flat surface, wherein the course typically consists of straight sections and connecting turns or corners. The course layout should be such as to emphasize car handling, driver skill, and maneuverability rather than performance. The course is generally well enough defined so that memory is not required to remain on course. Where course conditions permit tandem runs will be allowed by KMS Drift.
At the start of the competition, all entrants compete in solo runs that are judged and awarded points based on car control. After all solo runs are completed, the top 16 entrants will compete in solo runs. The top eight competitors will then compete in tandem runs. From there, the semi-final four will be chosen; then the final two, and then an overall winner.
