The drift mecca: 3 matsuri a year, the EDS series, and official English entry documents. Rental drift cars and tuition come from independent operators here — The Sideways Experience (¥125,000–225,000 per car/day), JDM Drift School 翔, Japan Drift Rentals, KMS (linked from the circuit’s own site) — while Fukushima Prefecture’s own tourism site sells a 45-minute drift-taxi ride at ¥50,000 per car for up to three people, the cheapest legitimate way to feel it. Note Powervehicles does NOT rent or loan cars despite what older English blogs say.

Confirmed dates from our drift calendar, each checked against the organiser’s own page.
