Transforming a Lamborghini into a drifting beast
This exclusive web series follows 'Mad' Mike Whiddett as he races against time to transform a supercar into a drift machine. The main problem is that a supercar is loaded with engine management software designed to keep all four wheels from spinning, meaning Whidett has to reprogramme the whole car from the ground up. It all starts with a crazy conversation between 'Mad' Mike and then-Lamborghini boss Stefano Domenicali and ends with him showing off a drift-ready Lambo Huracan to the roaring crowds at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
