We rode in the drift-record-setting BMW M5 at CES
We may be at the biggest technology convention on the planet, but sometimes you just have to go analog with some old-fashioned drifting.

I love two-seater, RWD convertibles and own a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata for pavement fun and a lifted 2001 Miata for pre-running. I race air-cooled Volkswagens in desert races like the Mint 400 and the Baja 1000. I have won the Rebelle Rally, seven-day navigational challenge, twice and I am the only driver to compete in an EV, the Rivian R1T.
Watch this: Take a break from the tech at CES with some old-school BMW drifting
On Dec. 11, 2017 BMW shredded some tires on the new M5 and set two Guinness World Records for Greatest Distance Vehicle Drift in 8 Hours and Longest Twin Vehicle Drift (Water Assisted). The company was on hand at CES with the M5, and we just had to grab a ride. If you're a bit CES-ed out, enjoy some old-school tire slaying with BMW Chief Driving Instructor Matt Mullins behind the wheel.
