There are lots of very good photographers in the UK drift scene. I think the key would be to stand out.

Ross takes awesome action/speed shots, IMHO he is the best at nice clean shots that capture the speed of drifting.

Bolf takes some awesome artistic wide-angle shots. The shots he took at Teeside where the cars look like little RC drift cars rank up amoungst my favourites.

Paddy is another one of my fave 'togs - some of his off track shots are awesome too, capturing the friendship/lifestyle of the drift scene. I like the shots he does of the drivers close up in the car whilst drifting too.

If you can do a little of each or maybe find a style which sets you apart from the rest that'd be ideal. I'm a fan of the artistic style where the drift car doesn't necessarily need to be slap bang in the middle of the picture at a certain angle. I like the shot of Phil out of focus too, although it would have been nice if there was a chunk of rubber/fibreglass or something where the focus is on that picture rather than an empty bit of tarmac.
