Ordinarily, Formula Drift is the home of high-speed sideways action, though last weekend NASCAR gave it a run for its money, largely thanks to Brad Keselowski.During practice for the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series at Charlotte Motor Speedway, he got a little loose, setting up one of the best bits of NASCAR action since the last time they all crashed into each other.Approaching Turn Four, Brad"s No. 2 Ford Fusion ran wide and high up the banking into an area of low grip. Cue a huge swing sideways, seemingly towards the wall, which Jones caught admirably before holding intentionally or not one of the quickest, most outlandish drifts we"ve seen in a long time. And we work with Chris Harris. He did tap the wall, but in drifting, that"s extra clipping points.
