Most of it appears to be tyre smoke, which youd get off anything being driven that hard.

The engine does show signs of being poorly tho!

I'm not a big drift fan, BUT, there is some considerable skill involved at the speeds in that video.

The engine is fine, he's done two years drifting with it with no faults at all! Its around 400hp and 900NM of torque
