I can't find the video of Ohi-san driving a white Supra on Maze Sea Circuit in 1989 on Best MOTORing official channel.
So here's Nakaya-san driving a black Supra on Maze Circuit in 1988 instead(although he is just brake-drifting around mostly):

Apparently Best MOTORing official channel removed the 1994 Tsukuba battle video from their channel. The video is no longer in my reference playlist and I can't find it on their channel.
No link. RIP.

edit: They made this video private as well. RIP.

This is a compilation of real racing drivers on various circumstances and corner radiuses using the weight transfer to negotiate the car around the bends with subtle tailslide.
The fabled technique, for the lack of a better word, is recently being labelled as "zero countersteer drift" or "slip angle", or "four wheel drift" depending on who you ask. These words vaguely point to an advanced cornering method where the driver uses the brake to shift the weight to the front, lift the rear to rotate the car around the early apex, and set the nose for faster exit.
This entry technique is more visible on gravel rallys, because the surfaces on these events provide little grip, and therefore plenty of opportunity for slides. On asphalt surfaces, it is increasingly becoming hard to find the cars and drivers doing this, thanks to the technological development during the last decades.
But it is certainly a real thing that one can do with enough experience and outdated technology. Maybe some worn out tires as well.
Due to the popularity of the anime series 'Initial D' and recent simracing boom caused by the pandemic, it has become the holy grail that simracing folks want to get their hands on.

I will add the link to the original videos(as for the Best MOTORing videos, the ones that are visible on the official channel) as I find them. I need to look into my playlists of 5000 videos.
