We can’t say we’ve ever looked at the 10th-generation Honda Civic Si and seen any drift car potential, but it seems not everyone agrees.

The Japanese manufacturer has commissioned Jeanneret Racing and Olson Kustom Works to take the front-wheel drive, modestly-powered coupe and turn it into one of the least likely Formula Drift Cars ever seen.

Power comes from a K24 VTEC engine, which powers the rear wheels, rather than the fronts. Probably a good thing, as that inline-four - which we can only assume is now heavily turbocharged - puts out 911bhp.
