European Drift Championship

The Pirelli European Drift Championship (abbreviated as EDC) was a drifting series held each year throughout the United Kingdom. It was introduced in 2007 following the collapse of the D1 Great Britain series which in turn replaced the Autoglym Drift Championship.

2008 saw the introduction of a new [Pro-Am] series, 'The British Drift Championship' (BDC), The British Drift Championship. In 2009 the BDC and EDC partnership ended and now the BDC is considered a professional series.

In 2010 the championship organisers made the controversial move to change from a Top 16 to a Top 8 invitational format. The championship featured only 8 drivers who were all sponsored by Pirelli Tires. All championship rounds became part of the Modified Live car shows alongside the UK Time Attack series.

At the end of the 2012 season, the championship folded due to drivers moving over to the British Drift Championship and Modified Live events now only feature drift demonstrations rather than full competitions.
