So the idea is that because drifters dont nessisaraly drive fast the wind is not blowing though the engine compartment as well and the fan is not enough too cool the motor as its usualy at high rev burning the tires, so lifting the hood allows more air to blow though the bay and help keep the motor cool

eh, if it works seems like an extra fast fan or more then one fan would be plenty and yeah lifting the hood takes from the looks but its just drifting looks are really apart of it.
