Side drafting is a racing technique used primarily in high-speed oval racing, where drivers position their car closely alongside a competitor to disrupt the airflow around the other vehicle. This maneuver creates a vacuum effect that slows the adjacent car down while pulling the drafting car forward slightly, giving it a temporary speed boost. Side drafting is especially useful on straight sections, as it can help drivers gain momentum or position themselves for an overtake into the next corner.
