Power Drift is a 1988 racing game developed for the Sega Y Board arcade platform. It is a racing game, designed by Yu Suzuki which makes heavy use of sprite scaling and rotation. It is notable for having a tilting camera which moves with the steering wheel. There are twelve playable characters.

Power Drift was ported to the Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, Commodore 64, DOS, MSX, TurboGrafx-16 and ZX Spectrum, with each version having to sacrifice the sprite effects. Eventually it was ported to the Sega Saturn with the sprite scaling and rotation intact, however this version was not released outside of Japan. It was also included in Yu Suzuki Game Works Vol. 1 for the Dreamcast.
