- Chris Guirl set up the web sites and the Subversion repositories, and is also to blame for the SCons build scripts, XS model, some miscellaneous graphics, the GUI system, bug fixes and reports, documentation, testing, support, and generally annoying Joe.
- rookie1 wrote the automatic shifting code, and the entire artificial intelligence system. He's also fixed a few bugs here and there, and made some improvements to the track editor.

Game Data
Most of the imported cars and tracks had several authors to begin with, too many to list here. Thanks to them anyway, and in general to Racer-Xtreme and the Racer community at Race Sim Central.
Cars
- Dick Maurer imported many cars from Racer and other sources, and created several too.
- cotharyus has improved the car specifications for many models using research done on the internet, as well as play testing.
- TF created the 360
Tracks
- alexr has imported several very good tracks.
- pwp71 has helped update many older tracks' parameters as new track features have become available.
Ports
- Julian Mayer ported VDrift to Mac OS X.
- Jose Alonso Cardenas Marquez manages the VDrift port for FreeBSD.
- Nathan Samson manages the VDrift port for Windows (Cygwin) and helped set up the Autopackage builder for Linux. He also added internationalization support.
- Alex (Nenillo) took care of the Windows port for a while before Nathan.
Packagers
- Szymon Ender has packaged VDrift for Slackware Linux and has helped get VDrift into Arch Linux.
- Matthew Nicholson and Gonéri Le Bouder have both worked on Debian GNU/Linux packages for VDrift.
- Gonéri Le Bouder has helped get VDrift into Arch Linux.
