Drift Weekly 1


First up for this week we have this video from Vaughn Gittin. JR took the win at this years Formula D Long Beach in his new Monster Energy Ford Mustang. This car sounds like pure insanity and it proved to be on top of the game this day along with Vaughn. Congrats to JR, were excited to see more of this duo of man and machine!

And to follow up with the win JR pulled out, Drift Alliance takes the team drift competition at LBC for the third year!   (http://www.formulad.com/blog/2010/behind-the-scenes/drift-alliance-takes-the-team-drift-win-in-long-beach/)


"Team Drift Alliance took home the top honors at today’s Team Drift competition during the Long Beach Grand Prix. They drifted in front of thousands of fans after the IZOD Indycar Series race and entertained them with their consistent and synchronized drifting through the streets of Long Beach. This is the third victory in a row for Team Drift Alliance which consisted of Joon Maeng in Full Tilt Poker / Nitto Tires Mazda RX-8, champion Chris Forsberg in the NOS Energy Drink Nissan 350Z, and Justin Pawlak in the Falken Mazda RX-7."


Next up we have a nicely done video of the Formula D LBC. This was done by Dead pirate Productions, very cleanly.
