    Default 5-(7-8)-10 Formula D - Braselton, GA International AllStars Style 56K take a nap lol

    Formula Drift - Atlanta 5-(8-9)-2010 – Braselton, GA


    Words by – Tony Van Nguyen

    Pictures by – Tony Van Nguyen, Alex Farrington, Mike Taylor, and Jordan Riegelhaupt

    From Formula D “Formula DRIFT is recognized as the North American professional drifting championship series. As the first official series in North America, Formula DRIFT has taken competitive motorsports to the extreme attracting fans and car enthusiasts from all walks of life and establishes itself as the world-wide leader for the sport. This high-skilled, high-powered motor sport where drivers intentionally maneuver their cars into well executed, controlled sideways slides at high speeds through a marked course, has more than 60 professional drivers competing in all seven pro competitions this year.
    Judged on execution and style, rather than who finishes the course in the fastest time, Drifting is a guaranteed crowd pleaser, and is often compared to the freestyle nature of skateboarding and motocross.
    Formula DRIFT and the drivers serve as ambassadors for the sport of drifting bringing exhibitions to traditional/mainstream motor sports events across the country which have included: INDYCAR, multiple Champ Car World Series races, American Le Mans, USAC, NASCAR Busch North & Featherlite Southwest and the SPEED World Challenge, among others”
    Several International AllStars were in attendance this year with cars in the NOS Energy booth (Bing Low’s RMM Supercharged GS400, Peter Lutz’s Mazdaspeed 3, and Alex Farrington’s Motorcycle) as well as the Exedy booth, models working the Cooper Tire booth (Emily Kile) and there were quite a few of us scurrying around on golf carts and alongside the track getting some event coverage (Tony Nguyen, Jordan Riegelhaupt, and a few others).
    On to the pics. They are not in any particular order. Too lazy to organize them but enjoy regardless There are some decent ones in there and some funny ones too. Definitely worth the wait to load up.
