Formula Drift: Action-Packed & Fuel-Efficient
by MPGOMATIC
If you’ve never seen professional drift racing, you’re in for an action-packed treat. It’s a ballet on wheels: loud, smokey, beautiful, and remarkably fuel-efficient.
The racing is nearly non-stop, with just two cars on the track at a time … there’s no checkered flag and the judges honor the crowd’s request to run “one more time!”
http://MPGomatic.com caught up with a handful of top-notch drifers at round three of Formula Drift at the historic Wall Stadium, in Wall, New Jersey.
Many thanks to Samuel Hubinette, Vaughn Gittin Jr., Rhys Millen, Kyle Mohan, Andrew Comrie-Picard, and Charles Ng for letting us know why they love the sport, and for the folks at Formula Drift and Wall Stadium for their help in shooting this iReport.
