DRIVERS BLOG>> VAUGHN GITTIN JR. BLOG ENTRY #7

Filed under: Ford, Falken Tire, Drift Alliance, Mustang, Vaughn Gittin Jr, Irwindale  

As I write this, I am reliving my victory three weeks ago at Irwindale Speedway during the final round of Formula Drift, firstly I just want to say WOOOOOOHOOOYAAAA!!!! For me this victory was long awaited and well deserved if I don't say so myself. I've won two prestigious drifting events in the past: the 2005 D1GP USA vs. Japan and the 2007 D1GP World Championship. But I have yet to taste the glory and stand on the top of the podium in a Formula Drift event. The final round of FD proved...

Even though I have an already insane schedule this month, how could I resist this opportunity?...

I was introduced to Ken Block at Formula Drift in the Streets of Long Beach 2006 from a mutual friend. Some of you might know Ken as the cofounder of DC Shoes, but most of you know as him as a pro rally driver and the maniac behind the wheel of a factory supported, Vermont Sport Cars built, Monster Energy Drink/Subaru Impreza WRX STI that jumped over 170 feet for the Stunt Junkies show. Since our introduction we have had a number of conversations and we have always talked about getting together to...

DRIFTING>> FORMULA D ATLANTA LIFESTYLE

Filed under: Road Atlanta, Formula D, Belle 1, Calvin Wan, JR, Falken Tire, S3 Magazine, Antonio Alvendia  

Formula Drift at Road Atlanta is a bit different than the other events in the series. You can definitely feel the difference when you're there. From the look and feel of Road Atlanta's unpaved parking lot (people have to park in the dirt or in the grass, so don't bring your limited Nike Dunks to Road A!), to Road Atlanta's version of Formula D grandstands (a steep dirt hillside), you can tell that the horseshoe section of Road Atlanta used for drifting is more of a track for drivers...
