First of all, I would like to thank from the bottom of my heart Speedhunters and the fans for this opportunity to share my experience at Formula Drift Round 1! I greatly appreciate your support! The Full Tilt Poker Mazda Nitto RX-8 feels amazing and Bergenholtz Racing did a phenomenal job in building this powerful Tri Rotary beast! It’s my first
What up my Speedhunter followers! Woah, I don’t know where to start. This first stage of our 2010 program has been intense! I have been in the USA for over 2 weeks now and Toni and I have driven 3683 miles! We flew into LAX on the 2nd and went straight to another check in for a plane to Denver then to another connection to Houston Texas where
Those of you who are "friends" with me on Facebook will know that last week Speedhunter's editor Riley Vigier and I were crunching to finishing up two videos for the 2009 SEMA Show. You've already seen our tribute to the new Formula D champion Chris Forsberg, and here's our second year end video offering: Falkenhunting 2009. A

My name is Mary J. Castillo, Spokesmodel for Falken Tire. When Speedhunters.com first approached me to do this documentary about a day in the life of a model, I was taken back a bit because I felt like I had to keep a certain image about myself as a model. But then I thought, why not let the Speedhunters audience have an inside look about what really
Our friends at Formula D just dropped us a note to remind US viewers that TV coverage of the 2009 championship is about to start this Sunday on the Versus channel.

At the end of another smokey evening of Formula Drift Competition up here in the SF Bay Area there was only one driver left standing - and that driver was Stephan Verdier in his Subaru WRX. It was certainly an unexpected result, but not an undeserved one with Stephan taking down a number of FD's biggest drivers on his way to the to the top. There's
First there were 32, and then there 16. The first half of this weekend's Formula Drift competition saw some big upsets, and some developments that will really shake up the championship standings with just one event (make that 1.5 events) remaining in the season.

Ever wonder what it would be like to ride along with Vaughn Gittin JR in his 2010 Falken Tire Mustang, during Formula D practice? Or better yet... what would it be like to drive his car in a tandem battle against Darren McNamara, at Road Atlanta?
