As supporters of Formula Drift, We're all for it. Part of what's interesting about FormulaD and other Drift Series is the vehicle variety it attracts. You get to look, listen and even touch(if you go to an event) fully built competition cars from a huge variety of manufactures. I honestly would have thought that Scion would have built a car earlier than this, after all isn't it part of their marketing to be and do something different with your vehicle? Drifting is just that for a FWD car, I'm looking forward to seeing the RWD build. This year we too are building different. We are packing a bigger punch with our Is350 by dropping in a big V8. I will be interested to see what angle the TC takes for modifications maybe they'll drop in a Supra engine like the one we're pulling out. With two less doors and a lighter curb weight that thing would fly.
Along the formulaD topic. Yesterday, I uploaded a Falken/Ford Drift Preview video I shot and edited from Barrett Jackson. A few guys from Discount Tire Direct, including myself got to take a ride. :) Even if you don't care too much for the sport, wouldn't you love to see a Scion give one of these cars a run for the money?

Thanks, I was supposted to have some footage from inside the cars too but it hasn't shown up, I still might get it, the look on the passangers faces is supposted to be awesome.
That would be quite the machine to say the least.
I forgot to mention before, the renderings are awesome in the packet.

Can't wait to see them. Wish I had a tire sponsor to support my drifting practices...lol. I hope to build enough skill to be able to compete in FD or Nopi series one of these days.
