TICKETS ON-SALE NOW FOR FORMULA DRIFT PRO CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL ROUND AT IRWINDALE SPEEDWAY ON OCTOBER 13-14

Posted on August 5, 2023 by George

 

Tickets also available for Formula DRIFT PROSPEC Championship Final Round in Utah on September 14-16 at formulad.com

Every year Formula DRIFT alerts fans that tickets for the PRO Championship Final Round at Irwindale Speedway are available from the website. It does so because every year the series organizers are contacted by disappointed fans unable to buy tickets for the event that has sold out ever since its inception in 2004. And with the 20th Anniversary season as tight as ever, it’s expected that the Championship title won’t be decided until the Final Round.

Closing out the 20th season with a bang, the Irwindale Round will feature a spectacular Saturday night firework display and the organizers have planned plenty of surprises, special appearances, and more.

In addition to the excitement generated by the 20th Anniversary and the new features that have kept fans even better informed about what’s happening both on and off the track, there is one big question yet to be answered at Irwindale, the House of Drift: Will the series crown its first four-time Champion or a first-time Champion?

VAUGHN GITTIN JR WINS ROUND 2 OF 2023 FORMULA DRIFT PRO CHAMPIONSHIP IN ATLANTA, HANSEN WINS PROSPEC ROUND 1

Posted on May 15, 2023 by Toxic

Returning to the track where it all began 20 years ago, Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta has always been a special place Formula DRIFT teams and fans. The natural amphitheater created by the purpose-built course plunges up- and downhill, making it unique among the scheduled venues. It’s the only course where drivers start and finish at the same place, providing spectators with an unimpeded view of all the action.

Recognizing the significance of the 20th Anniversary season, a number of key drivers have returned to the series. They would play a decisive role in the Formula DRIFT PRO Championship Round 2: TYPE S Road to the Championship presented by AutoZone. And it would play out in front of the largest crowd in the event’s 20-year history.

Fans were also treated to the opening round of the Link ECU PROSPEC Championship, which brought its own brand of fireworks. As the feeder category for the PRO Championship, this is where future champions cut their teeth and, as always, the Rookie drivers played a significant role.

Despite the threat of rain, the track remained dry throughout qualifying and competition, giving drivers their chance to shine

INTRODUCING THE OUTERZONE: THE OFFICIAL PODCAST OF FORMULA DRIFT

Posted on February 27, 2023 by Toxic

 


To mark its 20th anniversary, Formula DRIFT is undertaking a number of new initiatives including the launch of The Outerzone: the Official Podcast of Formula DRIFT. It will be hosted by Jacob Gettins who has been a vocal exponent of the drifting community for more than ten years. As the host of the Pistonhead podcast, Jacob interviewed many of the leading drift personalities and will be bringing all his knowledge and experience to The Outerzone.


The Outerzone will create both long-form pre-event podcasts and a post-race interview show. These will feature Formula DRIFT PRO and PROSPEC drivers, FD staffers, and some of the sport’s biggest personalities from across the automotive industry.

In the true spirit of the sport, The Outerzone will cut through the tire smoke and fully immerse fans in the world of Formula DRIFT in its raw state. No scripts, no pre-approved talking points.

“I’m incredibly excited to sit down with drivers of today and yesteryear to ask the questions fans want to know,”Jacob said. “Formula DRIFT has such a rich history and there are so many people eager to be part of it.”

The first episodes will be available from March 1 featuring interviews with personalities including 2022 Champion Fredric Aasbo, Matt Field, Judge Ryan Lanteigne and President of Formula DRIFT, Ryan Sage. Future episodes will take an in-depth look at the Formula DRIFT pre-season, discussing many of the hot topics such as new cars and new faces.

The podcast will be available on all major podcast platforms and through the Formula DRIFT Youtube channel at youtube.com/formuladrift. Head over to formulad.com/podcast now to be notified as soon as the first episodes are available for download. Fans will also be able to sign up for a premium subscription option at a later date, which will allow early access to the episodes.

“We’re extremely happy to announce the new Formula DRIFT podcast,” said Ryan Sage, FD President. “We’re also excited to have Jacob leading the project. He brings a wealth of experience and we’re confident our fans will love this new project, which will give them more behind-the-scenes access than ever before.”

The Outerzone podcast is produced by Jacob Gettins, Formula DRIFT and Frank Maguire.

QUALIFYING RESULTS FROM ROUND 8 OF 2022 FORMULA DRIFT PRO CHAMPIONSHIP AT IRWINDALE SPEEDWAY

Posted on October 14, 2022 by George

QUALIFYING RESULTS FROM ROUND 8 OF 2022 FORMULA DRIFT PRO CHAMPIONSHIP AT IRWINDALE SPEEDWAY

EVENT DETAILS

Date: Friday, October 14, 2022

Location: Irwindale Speedway, Irwindale, CA

Event: Formula DRIFT PRO Championship Round 8: Title Fight

RESULTS FROM FD PRO QUALIFYING

  1. Fredric Aasbo (Norway) – Rockstar Energy Toyota GR Supra
  2. Wataru Masuyama (Japan) – Buy Now Japan Nissan Silvia S15
  3. Branden Sorensen (USA) – US Air Force / Sorensen Motorsports BMW

NOTES

  • The track at Irwindale Speedway reverted to the 2019 layout, giving drivers a new challenge and allowing each run to end facing the main grandstand and the event judges
  • The weather was cool and cloudy for the FD PRO K&N Knockout Qualifying session
  • For yet another season, Formula DRIFT Irwindale sold out on both Friday and Saturday as fans came out to see the Championship decided
  • Qualifying first with a 91-point run, Aasbo gained three valuable Championship points, narrowing the gap to title leader Field from 14 to 11 points as they go into the competition heats on Saturday
  • Masuyama on 88 points and 18 year-old Sorensen on 87 both achieved their best qualifying results to date with very respectable runs
  • Qualifying fourth, Matt Field (USA) scored no points in K&N Knockout Qualifying driving his Drift Cave / Falken Tire C6 Corvette. He scored the same 87 points as Sorensen but lost out with an inferior style score
  • Top Rookie qualifier was Nick Noback (USA) who qualified 20th in the KoruWorks E46 BMW. He sits third in the Rookie title chase behind Mike Power (USA) and Daniel Stuke (USA). All three scored 78 points in K&N Knockout Qualifying but Noback had the superior style points
  • 35 drivers attempted to qualify for the Top 32 competition heats, which meant three would be eliminated. After the Knockout Qualifying Format (KQF), Kazuya Taguchi (Japan), Taylor Hull (USA) and Trenton Beechum (USA) took an early bath
  • Even before the competition began, Toyota had amassed enough points to claim the 2022 Formula DRIFT Auto Cup title thanks in particular to powerful performances from Aasbo, Ryan Tuerck (USA), Ken Gushi (Japan) and Kazuya Taguchi (Japan)
