Dai Yoshihara’s Monthly Report
Formula Drift – Wall Speedway, New Jersey
Coming into Round 3 of the Formula Drift series in New Jersey, Dai had many expectations of his car but mostly of himself. Not performing to his normal standards in Rounds 1 and 2, Dai came into New Jersey with much anticipation and excitement to prove that he has what it takes to win. His new car, the Lexus IS350, went through major improvements so that it will be in the best condition possible for the race. With the hard work of his team, they were able to fix some major bugs and improve the cars handling.
Due to rain, the practice and qualifying rounds were cancelled on Friday and were pushed to Saturday morning. After qualifying 9th overall Saturday morning, Dai was paired up with Taka Aono for the Top 32 competition. In the first pass, Dai had led and drifted the course with ease and had an advantage over Taka and his AE86. In the second pass, Dai followed and gave Taka a run for his money but spun his car at turn 3 which knocked him out of the main competition.
