The Singapore event will be held on April 24th and the Singapore Formula Drift Series has announced Dai Yoshihara to be one of three judges for the total of four events to be held in 2010. Earlier this year, Dai was invited by one of the local competitors to fly to Singapore to give instruction and advice in Drifting to some of the drivers who will be competing in April. “Having Daijiro sit beside me as a I drifted was a huge help as he could correct my mistakes on the spot and improve my technique faster,” explains Jason Tan, a Formula D competitor.“During the day long training session, I was able to help them correct their techniques and adopt the right habits,” Yoshihara commented on the practice/training day. “The drivers in Singapore have really improved their skills over the years. Being out here really shows how much Drifting has grown…it’s really world wide!”The first event of the year will be held at the Formula 1 Pit Building with 45 competitors drifting around turns 1, 2, and 3.
