    Worlds Best Drifters


    Drift Atlanta V — May 9-10, 2008

    The Formula Drift Series will return as the feature event, and other road racing events will be announced soon. An expanded Vendor Village area and car show will also be part of the event.

    Drifting is a high-skill, high-powered motor sport that calls for drivers to control a car while it slides sideways at high speed through a marked course. It is similar to rally racing, but is done on a closed, paved course. It is judged on execution and style rather than just time.

    The Formula Drift® competition at Road Atlanta will be conducted in the Turn 10 complex, a right left-right-hand combination that will require the drifting competitors to quickly change direction while in full drift mode. The competition will include Friday qualifying to determine a 16-car field for the finals Saturday, with two cars paired together on consecutive runs (one leads, then they switch). A panel of professional drifting drivers will determine the bracket winners.

    Visit www.formulad.com for more information about the Formula Drift series.

    Formula Drift is the only North American Drifting Championship. Purchase a 1 day pass or 2 day pass. The One Day Pass is good either Friday or Saturday.

    I haven't missed one yet, I'm not starting this year! I'll be there both days. Pinks just doesn't compare unless you know the host is going to wreck a motorcycle.
