Formula Drift Introduces Team Drift Competition

Formula Drift is introducing a new race format to the familiar drift competition regiment. In addition to the standard tsuiso battle, or tandem drift run, Formula Drift is adding a Team Drift competition to the 2007 Formula D Season.

Cash prizes will be awarded to 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place teams.

Team Drift Competition Format:

  • All drivers/vehicles listed on the team entry are eligible to compete.
  • Each team may only have 3 vehicles on-track during each session.
  • Drivers are able to rotate driving duties between sessions and between competition rounds.
  • Teams will be driving an entire street/road course, but will only be judged on selected, key turns. (Detailed judging criteria available)
  • 20 to 35 minute session each day (Fri, Sat, Sun)
    • Friday = open practice
