After winning the European championship again this year, we received an invite from Red Bull/FD, and with the support of some sponsors, and the EDC (europeandriftchampionship) we decided to send our Driftworks JZX81 Toyota Chaser over for this prestigious event.
You may not know a lot about Driftworks, so here we are
We are part of the small group of people who brought drifting to Europe. We've been building some of the most competitive and unique drift cars in the world for some time.
We run one of the worlds biggest drifting websites and community forums, and supply drifting parts to over 50 countries.
After the let down we had with the D1GP world event at Irwindale a few years ago, where they messed us about with shipping our own S14, and then gave us a rental car that blew apart on the start line of qualification. We wanted to ensure that if we did this event, it would be in one of our own cars. Hell, it may still blow up on the startline, but at least we've got no one to blame but ourselves if that happens
The Driver:
Ben Broke-Smith (known as Bonbon to his friends)
Age: 23
Job: Driftworks sales manager.
Special skills: Ginger rage.
Car: Driftworks JZX81 Chaser
Power: 560bhp
Tyres Federal 595RSR
Suspension: Driftworks Control System 2
Small vid of Bon in action.

Anyway, I just thought I’d introduce our driver and car.. I'll be out there too, purely in a team manager capacity. We're looking forward to meeting some of you guys out there. We'll be the ones in the mushroom cloud of tyre smoke. Come say hello
