(MEDIA DAY) Formula Drift Long Beach 2010

[INFO]

by FD

Each year Formula DRIFT participates in the annual Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach media day. Formula DRIFT drivers get a chance to test out the street course before the season begins as well as give a select few media members a chance for a once in a life ride along. The day is spent alongside the Toyota Pro Celebrity race practice as well. This year celebrities such as Christian Slater, Adrian Brody, Brian Austin Green, Patrick Wharburton, Adam Carolla, and Tony Hawk will be driving against the “pro” drivers that include Formula DRIFT’s own Tanner Foust, Steve Millen, and Keanu Reeves (since he won the race last year).

Here are some images from the day that includes the debut of Mike Powers Nissan S14 with new graphics, Ken Gushi’s new DTA x Scion Racing wrap, and more. Round 1: Streets of Long Beach is this weekend April 9-10

I really wish FD would get their driver's name right. It's Matt Powers

All the cars I've seen so far from the tech day to the Long Beach media photos look so good. I had reservations when I saw MP's tech day photos, but everything looks rad now. Looking forward to seeing the cars in person this Friday.
