Formula Drift Round 5 Las Vegas

With temperatures soaring over the 100 degrees Formula Drift made its 5th stop of the Season at Las Vegas Motor Speeway. It was a very exiting battle between 32 drivers but one stood out Tyler Mcquarrie and his Falken Nissan 350z after beating team-mate Dai Yoshihara due to technical problems with his car.

Vaughn Gittin Jr took third making him the current point leader for the Championship  with  439 points followed by Dai Yoshihara with  417 and Tanner Foust wit  386.

The level of competition is raised as the conclusion of the season comes to an end.

Tony Brakohiapa was the surprise after of the event placing 4th for the first time of his carrear as a Formula Drift driver.

Samuel Hubinette ”The Crazy Swede”  Took first in qualifying to top 32 with entrée speed up to 100mph yes it might be a big car but the Challenger has proved that it can be as good as the Viper.

I tough the Vegas strip will be bright but not a bright as the V-LED/Intec Racing drove by Dean Kearney.

The next stop for Formula Drift will be at Infineon Raceway, September 10th and 11th.
