Tanner’s Going FF Drifting, Almost

So it appears that this whole Scion tC thing is really starting to catch on. EverythingDrift is reporting that Tanner will be stepping out of his twice Championship winning 350z and into a RWD converted Scion. Hopefully Tanner and team will be a more competitive then Gushi and the RSR car were in 2008.

I hope this does not mean that we will be seeing more FF to RWD cars on the FD circuit. I can understand Toyota’s interest in drifting, but maybe they should provide a true RWD platform to do so. Some of the essence of drifting is staying closely related street fairing cars. What’s next? A RWD Ford Focus and RWD Honda Civic Hybrid Drift car? Trying to give the new breed of econobox car some hi-performance cred is starting to get tired.

Maybe we just need to introduce a FF drifting series to keep all these manufactures of mild performance vehicles satisfied.

Get Red Bulled from EverythingDrift

Since Red Bull failed to take the USC football schedule into account when they setup their World Championship, I will be in Palo Alto. That being said, the slick fellows over at EverythingDrift.com have scored a bunch of free tickets to the event and have their hearts set on giving them away.

If everything works out I will get to see some revenge against Stanford, and you will get to see some hot car on car tandem action.
