Coming off a dominating 2010 season in which Team Falken driver Vaughn Gittin, Jr.¸ competing in the Monster Energy/Falken Tire 2011 Ford Mustang, became the Formula Drift Champion, the high performance tire manufacturer will be gunning for a repeat performance of last year. Falken’s ultimate goal is to have one of its five factory drivers again claiming the top rung of the Formula D ladder, and each team member will have the horsepower to do it. All drivers plan on fielding a new or improved vehicle with more power, which the sport has demanded. The cars will be unveiled this weekend on the streets of Long Beach for the opening event of the 2011 Formula Drift season. Gittin, Jr., will be aboard a Ford Mustang 5.4-liter, its motor built by Ford Racing and Huffaker Engineering, while Daijiro (“Dai”) Yoshihara, who placed fourth in the standings last year, returns in his re-engineered Nissan 240SX (Silvia S13). Finishing fifth in 2010, Darren McNamara also returns this year, running a new Saturn Sky built by Autosport Dynamics in Charlotte, NC, losing the convertible for a hardtop which adds an aggressive stance to the car. Tyler McQuarrie also recognized the value of a fully enclosed coupe, choosing a new hardtop Nissan 350Z, which allows for a significant change in weight distribution, making the Z a far more competitive vehicle. Finally, Justin Pawlak, returning for his second year with Falken, will again field a Ford Mustang, with an engine built by Ford Racing/Roush …

The obviously haven’t found out about Camaro’s,
Mcnamara is freakin cool!
anyone know what wheels are on Dai’s car in this video? keep seeing them around and i saw them on an S13 at the FD Slammed Society show today…
they use ls engines cuz they produce the power, are Cheaper to maintain, parts readily available and quite simply bad ass.
your not really going to act like he won it in a stock mustang are you?
In a fwd its not called drifting. Its called assdragging.
If you can drag the tail around with the handbrake as well as a RWD or AWD drifts, then I’m sure you’ll get plenty of respect
K ill be a pro fwd drifter with my civic k?
just show how much you know
Too much chatter and not enough evaluational video.
song name???
ONE DAY! ill race with you guys
Falken Tires For Life!!! (^_^)
Then Why did VGJ stomp 2010 in a Mustang?
Drift should be for any car, any driver.
Drift should only be for Japanese cars.
Wow those transitions are really really fast!
No it is a saturn sky. Look at the dymamograph contour of the allihandro valve. Sky for sure.
The track they are at in charlotte used to be a old dirt track metrolina speedway
what is the name of this track?
Not 1 Cosworth … ?
Once there was a time when real cars thundered down the roads of this old world,… now, pls sing along with me: “FIA killed the rally stars,…”
Original rally Quattros didn’t have central diffs… They couldn’t use handbrake. And also understeer as hell.
I just don’t understand FIA regulations. In 1986 they banned group B, but driving same cars 20 later by worse driver is ok? They should re-introduce them, and also create a RWD class. FWD and underpowered WRC kills ralling.
AUDI QUATTRO!!!
Ja ja die wunderschöne Eifel!
Wer durch die Eifel will muss verteufelt gut fahren
