Norweigan drifter Fredric Aasbo became a bit of sensation when he nearly got a podium finish at FD Long Beach in April. During his break from the East Coast FD events, he's been quite active back in Norway.
Here's a few shots of him and his Supra ripping it up at one of Norway's Gatebil events.
Looks like a four-wheel dirt drop. Cool.
His front bumper – now you see it.
…now you don't. Not surprising given Fredric's aggressive driving style.
The car had just been repainted before this too.
Aasbo is scheduled to return to Formula D in a couple weeks at round four in Seattle. We can't wait to see what the wild Norwegian does there.

drift mk3 supra... BAWSE!
MKIV*
its a MK4.
Rad.
I think he has 2 supra's. It wouldn't make sense otherwise. If he can afford to ship his car back and forth to the U.S., he can certainly afford to travel to the east coast. I think the red car is his U.S. car.
He gon' kill it! There's no doubt in my mind
Love the fact that you guys are posting pics from GATEBIL.. It's sort of ironic to me
cool as hell love the shot of the car mint.. then.. decimated!! aggresive driving indeed..
the thing that i love about this guy, (above all the others i might add!) is the fact that his second name is Aasbo, this is funny for me because i'm a brit and in the UK if your known by the police for being violent and causing trouble a lot and being CONSTANTLY AGGRESSIVE you get issued with an Anti-Social Behavior Order. . . otherwise known as an ASBO, how fitting for such an aggressive driver!
I can't wait to see how he does in Seattle, he should be rippin it up
This guy's no joke. He nearly took it at FD LB. If I'm not mistaken, he took out Forsberg. It was lookin good until Vaughn Gittin Jr. came around talking about "not in my house!".
The older paint job suited the car better
good shots! definate background on #2, please!!
he had insane angles in LB.
nice to see a fresh paint job.
This car used to be white. The old red one is still in the US.
Ya supra is BACK!!!
Imran: You're right, he's got one here in Europe and one in the states. He shipped his first supra over when he participated in the RBWDC and enjoyed drifting in US so much and left the car. Last I heard was that he's running the same setup on both cars.
Mike: Haven't you spotted the pics from his epic backwards entry yet? If not, I'll give you a hint, they're worth of being added IMO, there's even a vid of it on page 2:

He have two supras, red one in u.s. end this yellow (previously white) in Norwey...
Aasbø has to supra's. The red one is still in the US, and its getting a bit of upgrade right now. The yellow one is back in Norway. Vaughn Gettin, watch out!
Proud to be norwegian!
@ Fe3LGuD I'm not quite sure what you mean about the background on #2 but it's probably the camp or some of the stands at the festival.
Aaaaaaasbooooo!!
Would love to see him tomorrow at froya in mid. norway.
SUUUUUUUGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHH!!!
Definitely desktop worthy pictures
