They say that racing improves the breed, they also say that win on Sunday, sell on Monday. Both are clichés but contain more than a grain of truth. And that truth provides the motivation for the Driftworks Company to showcase the products available at their on line store. Of course having a bit of fun along the way also plays a part too, as Phil Morrison admitted to me. Driftworks was set up nearly 5 years ago and provides a top quality parts services to all levels of the drifting community...

With less than a month to go until the first ever Red Bull World Drift Championship in Long Beach, the identities of the international drivers on the roster is continuing to be finalized. The latest drivers to be announced are from the European Drift Championship and include '08 series champion Ben Broke Smith in his JZX81 Toyota Chaser as well as '08 runner-up Tim Marshall in his Chevy V8-powered R33 Skyline. Both of the cars have already left the UK on their voyage to California where they will be supported and hosted by HKS USA....

Another weekend and another drift series in the books for '08. The European Drift Championship wrapped up it's 2008 season this weekend with its final round at Poznan, Poland, the only event on this year's EDC schedule held in continental Europe. Driftworks driver Ben Broke Smith AKA "Bon Bon" held a strong lead in the points going into the event, and even a mediocre showing would have secured the series win for him. I found a few photos on the EDC official site and from all accounts it seems that this event was a fine way to cap off a notable year for the EDC....

You know sometimes I feel guilty about being such a drifting fanboy.... aren't we supposed to be avoiding the creation of smoke to save the planet?.. hmmm...

Anyway Phil Morrison in his S15, certainly can be said have personally increased the average temperature in the UK by at least a few degrees..... Check this video that Driftworks shot over the weekend at the JDM Allstars/Pro Drift event.

Europe's best drifters (and a few of Japan's) have taken over the legendary Silverstone Circuit for the third round of the European Drift Championship. As we noted earlier, this event is featuring the debut of D1 stars and Team Orange members Nobushige Kumakubo and Kazuhiro Tanaka in EDC competition. In addition to the Japanese drivers, this event was also the debut of Phil Morrison's 2JZ -powered Driftworks S15. If you have seen any of the build photos from this car, you will see that...

Walking around the pit area at England's Donington Park Circuit, I searched and searched for that one particular AE86. I had seen pictures of it on the internet. Painted red in some pictures, green in others. It had some aggressive looking RS Watanabe wheels... 9J width maybe? It was from Team Night Spirit, and it was nowhere to be found. I probably should have hit up the owner on Club4AG prior to our trip to the UK. Unfortunately I didnt - we were too pressed for time, and too busy making preparations...

For British fans of Japanese vehicles, there are few events bigger than the appropriately titled, "Japfest". Over 2000 Japanese cars of all types gathered at Castle Combe Circuit for a full day of action both on the track and off. All parts of the scene were represented with events including a car show, track day, drift demos from our friends at Driftworks, and much more. Just looking at the schedule of events,I felt like I was missing out. Keep in mind this is coming from someone who LIVES...
