Hello Speedhunters! If you don’t follow my Facebook or Instagram you are probably confused right now about the design of my car. That’s not really the point of this drivers blog, but we might as well talk about it a little bit. As you can see, this year we have new sponsorship from Fatlace as [...]
Vaughn Gittin Jr has qualified in first place, bouncing back after a string of bad luck. It seems he is back to his old ways again on the brand new Palm Beach course. He got a score of 94 out of 100 on his very first run, just grazing the clipping points with his rear [...]
The entire grid was unsure what kind of layout to expect for Round 3 of the Formula Drift Pro Championship series at Palm Beach International Raceway. It was a surprise when we found out the judges wanted the drivers to choose between two courses that they had laid out. Last year was the first FD event [...]
What’s up Speedhunters, It’s been a while! My last blog here was after FD Vegas last September, over eight months ago. I was ready for a break though, as two seasons of the same blog format definitely had an impact on my enthusiasm for the process.
I’m excited to be back and talking with you all again. There is so much to talk about.
Somehow the Speedhunters of mainland China keep up with the happenings in the motoring world even though websites like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube are blocked. It’s weird how the government selects which sites to block and which sites to allow. For example, my personal website is blocked for some reason, but luckily for the Chinese [...]
There is no doubting the popularity of the sport of drifting today. It took just one live action feature film staring Jay Chou for drifting to spread through all of China. Imagine having government-backed drift events with packed attendance and in venues that are Olympic worthy. Well, that is exactly what you have in the port [...]
We live in a time when all you Speedhunters out there can check out Formula Drift events via live streaming from anywhere in the world, but only a lucky few of you might actually have the time and means to attend one of these events. When you’re not here in person you can miss the little [...]
Team Need For Speed drivers Matt Powers and Fredric Aasbo will be competing in the first round of World Drift Series China in the city of Tianjin this weekend. They line up alongside fellow Formula Drift drivers Vaughn Gittin Jr, Chris Forsberg and Kyle Mohan at the event, which is held inside the Olympic stadium. Matt has been [...]
It seems like every weekend I check my Twitter or Facebook and come across a racecar driver showing a photo of a cockpit of a race car and calling it ‘My office for the weekend’. I thought it would be neat to show you Speedhunters out there what the offices of the Formula Drift drivers [...]
With Daijiro Yoshihara knocked out early in the competition, Justin Pawlak took the chance to increase his lead in the Formula Drift Championship. At this point it is still too early to tell who will take the top honor in the drifting world, but nothing will stop Justin if he keeps driving the way he did [...]
Once again the Falken Mustang driver, Justin Pawlak is on top, with the rest of the season ahead of him to fend off last year’s champion Daijiro Yoshihara and everyone else on the Formula D grid. I had a chance to sit down with JTP while he was still reeking of victory champagne. I told [...]
Whats up SpeedHunters. This is my blog from the week of Formula D long beach. I titled it “every rose has its thorn” after the Poison song because it was a great week with lots of new and exciting changes, but I lost earlier than I had hoped to which was disappointing. Overall it was [...]
[View:http://www.vimeo.com/10795581] Hey Speedhunters! Here's another quick vid from yesterday's test with Mad Mike. Mike's car was overheating when we got there so there's no footage of the badbull just yet! – Matt.

What’s up SpeedHunters! I hope you have been playing Sudoku and eating lots of protein over the past few months or something, because I’ve been working hard to blow your minds this year! This year I’m very excited to drive the full Formula D season, in my same s14 from last year with some cool [...]
