With Formula Drift Irwindale a little over eight days away, here is a look back at round six in Sonoma. Team Need for Speed drivers, Matt Powers and Mad Mike Whiddett let me record their practice runs. FD Sonoma was a challenging event for drivers, like Matt and Mike, who had previously not driven the track. With short practice sessions, drivers had to make the most of each run to familiarize themselves with the high speed right hand entry. Its fascinating to me to compare practice driving styles between the two drivers. What do you notice?
See you at Irwindale.

one word...INSANE!! need more videos like that. Great job!
HANDBRAKE, HANDBRAKE,HANDBRAKE,HANDBRAKE.......POWER OUT....CMON GUYS LOOK WHAT UEO DOES IN HIS 180HP COROLLA, HE DONT HANDBRAKE MUCH, KIND OF LIKE A LAZY WAY OUT IF YOU ASK MEEEEEE JMO
First guy yanks the e-brake like a mad man to initate his drift and the 2nd guy does a fient to start his? Or am i just talking outta my ass. Sick vid regardless
now that was a good video clip.
no music and no slow-mo effects to make it look "epic"...just pure engine sound and real time visuals.
*Thumbs up*
shows mad mikes superior talent, that was some nice drifting
I'm sure Mr. Whiddett's Metal Mulisha's gloves are fireproof ! That's how serious Formula D is.
Mike e-brakes into to it also... it's just not a bunch of mini pumps.
The e-brake handle is to the right of the shifter just watch he holds it also.
Sick vid keep it up !!
Matt to me looks like he pushes the car out wide and mike just throws it in and lets it glide
the first thing i noticed was that this video is freaking awesome.
