KMS Drift will kick off the first of four events to be held at the Atlanta Motor Speedway on May 13, 2012. This event is dedicated to all the loyal car enthusiasts – drift, car show and sound off competitors.  “This is shaping up to be one of our most anticipated events for KMS Drift.  You can expect to see drivers with excellent vehicle control, crazy angles and lots of smoke. We have drivers registered from as far away as Texas,” said owner Steve Koss

Daijiro Yoshihara, 2011 Formula Drift Chamption and Triple Crown winner will make a special guest appearance. Yoshihara will be offering technical advice and ride-alongs in attendees’ cars, with all of the proceeds being donated to Relief For Japan (RFJP).
