Drifting took place Friday and Saturday (the latter being the main day of Street Driven Tour festivities) on VIR’s Patriot Course, and included “bash-style” drifting in run groups for intermediate to experienced drifters, as well as drift ride-alongs with several FD pros:
? Vaughn Gittin Jr., in his Ford Mustang RTR Formula D Competition car
? Chelsea DeNofa, in the Duralast/Auto Zone/BC Racing Ford Mustang
? Forrest Wang, in his Get Nuts Lab S14 and S15 Nissan 240SX and Silvia
? Josh Robinson, in his Tri-Ace Tires Holden Ute
? Dirk Stratton, in his Stratton Chevrolet/Lingenfelter Chevrolet Corvette
? Nate Hamilton, in an SR Performance Nissan 350Z
? Geoff Stoneback, in an Enjuku Racing R32 Nissan Skyline
Plenty of talented East Coast and Mid-Atlantic drifters turned out to tackle Patriot’s technical turns and elevation, and impressive performances were witnessed from aces like:
? Doug Van Den Brink
? Austin Meeks
? Tommy Van Cleef
? Rapper Dan Savage
? Mike Prez
? Josh Lambert
? Mateen Ahmad
? Kenric Meyer
