Event Coverage Adam Gordon

At the 6th round of Formula DRIFT 2024 at Evergreen Speedway in Monroe, Washington, PASMAG was once again hosting our Tuning365 Showcase for attendees and fans alike in the Seattle area. Featuring more than 40 of the area's coolest street-driven builds and drift cars, you guys really brought out the eye candy for us and the Formula DRIFT attendees to enjoy!
