Charlie Brito emerged victorious in one of the toughest drift events in the Southwest, taking home 1st place and securing the #2 qualifying position out of a stacked 40-driver field. The event, part of the only drifting series in New Mexico run by Officer Dan, brought together fierce competitors all fighting for a place in a highly selective 16-car competition bracket.
With up to 60 drivers sometimes vying for those 16 spots, the pressure is always on—but Charlie delivered when it mattered most.
Armed with Zeknova Supersports RS 300TW tires, Charlie navigated through intense tandem battles with confidence and consistency.
This latest win highlights Charlie’s rising momentum in the grassroots drift scene, proving that talent combined with reliable equipment makes all the difference on track.
“I just want to say thank you to the Zeknova team for giving me this opportunity,” he said.
