On June 10th, 2024, Showtime Speedway hosted a truly unique competition that went beyond the usual drifting challenges. This event focused on engaging the crowd and showcasing the fun and versatility of drifting.
The competition kicked off with a smoke show. Drivers utilized the full track, skirting close to the walls, creating massive clouds of smoke, and putting on a spectacular show for the audience. Following that, drivers took on the parking challenge, performing two donuts around cones and then executing a close-proximity parallel park, all while drifting. The winner was the driver who parked closest within the designated space.
A break in the middle allowed spectators to ride along with the drivers, giving them a firsthand experience of the thrill of drifting. The event concluded with a tandem section, where drivers showcased their synchronized drifting skills.
Each aspect of the competition was graded individually, and points were tallied to determine the winners. This unique format brought a refreshing twist to the sport, catering to a diverse audience.
Team driver Tyler Moffat (@moffmandritz) took home first place, and Brian Boccia (@brianboccia32) secured third place. Both drivers delivered outstanding performances and represented their team, @Team_no_Tread, with pride. Check out their Instagram pages to see their victory celebrations!
Great job, Tyler and Brian! You truly embodied the spirit of Team No Tread and Zeknova during this competition.
