You see these guys out there, drifting, attacking the pavement, slamming gears and unfortunately sometimes slamming walls. However what does it take to build a competitive, high horsepower, completely capable drift machine from the ground up? What kind of parts does it take? How long does it take to build a drift car?
Nate Hamilton and team from Enjuku Racing are taking you on this very voyage in a new video series they have, appropriately called, “Behind The Build”. Along the way they will show you what is involved from taking a car and building it into a “race car”. See the time it takes, the parts they use and even pick up some tips that you can use on your very own drift car.
In this first episode Nate shows you the tear down of his original S13 chassis. It was the one that took him from enthusiast to Formula Drift Pro competitions. Even though it was a dedicated drift car, he really details the tear down of the vehicle. The intention is to strip away all the bad, and build a vehicle from the ground up that is 100% racecar, without any unneeded materials, with a top of the line experienced crew.
It’s a great series, check it out! Nate Hamilton, Kevin Lawrence and Josh McGuire of Enjuku Racing are all drifting on Konig Hypergram wheels for the 2016 season. They run 17×9 et25 in the front and 18×9.5 et 25 in the rear!
ENJOY!!
