In The Pits With Geoff Donati Formula Drift NJ

We support motorsports on all levels and drifting is no exception. We currently support more than 15 teams in Formula Drift alone. We got the chance to head on over to our closest track in Englishtown NJ for Formula drift last month where we get to have some time to hang out with our teams and enjoy the event.

Geoff Donati is a life long motorsports enthusiast and has been with Konig for numerous years. Geoff currently runs his E46, 2JZ turbo pro car and is sporting Ultragrams in Titanium Metallic 18×9.5 et40. Geoff brings us around his pit area and shows us what a professional motorsports team brings with them for an event weekend.

We are lucky enough to get some behind the scenes look at what goes into running a Formula Drift program and we get to share that with you. Geoff and his team come prepared for the hot days with a new air conditioned trailer to help beat the heat. They also have their tools and equipment organized and readily available depending on what track they are at.

Lastly, Geoff shows us the most exciting part of his pit area, his pro car. It may look a little confusing seeing a BMW with an iconic Porsche livery and a Toyota engine but when you see it in action it all makes sense. Geoff does most of the work on his car with the exception of engine building himself and makes sure that everything is meticulously kept to ensure everything looks as good as it functions.
