For the first time
Formula DRIFT history, the war was brought to the battlegrounds in
Florida at the
Palm Beach International Raceway (PBIR). Locals got to witness a "Battle of the Mustangs" as
Justin "JTP" Pawlak took another victory this year in his
Falken Tires Ford Mustang against last year's champion,
Vaughn Gittin, Jr. and his
Monster Energy/Falken Tires Ford Mustang.
Darren McNamara (who qualified 2nd) and his Falken Tire
Saturn Sky ended up in 3rd place after defeating number one qualifier
Chris Forsberg and his
NOS Energy Drink Nissan 370Z. Florida was very very good to Falken Tires! In fact, Florida was very good - period.

MotorMavens sharpshooters, this is the Formula Drift Long Beach experience, Part Two!
