Awesome footage from first round of Formula Drift

The 11th season of the Formula Drift series, the United State’s premier drifting championship, kicked off earlier this month with Chris Fostberg taking victory in a Nissan 370Z.

Formula Drift, also known as Formula D, features a wide variety of cars from different automakers including the BMW M3, Nissan 240SX, Ford Mustang, Scion FR-S and many others.

The first round of the season was preceded by a Media Day where various media personalities are able to get up close and spend time with the cars, drivers, and maybe get a ride along or two. Today, we bring you footage from the Media Day which seems like an exciting event in its own right.
