Drifting fans can brace for a humdinger of a showdown when the hotly contested SupaDrift Series comes to a roaring crescendo with the Series 06 finals at Carnival City on September 29 and 30.
The 2017 championship has seen stiff competition and it all culminates in the last weekend battle.
“This finale will set the tone for next season, with close tandems and insane driving leading up to the final prize-giving,” says Mikey Skelton, XS Promotions marketing director and co-founder of the SupaDrift Series.
Driver Jim McFarlane will certainly bring the challenge to the rest of the talented field.
Challenger Paolo Gouveia has much to prove in this final round for 2017.
Gouveia says he has massive respect for his competitors and knows he has to make it count on the blacktop on competition day.
Gavin Puren, who stands a chance to be on the podium after the final event says: “Nobody can afford to rest.
“It’s the most competitive drift season yet and anything can happen; the current track layouts are so challenging so we will have to be on point to impress the judges and keep the competition at bay.”
“When it comes to ‘motortainment’ and burning tires, this is it,” says series partner, Johanetta Greeff.
“We love to demonstrate what we are capable of when subjected to extreme situations and with drifting, there are similar accounts of extreme tyre slaying and abuse to show-off our brands’ rubber capacities; it’s a motorsport with serious entertainment value.”
Carnival City’s marketing manager, Michelle Smith says the SupaDrift Series has tremendous spectator value and this culminating event promises all out skidding action.
“Be there for an action-packed ‘motortainment’ at its very best,” she says.
