Join us on Wednesday, April 8th for NIGHT SCHOOL: Drift Alliance
NIGHT SCHOOL returns with a deep dive into Drifting, a world that sits at the very roots of Race Service. Many of the founders of Race Service come from drifting, so this is a conversation that feels very close to home.
This time, we’ll be joined by three guests and friends of Race Service: Vaughn Gittin Jr, Chris Forsberg and Ryan Tuerck. Alongside their individual histories in the sport, they also share a unique history with each other as the core members of Drift Alliance.
NIGHT SCHOOL is Race Service’s live talk series. A forum where icons, innovators and changemakers share their stories with a live audience. This edition will explore the story of these three icons of international drifting, while also tracing the story of drifting in the U.S. itself: how it came from Japan and evolved into a professional motorsport.
We’ll get into how each of them came from being young drift enthusiasts from regular backgrounds, took a dream and made it real, started competing, and what they learned along the way. We’ll also talk about how they landed their main sponsorship deals, how they became factory supported drivers with Ford, Nissan, and Toyota respectively, and how they’ve sustained long careers from the beginning of Formula D through to now.
This is a subject that is very dear to the hearts of Race Service, and we’re genuinely excited to sit down with these icons of the sport.
RSVP Only. Limited spots available. Rideshare recommended.
Complimentary beverages; food available for purchase.
6:30pm - Doors open
