Following the tremendous success of the past four years, “Red Bull Car Park Drift” has become a highly anticipated yearly event, not only in Kuwait but in most of the Middle Eastern countries participating in the regional competitions. This year it returns to Kuwait on Friday 31st of October with heady rounds of drifting competitions, leading up to the crowing of the “King of Drift” and the representatives of Kuwait in the Dubai finals.
The competition, sponsored by ford, will take place at the Basel Salem Al Sabah Club at the seventh ring road. Red Bull Car Park Drift returns once again to provide motorsport lovers in addition to the thrilling show performances, a chance to experience high speed and utmost suspense.
Middle East Hill climbing champion and Red Bull driver, Abdo Feghali, will be evaluating the drivers’ performances along with a panel of esteemed judges. The evaluation will mainly assess the drift shows presented by the drivers in their modified cars, through the use of hand breaks and exertion of outstanding skills to take on turns in the most dazzling and accurate ways.
Last year’s competition led to the crowning of Nasser Al Mutairi, as he represented Kuwait in the final qualifications in Dubai, after taking on 30 other drivers who fiercely competed in front of a raging crowd of five thousand spectators.
