Ken Gushi drifts FR-S

http://speedhunters.com/archive/2011...-s-drifts.aspx




It's official, the Scion FR-S can drift. Formula Drift driver, Ken Gushi, made a short trip to Japan to test out his future drift car.





He also had his far share of fast laps in the Toyota 86.




Our very own Dino Dalle Carbonare was yet again behind the wheel of the Japanese version, and also hung it sideways as well. Dino is seen here driving the automatic version, which he said was surprisingly impressive. A detailed analyis is coming your way shortly from Dino.





I'm currently at the airport bound for LA, but I'll be preparing a behind the scenes post on my short 30 hour trip to Japan.

Pretty cool that it will be made by Greddy. Although, don't you think Scion should do more than just Formula D? They need more ways to reestablish themselves.

I think something just got proven.... Those are Subaru colors, the same they put on the 86. Scion Renamed them lol I know Galaxy blue Silica and Ice Silver when I see them. The Argento silver and the 86's ice is identical. cool we got something out of this, and it's totally awesome Ken did that !

Bet anything the car will have a giant, lame v8 engine and horrible, over exagerated aero.
FD sucks..
