SUPADRIFT ROUND 6 FEATURING MAD MIKE WHIDDETT!
South Africa's premier drifting series, Supadrift, hit town this past weekend and this, the 6th round, was a pretty special one, featuring the only and only MAD MIKE WHIDDETT!
This was Mad Mike's first visit to sunny South Africa and he attended two events, Wheels of Fury in Cape Town, as well as Supadrift of course, to do some demo runs in his crazy triple rotor, 20B turbocharged Mazda RX-8, 'Badbul'. He also drifted an epic road in South Africa, the Franschoek Pass, for an upcoming Red Bull video, releasing on the 10th of October.
Supadrift was a two day event, with practice taking place on Friday the 23rd of September, and qualifying and racing on the next day, with Mad Mike doing some sick demos over the two days,
Friday was a more quiet affair, but Saturday was absolutely packed with competitors and of course loads of eager fans, most coming just to get a glimpse of Mad Mike and his epic driving skills!
It was a day filled with smoke, engines screaming, tyres being killed and just general radness, along with some fierce competition between the Supadrift competitors.
