DRIFT MADNESS IN A CUSTOM AUSSIE CHAMPIONSHIP HOLDEN COMMODORE V8 SUPERCAR

It’s time the engineers and fabricators at Red Bull Racing Australia came clean. For nine months they’ve been working on a secret project at their Brisbane HQ. 

Aim: To drift enable a Red Bull Racing Australia Supercar. 

Inspiration: The driver’s post race, cool down lap celebrations.

Equipment: Jamie Whincup’s chassis, which won the opening race of the season in Adelaide and race 14 in Townsville, before being replaced by a new car in August. 

Procedure: Retain existing running gear but convert steering, front suspension and install Drift spec handbrake. Fabricate new flared guards and fit appropriate wheels and tyres. 

Result: Awesome!
