#DRIFTINGCOM Toshiki Yoshioka is pleased to announce the return to 2013 Formula Drift and the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb challenge as Yoshioka Racing in a brand new SUBARU BRZ.In 2012, Toshiko Yoshioka, a veteran drift/circuit driver, suddenly found himself without a ride for the upcoming season due to scheduling conflicts in Japan with his sponsors. Despite having given up everything in Japan to move to the US and pursue the American dream, Toshiki was about to give up on the season.However, a chance reunion with Toshi Hayama from Stage 10 and Naofumi Omoto from GTNET/CWEST changed all that.Upon hearing about this situation, they decided to help. They realized Yoshioka’s potential, but also wanted to invest in the human aspect of Yoshioka’s personal adventures and challenges.Yoshioka was always known as a hard working privateer that inspired many fans to push the boundaries of their own, often underpowered, cars. He was a symbol of the underdog fighting spirit and they wanted to support that.Considering Yoshioka’s deep fan base with Hachiroku customers, Toshi and Omoto felt that the Subaru BRZ would be perfect for his personal challenge.GTNET, being a nationwide Japanese sports car dealership, offered to sponsor him a brand new 2013 SUBARU BRZ. C-WEST would take care of the Aerodynamics, Tomei Powered would handle the 600HP engine, Garrett would support special turbo, and Cyber Engineering took care of the suspension. Stage 10 would handle PR and marketing efforts.And so, within a few weeks time, the foundation for a team with great potential was born.VEHICLE: GTNET USA VEHICLE CHASSIS/ MAINTENANCE- YOSHIOKA RACING ENGINE- TOMEI POWERED SUSPENSION- CYBER ENGINEERING TURBO- GARRETT AERO- C-WEST STAGE 10- PR/MARKETING – FOLLOW @toshiking86

I’m not an advocate of LS motors but they certainly do a great job.

@player1_904 @dernikmatute2008 totally agree with this. Loving how some of the Japanese drifters are bring more skill and technique rather than having tons of smoke. @jdm_madnesspr most likely Public Relations

@fckjsun nailed it!! everyone seems to forget that…it isn’t juat about smoke and power, drifting is really all about technique and skill and how to handle the car rather than rely on just power

Put TWO v8s in it. Then you can be just like Jr and JTP. Who cares about style when you have a million billion hp. /sarcasm
