HIGHLIGHTS | RD 7: Formula DRIFT Utah 2022

Going to the highest finishing European car running the SCP Euro logo. Here we go, Dmitri Brutski chasing down Robert Thorne. Robert Thorne initiates. Here goes Thorne tight on that inside clip. Brutski swings wide. Brutski annihilating that first outside zone. And Brutski coming in tight here on that second inside clip. Thorne using all the course. And then Thorne into that final outside zone. A lot of gravel being thrown up there by Robert Thorne. Casey Cole's out front. He gets a fresh air first. Casey Cole initiates. Into that first clip. Big swing around that first clip. Into the first outside zone. Transition to the second. Oh, a correction by Thorne. A correction by Thorne. Now bringing it into that second inside clip. We'll see how drastic or dramatic that was for Thorne. He dives into the inside. Thorne. Casey Cole. Oh, and Cole. Looks like, oh, he did cross the finish line, but man. All right. Robert Thorne will lead all BMW battle. Remember, the FCP Euro Cup up for grabs. As here we go into that first inside clip. Into that first outside zone. Big angle there from Thorne. He's got to be feeling a lot of confidence right now. We can see Elton, the rocket man, on the hood, or the roof, excuse me, of the TNVC BMW. And Blake Olsen brings it across. Here we go. This is a big battle right here. Rome Charpentier will lead. Garage is sick. BMW, like I said, second in E-Town. Matt Field has yet to win an event, but he currently leads the championship. Come to that first inside clip. Both of them wrapped around it. Approach that first outside zone. Now in the second outside zone. Rome dialing in. See a little handbrake pull. Then looks like Matt Field center punching that second inside clip. Now coming to that final outside zone. How are they going to handle it? Rome Charpentier. He gets all the way out there. Matt Field comes up just a bit short. So I'll tell you what. A good lead. Travis Reeder sits on a major advantage, and he gets the clean air. Dean Carney really needs to step it up here. 97.4 miles per hour. Again, not a unit of measure and not a judge criteria, but just obviously it's pretty amazing speeds. And then throwing it sideways. So Travis Reeder on that second inside clip. Dean Carney. Whoa, big wide swing. Now Travis Reeder gets it into that final outside zone. And Dean Carney brings it to S15. Ryan Turk chasing him down to 99. 102. 102 miles per hour. Mike Power talking about, hey, you know what? I don't care how long you've been here. I'm going to try to disrupt. Mike Power transitions into that second outside zone. Ryan Turk tries to dive in. Is he too aggressive? Let's take a look at this here on that second outside zone. Going and approaching that final outside zone. Ryan Turk goes off course. And Ryan Turk explodes going to that third outside zone. Let's make sure he's okay. Came to a halt. That was his run. So he's sitting on incomplete. Simon Olsen could enter into the great eight for the first time. Oh, look at Castro. You can see him shimmying his way in that chase position. Simon Olsen fills that first outside zone. The second outside zone. A Norwegian troop champion coming to us from Norway. Piling that 2JZ. Boost race fuel. Supra. Look at Castro. This is what he needs to do. But I think it's going to be too little too late. Some shimmying in that chase position. And brings it across the line. Here we go. This is a big battle here. Matt Field sitting on that deficit. But he does have the clean air. He's going to throw down a gangster run. And Ken Gushi, he's got to play it strategic. Matt Field goes now into that second outside zone. Ken Gushi would love to play spoiler. A big straight in there by Ken Gushi. Oh. And that's going to be all she wrote. That front left potentially was not prepared adequately for Matt Field. It could have been an issue there. The front could have been binding up. It's a little secret sauce, like I said. Here we go. Taylor Hole. See if he can live up to that intimidator spirit. The 97-mile-per-hour entry. Chelsea DeNova right there sticking it to the door. An all-American battle. Vet versus Stang. Chelsea DeNova attacks. Goes for the—oh, doctor. We saw contact. Let's see the line and what went down here. You can see, obviously, the battle damage on that left-hand side. We've got a clean start here. The all-new NOS Energy Drink Nissan Z initiating. Big, nasty initiation. Odi Bakshi's right there pushing him. Looks like maybe contact there will get the eye in the sky view from our U.S. Air Force replay. Odi Bakshi slides to the side of Chris Forsberg, keeping the angle and pushing around. Now transitioning into that final outside zone. Odi Bakshi absolutely tuned up. Dialing into that last outside zone. Oh, doctor. Look at these guys. Wow. What an absolute bonkers run. Kazuya Toguchi out front. Up garage. ISR performance. GT radio. GT86 in that first inside clip. You can see Osbo in the pocket, but back there quite a bit. Let's see how he handles this. Kazuya Toguchi in that second outside zone. Little bit of distance between them. Osbo dials it in. Really well done on that second inside clip. Now transition to that last outside zone. Kazuya Toguchi. You can see him parking it right in the box. Osbo gets right next to him. Bashed him on the side. Out front. And what does Dylan have for the Goosh? Initiating 100 miles per hour. Pass that inside clip. Well done. Good execution by Gooshie out front. Transitioning out. Oh, there we go. More contact. That gosh dang smoke signal. So contact was made. Oh, smoke signal. And that combination, that sun. So imagine going in. We're looking directly in the sun. I mean, that was a combination of. First battle for Link Engine Management. Grading. Osbo will lead, being our number one qualifier. Mike Power bringing up the rear. Coming into view. Oh, Mike Power overshoots it. A wide swing there by Power. Osbo now goes in that second outside zone. And oh, my goodness. Mike Power goes off course. Into the wall, Jared. Into the fencing with the signage on it. Holy cow. Mike Power shoots off to the left. Want to make sure he's OK. Osbo in that Rockstar energy drink. Both these guys on ditto tires. Simultaneous initiation. 109, baby. Oh, doctor. Come on now. First outside zone. Transitioning into the second outside zone. Fredrick Osbo with the goal. Oh, knocks him out. Throws some more angle on it. Chelsea stays in it. Holy cow. With the assist on the drift. Chelsea Lopez standing in it. You saw Osbo come from the rear. A little gravel being thrown up. I have never seen the Scotty Pippen assist. He gave him a little bump up. Holy cow. Round seven. The Type S elevated. Presented by AutoZone. The Goosh gets the victory in a celebratory lap. 96 miles per hour as he rips into that Goosh inside clip. Layout, listen. Here's your winner in Salt Lake City, Utah. Goosh.
