D1 FT-86’s Debut in Odaiba

The new crop of professional drift cars based on the new Toyota/Subaru FT-86 made their debuts at the Odaiba round of the Japanese D1 Drift Series last week.

First is Hibino’s Up Garage car. He is using an EJ-25 engine from a Subaru Impreza. Unfortunately, he crashes it pretty hard in practice:

 

Next is Manibu “Max” Orido’s FT-86 which is powered by the V8 from a Lexus IS-F.

 

Taniguchi’s HKS supercharged car was there, but I don’t think it competed. It uses the HKS GT Supercharger kit on the stock based engine.

 

Here are some highlights of Hibino and Orido during the competition rounds.
