Alutec Drift Stang

Hey gang,

Just got back from the Recaro Tuning Event that was held at Hockenheim, Germany. I only saw two 05' and up Mustangs on display at the event and one was set up for drift. Here is the Alutec Drift Stang.

I guess this is the only time one of those wings work with a stang. If I see it on the street, the owner will get his mustang ownership license revoked.

Ya, Europeans have a slightly different flavor on this side of the pond. They really love their Lambo doors and exotic body kits. I don't know what type of Supercharger they had under the hood, but the Stang sounded like a beast drifting through Sachs curve.

Actually, this was not a find. I shot the action pics with my Rebel XT this past weekend. Not the best shots, but I'm still learning.

are these cars even going fast enough for any potential downforce from that rediculous wing or is it just a style thing? and wouldn't you not want downforce on the rear? I mean drifting isn't about speed.

Yeah, that body kit is terrible, and no Doug, there would be no need for the Wing. You are correct that drifting would not incur the speeds needed for any type of racing wing.

Speaking of drifting, check out the thread I'm starting in a minute which has a link to drifting video of an 05 Stang.

There would be no benefit of that ugly "tuner" wing on the back for drifting. ADRENALIN - you can drift like that - just takes a little practice, (see the youtube link below). I do like the hood though. I agree with MURPHY77 - Ken Gushi's mustang is nice ! The 06 is my third mustang - I've drifted all three - this one is the easiest to control (not much body roll making the weight transfer very easy and predictable).

Sorry, but I don't.

Nice drifting though!

that is so cheating with water on that turn to help start the drift. That car looks extremely heavy to be a drift car.
