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.

 

And here is this bad boy in action. A nice little frame by frame compilation.

 

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.

 

not bad not a huge fan of that body kit i believe it`s the limited edition hot wheels carbon fiber kit....I do love the new 07 Ken Gushi drift stang it looks great althought it has been smashed up quite a bit this season......nice find

 

well I've got no love for the body kit or lambo doors, but I would love to drift around a corner like that

 

Nice hood!

 

That's about all I saw also.

 

Talking about the street.....

Hood = yaaaaay!

Rest =

 

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).

 

Thanks for the pics! Its nice to see Europeans enjoying our cars.The wing almost looks like the FR500GT Cobra wing.

 

You get free duck sauce with that wing??

 

The wide fenders are sick!

 

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.
