D1NZ Champion Adam Richards enters The Japaneseusedcars.com European Drift Championship

Former D1NZ champion Adam Richards made his debut in the Japaneseusedcars.com European Drift Championship for round 4 held at Santapod Raceway in England on the 12th July 08.
Japaneseusedcars.com worked with Adam to assist him to gain entry to the #1 European drift competition and being a former D1 Champion he was accepted, we then offered all the help we could to Adam to get him and his car over to England. Adam arrived at the end of May but had to wait for his car to arrive from the USA where it had been since the D1 All Stars event at the end of 2007. His car finally arrived a few days before the Santapod event and Adam set about preparing the Cefiro for round 4.

Adam drove his RB26 GT-R powered Cefiro well and qualified in the top 4 of the unseeded drivers, not a bad effort considering he hadn't driven for 8 months but in the first round of Tsushio battles he came up against Team Orange driver Kazuhiro Tanaka and unfortunately although putting in a good fight was beaten by the Japanese driver. We look forward to seeing Adam complete the remaining rounds of the EDC and wish him well as he takes on the best drifters in Europe.
