The Countdown is On for “Red Bull Car Park Drift” 2014 Egypt

First Regional Stop is brought to Porto Sukhna

 

For the fourth year in a row, Egypt is getting ready to host the first local competition of “Red Bull Car Park Drift” 2014 season. After three years of excitement and thrills, the regional championship returns to Egypt with the promise of a breathtaking show during the local qualifiers taking place in Cairo.

Egypt’s “Red Bull Car Park Drift” local qualifier will be held in the highest point in Ain Sukhna, Porto Sukhna, on Friday the 16th of May at 1 P.M. The preliminary qualifications will take place a day earlier, on Thursday the 15th of May, revealing some of the most skilled and talented drivers to compete on the title of “King of Drift” in Egypt.

Rally Champion and Red Bull Drifter Abdo Feghaly will evaluate the drifters’ performances along with the jury. Judging will be based on their extraordinary drifting techniques and accuracy in entering turns, using hand brakes coupled with astonishing levels of skills, in addition to the engine’s roar, the overall external look of the car and the smoke of the tires.

Red Bull Car Park Drift – Egypt qualifier 2014 will be the first adrenaline packed qualifier of the regional championship which includes stops Oman, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Turkey, Mauritius, Lebanon, Tunis and will end in UAE. The sport in its current form was launched six year ago and rapidly grew to become a majorly anticipated, crowd-drawing event in the entire region. However, the idea of cars competing in a parking lot emerged in the 1970’s in Japan before turning into an organized sport with several championships around the world.

Last year’s local champions Haitham Samir and Moataz Atef will return once again this year to face new and up-coming drifters and showcase their outstanding drifting skills.
