VIDEO: Dai Yoshihara Returns to Formula DRIFT for “Ride With DAI”

We knew Dai couldn’t stay away from Formula DRIFT for long… While he’s still retired from FD PRO competition, this beloved veteran and ENEOS ambassador made a special cameo appearance at the Seattle round as part of his “Ride With Dai” drift demo, which gives lucky winners a chance to passenger in his former FD competition car for a hot lap.

Having made its debut as a demo car at Subiefest’s Wicked Big Meet, Dai had loads of fun at the familiar battleground, whipping his BRZ around the course before the main competition began. The “Ride With Dai” program will continue making appearances around the country at select motorsport events.
