Hyperdrift Northern California
Alpha1 RC Drift Point Series – Round 2, Fremont Hobbytown USA

With the typical Bay Area fog clearing, we had some great weather for round 2 of the HD-Alpha1 point series. The location this time was the outdoor asphalt parking lot next to Hobbytown USA Fremont, as the change in surface added a new challenge to all of the drivers. The Hyper organization had another strong showing, as drivers from Tengu, Drift Sector, Wickedways, Limited Traction, and Kyokuro Project came out to compete. Unlike round 2, the track difficulty was increased and was narrower than round 1, testing everyone’s choku-dori skills (feint drift) and reflexes.

After several rounds of fierce competition, it came down to the final battle between Rob and Ariel. In the end, Ariel was able to keep his cool through Rob’s intense pressure and walk away with the round 2 win.

Round 3 will be the most exciting round yet, as it will be a do-or-die situation for the 16th and final slot to for the chance to compete in the final round where drivers will fight for the title, “Drift King”. Can the current point leaders hold their ground? Or will a last minute wild card Cinderella story unfold?

As always, a very special “arigato” to our sponsors: HPI Racing, Hobbytown USA Fremont, GenkiDrift, Fatlace, and Fast Pace Racing San Jose. Without your support, we couldn’t have made this possible.
