The Epic Team-Up: Vaughn Gittin, Jr, Chelsea DeNofa Join Forces in Formula Drift
The Epic Team-Up: Vaughn Gittin, Jr, Chelsea DeNofa Join Forces in Formula Drift
20 mar 2017
Formula Drift drivers Chelsea DeNofa and Vaughn Gittin, Jr. Team-Up in Mustang RTR Spec 5-Ds
It’s easily one of the most shocking but most impressive team-ups in Formula Drift. The Professional Fun Haver, Vaughn Gittin, Jr., and The Hard Charger, Chelsea DeNofa, join forces in Formula D for the 2017 season. However, Chelsea is leaving behind his trademark BMW for the Blue Oval and will run in a similar specification Ford Mustang RTR Spec 5-D. We give you a sneak peek of both cars that will run with K&N filters on their Ford Motorsports engines.
Chelsea already feeling that "three-wheel motion."
It’s great to see Chelsea DeNofa — winner of last season’s Streets of Long Beach race — as a second driver for RTR Motorsports and become a K&N driver for the 2017 season. His “never say die and put it all on the line” attitude speaks volumes and will be a great mix with Gittin, the 2010 Formula Drift Champion. Chelsea will be competing alongside Vaughn Gittin Jr. all season in a unique liveried, identical spec RTR Spec 5-D.
Vaughn's proven he's ready for another championship.
The first event for both cars and drivers will be at the Streets of Long Beach on March 31st and April 1st in Long Beach, California. The temporary street circuit will be a challenge as new pavement has been put down and the walls are always a danger at any time. Last year, DeNofa went all the way for his first ever FD professional win and now has a championship proven team to back him up. With a new teammate under his banner, Vaughn also has an asset under his belt for more data but will challenge him behind the wheel. Could this team-up mean more wins for DeNofa and a championship for Gittin? Only time will tell but if 2016 was any indication, the world of Formula Drift isn’t ready for this.
