KMS Drift was back in the 'Sunshine State' for round one competition on March 30th. With nearly perfect weather, KMS kicked off the 2013 competition. Over 500 spectators came out to watch the 鈥渟moke show!鈥
38 drivers from four states came out to test their skills and to the 鈥渞ust off鈥 from the off season rebuiling. These drivers put it all on the line in a race with points towards the championship - as well as a XDC Pick for the May event in Orlando, FL - up for grabs.
The track boasted a nice third gear entry sweeper into a switch back figure-eitht, transitioning into a nice technical 'S.' This course was sure to separate the men from the boys. Some said it couldn鈥檛 be linked, but these drivers proved them wrong. The aggressive layout proved to be intimidating initially, but drivers worked through it through practice runs and were sliding hot by competition time.
