EVENT: MYWAY Drift School

EVENT: King of Europe Round 1: Austria
Every year, I especially looking forward to the first big competition drift events, because that's when many new builds that were completed over the winter get revealed and properly drifted in anger for the first time. One such project that didn't only take one but actually two whole winters (plus the bit in between) was the S14a of Philippe "Dirt Drop Phil" Guillod. It was with him and two more drifters of the Driftteam Switzerland, Florian Zimmermann and Patrick Gafner, that I made the trip to Greinbach in Austria for this year's King of Europe (KoE) Round 1…

EVENTS: Spring Matsuri, Anneau du Rhin
It's almost a tradition that the season for most of the southwest drifters starts in Anneau. In 2013, Speed Industries hosted their first event in the first week of March.

Due to this fact, the cars showing up at Anneau keep getting better and better; many European pro drifters have trained here.
