Next stop for the NCDrifting team is the Bucharest Grand Prix in Romania this weekend! As we speak the car is somewhere in Europe on it’s travells and the team join up with the car early Friday morning in preperation for what has to be one of the biggest drift events to be seen in Europe this year.
Located on the streets of Bucharest with the World famous People’s Palace as the backdrop this is a one of a kind event. With champions from all across europe competing for the €10,000 purse the competition will be fierce for the top step of the podium.
After the success at Wembley Marangoni Tyres have once again come up trumps by supplying their Mythos tyre to use at this event.
Nigel had this to say about the partnership with Marangoni Tyres,
“After testing the Marangoni Mythos tyre in Wembley we’ve stepped up a size and will now run the 265/35/18 Mythos on the rear. These tyres are truely amazing and will without doubt provide enough grip and smoke to be up there with the best of Europe and will enable us to challenge hard for the top spot. I’m privilaged to be working with a company like Marangoni and their interest in drifting is second to none. Hopefully this will be the start of a great partnership for the future. ”
Marangoni Tyres have released a teaser video, please check it out and “like” their Facebook page for all the news leading up to the event in Bucharest!
