This event has turned the Formula D point standings on it’s head for now! Many top 10 drivers received minimal points over the weekend. We have to say that this Las Vegas Formula D event was amazing and made us love Drifting once again. The tandem battles were unprecedented and some of the new drivers climbing the ranks over the weekend was something anyone could get excited about. With that all being said let’s go visit the gallery by clicking here!
