Blacklion Tyres 2016 Ultimate Drift Series
The Blacklion Tyres 2016 Ultimate Drift Series came to a spectacular end on Sunday, November 27 with the stunning ‘Drift Nights’ after dark event at Kartworld in Cork.
The Ultimate Drift Series has been formed around the key principle: Have Fun Go Drifting!
The UD team created a platform where everyone from a rookie at their first track day to a seasoned professional can come and build on their skills in a fun, yet challenging environment.
Bringing drifting back to key locations in Ireland has allowed rookies and amateurs compete alongside some of the country’s top professional drivers.
In partnership with Blacklion Tyres, in 2016 the series drivers demonstrated the huge capabilities of Blacklion’s BH15 Cilerro and BU66 Champoint tyres under extreme conditions in a motorsport environment with the majority of drivers finishing on the podium riding on Blacklion.
Josh Greene finishes the year on top of the Rookie Class pile while 13 year old wonder kid Conor Shanahan follows in his family footsteps by sitting on top of the Pro-Am leaderboard.
The next event in the Blacklion Tyres Ultimate Drift Series takes place on New Year’s Eve at Watergrasshill in Cork. For more information see www.BlacklionTyres.ie
