Hey i've never noticed but look at that rear AEM 350z fender, that looks sick! I wish I could do that for my +17 +18 gt-s.

The VRT car drifting is 350ZNV's. I also think they had EAGLE1 (ED's white G35) out there also I'm not sure.

nice pics

Im pretty sure they are using the AEM EMS unit on their car. Many thingsthat AEM offers ... FPR, Air Filter, Guages, EMS ... what more do you want?

Plus, I believe the team is run and managed by AEM as well as a big financer.

Sweet pics. Looks like another Z I know (minus the huge wing, stickers, and in a different color) :)


Also, what's up with IGN logos on those. I thought that was a gaming website.

Quamen 09-03-2006 03:22 PM

I think the AEM car also sports some DC products which is a part of AEM.

Nice find Zilvia.

This was a great event Drift vs Grip, looking forward to next year and VRT will have it's own D1 car by then.

Met alot of awesome D1 and NASCAR guys. Just returned from Calspeedway as a guest of Scott Wimmer in the pits for the NASCAR race.

Incredible race teams for sure - HUGE MONEY. Tanner Foust (Yellow AEM D1 car's owner) will be testing a Drift VRT car for us in late October, going to be cool.

nice!

you guys are building a D1 car or Formula D?

mraturbo 09-04-2006 07:01 AM

We are working on a few things.

Will see.

Thanks

Zilvia 09-04-2006 08:19 AM

Oh maybe soon i can say i know a Formula D driver hahaha......

helldorado 09-04-2006 09:46 AM

I'm assuming Mike's car ran that event while his Quaife was out for repair? I just can't imagine trying to drift with the Quaife.

ActionJackson 09-04-2006 09:50 AM

i don't think you can drift without a LSD...

mraturbo 09-04-2006 10:24 AM

We threw a NISMO in for the event.

Definitely alot easier with the NISMO than stocker. Didn't matter, the NASCAR drivers all had a rough time at Drifting as beginners but Casey Mears and Robby Gordan definitely got it at the end. Robby Gordan wrecked the Red Bull GTO...LOL. Cool..

VRT Drivers in MBs Double Down Z
Casey Mears
Robby Gordan
Scott Wimmer

NONE of them liked the turbo cars, they are used to 800 HP V8s. They liked the Mustang better. All good. LOL...Pretty funny watching.

Putting in MB's New Quaife today.

That makes sense. After driving my car with the Quaife installed, there's just no way you could drift with one of those. It is the anti-drift LSD. :icon39:
