March 21, 2007 (Orange, Calif.) – For the third time, Formula Drift will give its fans the chance not just meet, but race against some of Formula Drift’s best at the third Drift @ Dromo event, scheduled for Monday, April 2nd. Because of strong initial demand, the program will be extended until 10:00pm, and will run to a shorter race format, allowing fans more chances to race at a reduced rate.

Each race during Drift @ Dromo will feature at least one Formula Drift driver, who will be practicing for drifting between the tight confines of the Long Beach Grand Prix circuit’s unforgiving concrete walls by drifting their karts around Dromo One’s slightly softer plastic barriers.

At the end of the night, the fastest eight drivers will square off with the fastest two Formula Drift drivers in the evening’s final. Prizes on the line will include apparel from Sparco, as well as a ride along during Formula Drift practice at Long Beach!

Don’t forget, all the action of Round 1 of Formula Drift presented by Circuit City takes place Saturday, April 7th on the city streets of downtown Long Beach. Visit www.formuladrift.com for more information and tickets.

Scheduled to appear are:

- Samuel Hubinette, 2004 and 2006 Formula Drift Champion, and driver of the Team Mopar Dodge Charger
- Tanner Foust, driver of the AEM Nissan 350Z, and Rally America champion
- Tyler McQuarrie, driver of the Hankook/JIC Drift Team Porsche 993 GT2
- Hubert Young, driver of the willraceforfood.com/Milano Motorsport Nissan S14
- Kyle Mohan, driver of the Team All Stars/MoDrift Mazda RX-7
