Stuke Advances
“Round 4 of the Formula Drift Championship in Englishtown, NJ, was one of the most challenging events our team has ever faced—not on the track, but before we even got into competition.
On Thursday evening, right before our warm up session, a tornado-like severe storm tore through the paddock with brutal force. In the immediate aftermath, we discovered that a large tree had fallen directly onto our competition car. The damage was extensive: the roof was crushed, the windshield shattered, and multiple components were badly damaged. For a moment, it looked like our weekend and possible season was compromised.
But true to the spirit of our team and the spirit of drifting, we responded with grit and determination. The team worked tirelessly through the night—under pressure, in the elements, and with the incredible support of fellow teams and FD Tech Kevin Wells—we were able to assess the damage, perform emergency repairs, and get the 370Z ready for Main Competition by Saturday. Jersey may have threw us a wild curveball… But this team is relentless. We made it to the show, and that’s what this sport is about—passion, perseverance, and people showing up when it counts.
Despite the setbacks, we competed with heart and determination, proudly representing all of you who make this journey possible. Your support fuels our ability to push forward under the toughest conditions, both mechanically and mentally. So much so that we were able to come out strong after this at Fuel Fest Los Angeles representing with our Kumho Tire Demo 370z. We gave exclusive VIP ride alongs and hosted the HOTPIT Autofest Drift Experience.
We want to extend our sincerest thanks for standing with us—through every high and low, through every storm and spotlight. With your backing, we continue to show what’s possible when resilience meets opportunity.
Let’s keep driving forward, together” — Jeff Jones
