2017 Formula Drift Texas Recap [Gallery]
Formula Drift took over Texas Motor Speedway for a weekend of intense competition. Nitto Tire/Mustang RTR teammates Vaughn Gittin Jr. and Chelsea DeNofa (#BroStangs) made it to the Great 8, but it was their tandem competitors who advanced to the final rounds and an eventual podium. Although Chris Forsberg put forth an amazing run in the Final Battle, it was James Deane who claimed the first-place title by the end of the night.
