FIVE:AD is working on development for a limited run of Five Axis Edition "Retro*Series" Scion FR-S vehicles. Influenced by the classic AE86 "High Tech Two-Tone" color scheme, this old school retro concept perfectly enhances the natural horizontal break line defined by the FIVE:AD Scion FR-S aero kit.FIVE:AD initially plans to offer this two-tone look in a gunmetal metallic color in combination with either Whiteout (white) or Firestorm (red) exterior colors complimented with FIVE:AD gunmetal colored wheels. Tell us what you think!

Still on a high from our Great8, debut in Round 1 on the Streets of Long Beach, Formula Drift Rd.2 lead us east to Road Atlanta, GA. Ken Gushi and the Drift FR-S took to the new track layout for 2012 well. He showed some great tandem runs in Thursday practice.

This meant Ken would have to stick with the score of 83, placing the team in the 2nd half of the brackets and drawing a tough Top 32 battle with Justin Pawlak, the winner of Rd.1.

In Top32 eliminations, Ken drove hard, with good Hankook tire smoke, but was unable to advance to the next round. JTP and his Mustang eventually went on to also win Rd.2. It was a tough day for the team, but we look forward to improving in Rd.3 Palm Beach, FL early next month. - June 1-2 (Don't forget to follow us during the next race... [Read More]

Short of going FI, what do you think can be done to cure the torque hole around the 4000rpm mark? Will header/exhaust work, or more serious mods be needed to cure?
