Last weekend we went out to the US Drift Circuit event at Palm Beach International Raceway! Check us out talking to some of the drivers, inspecting the drift cars, and going for a ride-along to cap video of some tandems!
We went to US Drift Circuit!
Finish Line Factory now a sponsor of OGOB Racing!
We are proud to announce that we are OGOB Racing’s newest sponsor! OGOB Racing is a competition rock crawling team located in New Jersey and 2016’s champion at the W.E. Rock Grand National Championship in New Mexico! They are a skilled and dedicated team and we are excited to be a part of their efforts for the 2017 season.

FLF is now a KPR sponsor!
We here at FLF are excited to announce that we are now a sponsor of KPR, Kevin Phillips’ drifting team! Kevin Phillips is a well-known and accomplished driver in the drifting scene and has recently become a competitor in the Formula Drift Pro2 series! Kevin Phillips has competed previously in D1GP as well as recent events like LS Fest and the Summer Slide drifting competitions.
Our partnership will allow FLF and KPR great opportunities to test new and existing products on one of the most demanding and harshest environments that exists in automotive racing, in addition to our own testing that we do on track and on the road.
KPR’s drift car, a Nissan 240SX S14 swapped with a Chevy LS V8 engine and a splash of nitrous oxide, will sport our products and logo on the car’s livery. We wish him well and great luck in the coming season!

Labor Day Weekend 2016! Lykan Hypersport @ C&C Palm Beach!
We’re going to be out and about again this weekend! On Sunday we’ll be at Cars & Coffee Palm Beach, we’ll be filming a few of the cars and checking out the ultra-rare and exclusive Lykan Hypersport! This car looks absolutely wild with it’s razor-sharp edges and is powered by a 780HP/708TQ twin-turbo 3.7L Flat-6 developed by RUF and has a top speed of 240 MPH. This car is only one of seven in the entire world and it’s the first car to be designed and produced entirely in the Arab world.
We’re excited to see this exclusive hypercar! Check out a few photos videos we’ve found on Facebook below.

[Track Day] // ERSCC Autocross @ BB&T Center 2016-08-21
Today we’re with ERSCC for their autocross event at the BB&T Center in Sunrise, FL! Had a great time out here and we posted the best time of the day in F Stock with the Ecoboost Mustang!
If you’re wondering, autocross is a form of racing that takes place on a large parking lot with a slalom course set up with cones. It’s fast, fun, safe, and pretty inexpensive compared to other forms of racing. If you want to get into the sport, check out your local autocross club!
[Shop Tours] // Titan Motorsports
After Formula Drift Orlando, #TeamFLF decided to go around to a few different shops in the Orlando area to visit and check out a few of the things they had. Titan Motorsports has an awesome lobby full of the products they have to offer as well as trophies of their achievements and that badass Supra! Check out the tour of the lobby as well as what they’ve got going on in the parking lot.

[Track Day] // TheHPDE @ PBIR 2016-08-12
Went to the PBIR with the Mustang! Performed a check ride with a Miata driver to proceed to advanced and did some driving with our 2016 Mustang Ecoboost. We decided to switch out the tires from the stock Pirelli P-Zero tires to the cheaper Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2 tires, and the differences are immediately noticeable. Grip is significantly reduced and overall performance is reduced (braking, mid-corner throttle, etc). Next time we’ll be switching back to the stock P-Zeros!
[Car Show] // Supercar Saturday @ Lamborghini Broward 2016-08-13
We went to the new(ish) Supercar Saturdays Florida show hosted by Lamborghini Broward. Despite the intense heat it (combined with a supercar rally by another nearby dealership which probably explained this month’s lower than usual turnout) was an awesome show filled with many cars that you normally wouldn’t otherwise see on the road. Around here Lamborghinis and Ferraris are fairly common and it wouldn’t be out of the ordinary to see one out on a quiet Sunday drive, but rarities like the Porsche Carrera GT and the custom RennTech AMG GT-S are what differentiate this show from others.
We compiled a quick clip of a few of our favorite cars at the show and put them up on our YouTube Channel and Instagram. Take a look and enjoy!
