Off Season testing was a success

Team Achilles have been in a mad rush in the off season to get the Achilles Radial VE SS Drift Ute to a new level of Competitiveness.

   
So what do you do to test a Top Level Drift Car? Enter a competition voted one of the best Driver & spectator track's in Qld of course. 


This was supposed to be a small local competition to get the car dialed in & make adjustments along the way......That was until a handful of Australia's best drivers decided to turn up & pushed Nick & the Ute to the top level of drifting here in Australia.


Top 8 battle against Rob Whyte


Top 4 battle against Levi Clarke


Battle for 1st & 2nd with Mick Rosenblatt


Re-Run battle for 1st & 2nd


Nick placed 2nd for the day after a small issue in the re-run against Mick.

All in all a great test day for Team Achilles & now the process to fit the new wide body to the Ute has begun & the new race livery to be fitted before our next event.

We cant thank our sponsors enough for getting the Achilles radial VE SS Drift Ute to where it is today.
Fulcrum Suspensions have done all the hard yards with our suspension & alignment improvements for the new season.
Hi-Torque Performance & Aftermarket Industries for the new E85 fuel system upgrade & tune.
XForce Performance for the new 2" full length tuned headers that compliment our new power increases.
NPC for the best clutch in drift.
Hi-Tec Oils for keeping the Ute running on song.
CSR Performance & Cosmis Racing wheels for the great looking wheels.
Achilles Radial for the the best tyre any driver could ask for in drift.
