- Formula Drift Round 2: Advance Auto Parts - Road to the Championship
In this round Recap - MadMike and team head back to Road Atlanta for the 2nd year in his Red Bull, Nitto Tire, Mazda MX5 - RADBUL where the Pro Championship point standings were shaken up, with with the Top 3 points leaders knocked out of competition in the top 32.
Experience proved to be a factor with the Top 3 finishers which included three past champions, who have competed at every Formula Drift event at Road Atlanta since the beginning 13 years ago.
This round last season was the first ever event for the MX5 and Mikes 2nd time at the venue where he finished Atlanta in a respectable 13th. This year the team set out to better that result. Confident heading into qualifying Mike laid down two top runs qualifying him for the top 32 main competition and placing him in the 11th spot of the battle tree format.
Top32 vs Alex Heilbrunn
win - MadMike
Mike paired off against his Nitto Tire Team mate - Alex Heilbrunn. According to the track data Alex was very fast. The crew set the car up for as much grip as possible in order to keep pace with Alex through out the course. Mike laid down an amazing lead and chase run to take the win.
Top 16 vs Daijiro Yoshihara
win - Daijiro Yoshihara
Meeting Dai is always a good battle - he drives with an aggressive and clean style and you can be sure he won't play any tactical games on track. With that in mind heading into the battle Mike was prepared to go all in. In the first battles the runs were so close the judges couldn't make a decision and the battle went One More Time. In the re-run Mike again laid down aggressive runs but the judges called it to Dai.
Mike finished Formula Drift Round 2 event in 9th putting him into 13th overall in the Formula Drift Championship.
The next event for the team is Formula Drift Ebisu in Japan.
Special thanks to: Red Bull, Nitto Tire, Mazda, rotiform, Haltech, Turbo by Garrett, TAKATA, ilabb, KW Suspensions, Next Level Racing, Deatschwerks and to the crew Toni, Warren, JT, Mickey, Aaron & Tommy

thejoeyg not mad mike but real movies.... as in make heaps of money lol
The in car noise is spine tingling!!! I love this RADBUL!
The FD judges are a joke... Well done Mike and congrats for your win in Japan!
But what do you mean? Formula Drift judges are known for their quality judging abilities :p
Mitch Conner sometimes they dont judge correctly from what they have seen like all judges somwtimes not the way uou wanted
Hey guys I have looked up to mad mike for a while now and it made my day when I was at home then I go for a ride in my new Porsche 911 and pulled up right beside him the light was green but I was to busy talking to him I even hoped out of my car on the high way and got a picture and autograph and thanks mad mike for making my day last week I'm so thank full but it was quite funny how in the end I got a ticket by the cops for leaving my car in the middle of the road I hope I will See you again in the future.
God that's beautifully produced, great work guys.
And he just won in Japan as well!
+vulcan gamer yeah in the rx7
I love Mad Mike's mx5
Mad Mike please do more formula drift Japan or formula drift with the mx5
Freaking love you Mad Mike!!! By far the best in the American FD series!! Mike is literally the only reason I watch... Awesome job in Japan, watched the whole stream from start to finish and boy was it awesome YOU KILLED IT!
Getting sick of the judges bias in America, I get hyped for the event, and then always get disappointed with the damn judges and commentary, gets me angry every time and kills the whole event.
Listening to the Japan stream highlighted that, everyone there was loving it... come to America and the commentary and judges just push him to the side.
Congrats on the win in Japan and Good Luck for the rest of the FD season I hope to see you in FDNJ
You are awesome dude love your drifting keep up the good work
2:56-3:22 and 7:23-8:02... this car sounds phenomenal!!! Mike, you and your team created a masterpiece. looking forward to FD 2017
Luke F I have a felling he is not going to be in the fd in 2017 I think he is going back to d1nz hopefully not I went to the one in Orlando and he did great
Bryan3000GG Gaming it would be a shame if he didn't compete in FD this year. I really like him, he seems like such a chill, down to earth guy... and his car is just awesome
OMG those onboard clips are EPIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well done mike!!!! ... still the best drifter and the most entertaining driver to watch
Love the video! Great job :)
That BMW sounds soooooo sick. Ohh, baby!
Love those video series. :) Congratulations for your first place at FD Japan. :D Please upload the RAW GoPro footage from your helmet...
The only MX5 that I approve xD
I’m so obsessed with his helmet
I wish one day I could drift my r33 20e auto like u uncle Mike I luv da rfb
I can’t believe how hard you can push that engine and it just keeps running.
Mike, you got me into Miatas and wanting to drift a rotary NB
Man i wish i could make my rx8 sound as sick as your miata.
Rotary for life
Guys please help mazda build a fuel efficient reliable rotary so they can produce the RX-9
The Rx-Vision is coming
2017
It's not :( The 3MPS BM (mazdaspeed3) is also on hold until the next facelift of the current generation (BM).
Not possible. The point of a rotary is big power from a tiny engine
+Dr. DOHC Addict Well, if they
1 pair it with as hybrid system.
2 tune it to run on hydrogen cells
3 tweak the design and add components
It is possible but at what cost? We will see.
Looks awesome :) met the videographer last year cool guy!! Awesome job guys

I wonder if he will ever do an r.e.p.u drift ute. It would be slick as f@#k if he did a twin turbo 4 rotor or some other sweet setup at some point .

ยากให้มาที่Thailand
Mad mike's mind when he's the one chasing: I'm on your A$$ bthc, you ain't going anywhere
MadMike Your RadBull MX5 is a Total Beast!!! It sounds like BomBs Dropping on Baghdad. lol
Unlucky mike. All runs looked tight, tough at the top i guess.
D1nz started in 2003? but FD started in 2004 does that mean FD is the 3rd longest running drift series and D1NZ is the 2nd
Good
anyone know what the opening song is ?
At the start someone doesn't have the new Insta update
he got the luck with the rotary
Nice runs! And remember to get Overloaded doritos so you get maximum out of your rotary!
The rx7 suited you soo much more. You're scores are lower, the mx5 is just too small
3:10 PUURH
mad mike would like you to visit the RDS Siberia in Russia?
is it me or does his car seem a lot quieter than it was last season? or maybe i just want it louder!!!
the turbos quieten things a bit
RX last session MX this session. different cars aye..
+jaceNZ75 Still had that MX5 last season. Was just the NC not the ND
It's the same car, they just changed the rear and the front end because of te agressive look they wanted :)
yolo mazda
were did u get your helmet
7/11
I know it's a nice helmet, I think they should have those helmets in rally too, not those ugly ones.
anyone know what those wheels are?
They were custom made, beadlock and all
It feels like the car as almost to much grip he build speed so fast at the exit he got to slow down and loses its momentum while going against. When first tho he can really shine and to me it is better driving.
I got wings
Try to do a 360º please!!!!
Ken Block should do FD in a 5.0
what's with the last snippet ??? Guy trying to troll ??? He was right saying over sized doritos... ain't no pistons in a rotary ... bro
555.. Halo V.2.0
I never seen an Audi r8 drift this is how many people will drift the Audi r8
