GRIDLIFE RETURNS TO MICHELIN RACEWAY ROAD ATLANTA
Formula DRIFT and GRIDLIFE are teaming up for an unprecedented event at Round Two of the Formula DRIFT Championship, taking place at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta on Mother’s Day Weekend, May 9-10, 2025. The event is the first of its kind where a track owner and two sanctioning bodies will work together to bring the best possible drift entertainment to the Southeast for what is already a marquee event on the Formula DRIFT calendar.
In what will be an action-packed weekend for fans, Formula DRIFT will bring both its PRO and PROSPEC Championships to the track. This will include practice sessions, competitive tandem Seeding Bracket Qualification, both Top 32 Competition Heats, driver autograph sessions and more. Additionally, GRIDLIFE will add three of its own signature elements, including Time Attack, GLTC Touring Cup and the Rush SR spec series.
And the cherry on the cake for all in attendance will be the GRIDLIFE Full Course Drift event, where drivers slide around the entire 2.54-mile, 12-turn, undulating track. Given that the world’s best drifters will already be in attendance and participating alongside GRIDLIFE entrants, this alone is guaranteed to grab headlines.
