Reaffirming its status as the must-attend auto and custom car meet, the organizers of Barbican TURBO have confirmed that Team Orange will be headlining at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre between the 13th and 15th November.
A first for Middle East audiences, Team Orange will be performing their most outrageous drifting stunts and feats over the three day event in their signature orange-striped 450bhp Subarus Impreza GBDs.
Hailing from Fukushima, Japan, Team Orange are one of the world's top drifting teams; they are household names in Asia and the US thanks to their driving displays on the big screen in films such as The Fast & The Furious Tokyo Drift.
Crowned 2006 D1 Grand Prix series champion, Japan's leading car drifting series, Team Orange's lead driver Nobushige Kumakubo will be driving bumper to bumper as he and his teammates show off their skills during twin-drift, or tsuiou, races
Kumakubo will be joined by fellow Team Orange driver Kazuhiro Tanaka at Barbican TURBO.
One of the founding drivers of the D1 Grand Prix series, Tanaka is considered one of the most skilful drifting drivers on the Japanese circuit and was ranked sixth over the 2006 D1 Grand Prix season.
In addition to Team Orange's world class driving displays, visitors will be able to review the latest in styling, performance products, audio/visual displays, screaming engines and smoking tyres!
For the first time in the Middle East enthusiasts will have the chance to see if their own motors can match up to those of the pros, with the 'Top 100' and 'Dyno Shoot Out' competitions.
Debuting at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre between 13th and 15th of November 2008 Barbican Turbo, the first custom car meet in the region, is expected to attract thousands of car enthusiasts from across the Middle East.
