COLE MORGAN, REIGNING CHAMPION OF THE F2000 SERIES PRESENTED BY HANKOOK TIRE, TESTS WITH ROBBY UNSER RACING’S DRIFT TEAM
O
rlando,
FL - Dec 10 – The recently crowned 2007 F2000 Pro Series
Champion, Cole Morgan, showed his diverse driving skills by testing
with the Robby Unser Racing drift team. This was Morgan’s first
attempt at drifting, and he was able to use his road racing skills to
accelerate his learning curve. Morgan was one of the first students
to attend Unser’s new Drive & Drift School.
“Cole was a great student and fast learner,” commented drift team owner Robby Unser. “We both come from an open wheel racing background and our methods of learning this sport are just the same. This racing is very difficult and like any other form of racing, it is important to get track time. Cole attended our drift school and was able to accelerate quickly through our class structure. We thought taking him to a Nopi Pro test would let him experience the track and see what the judges are looking for. We couldn’t be happier with his progress and we look forward to getting him back to the track.”
“Wow that was fun,” said the excited Morgan. “This is very different than what I’m used to in an open wheel car but closer to my test in a Grand Am car. It looks easy on TV like you just pitch the car and hit the gas, but I can tell you it’s not. I’ve wanted to try drifting for some time and jumped at the chance to get behind the wheel. Robby’s help was great and I have to thank Hankook Tires for letting us test their tires. I ran on their road race tire in F2000 all this year and they were great. These tires had great grip and put up a lot of smoke. It was a great experience and I hope to get more track time with Robby soon.”
Unser recently launched a new drift school and announced his new drift team ownership of Robby Unser Racing, formerly Enjuku Racing. During the winter months, Unser will prepare a second 350Z and develop the Drive & Drift School in Orlando, FL. Unser plans to run a two car team using the 350Z platform for the 2008 drift season.
