THE COVERS ARE OFF! Baggsy’s Incredible New Toyota GR Corolla Drift Car Is REVEALED!
One of the biggest names in drifting has just unveiled one of the most talked-about builds of the year – and the best news is you’ll be able to experience it live at TRAX this August.
FOS and then… TRAX
Steve ‘Baggsy’ Biagioni has officially pulled the covers off his all-new Toyota GR Corolla drift car, a machine that’s been months in the making and has already captured the attention of the performance car world. Following its dynamic debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the spectacular new build will head to Silverstone as part of the Drift Kings line-up at TRAX, where fans will get to see it doing exactly what it was built for – going sideways.
SHOW and GO
Underneath the aggressive Rocket Bunny Pandem widebody lies one of the wildest drift cars ever created. The factory powertrain has made way for Toyota’s legendary 2JZ engine, built by DY Engine Services and producing an astonishing 1,115bhp and 798Nm of torque thanks to a Garrett G40-1150 turbocharger running on Sunoco E85R race fuel. Backing up that incredible power is a Quaife six-speed sequential gearbox, Winters quick-change differential, ST Suspension XTA Plus 3 coilovers and a host of motorsport-grade components from some of the biggest names in the performance industry.
The finished car is the latest outrageous creation from SB Motorsport, whose previous projects include the Liberty Walk V8 Nissan GT-R, GT-R-powered Navara-R and supercharged Nissan PS13. But according to Baggsy, this has been one of the team’s biggest challenges yet.
Speaking about the project, Baggsy said: “Pulling the covers off this GR Corolla drift car is a moment I’ve been waiting a long time for. What you see today is the result of countless late nights, relentless problem-solving and our team’s obsession with getting every last detail exactly right. The GR Corolla gave us an outstanding platform to start with, and the addition of the legendary 2JZ engine package has transformed it into a fire-breathing machine that’s ready to make some serious noise.”
For TRAX visitors, this is more than just another display car. You’ll get the chance to watch Baggsy put the new Corolla through its paces during the Drift Kings demonstrations, where over 1,100bhp, incredible steering angle and Baggsy’s unmistakable driving style promise one of the highlights of the weekend.Whether you’re a drifting fan, a Toyota enthusiast or simply appreciate world-class engineering, this is one build you won’t want to miss.
TRAX takes place at Silverstone on Sunday 16 August. Book your tickets now and be among the first to see Baggsy’s incredible new Toyota GR Corolla drift car in action as part of the Drift Kings show.
