GT Radial Driver Dylan Hughes Takes 2nd Place in Formula DRIFT Seattle

SEATTLE, WA (Aug. 14, 2023) – Six Formula DRIFT races this season and nine podium finishes for GT Radial with driver Dylan Hughes capturing 2nd place in Seattle on Aug. 12.

The largest crowd in the Seattle event’s history turned out to watch the Formula DRIFT PRO Championship Round 6 and witnessed GT Radial drivers finish in the top 3 in the qualifying round on Aug. 11. Matt Field was on top in his Borla Performance / GT Radial Corvette. GT Radial driver Aurimas “Odi” Bakchis was also looking strong in 2nd place qualifying and his teammate Simen Olsen rounded out the top 3 in qualifying.

Field, Bakchis and Olsen all put forth very aggressive efforts in the final round on Aug. 12 but were unfortunately eliminated. Hughes came through, however, with a 2nd place finish and GT Radial continued its string of podium finishes.

With two rounds to go, the Driving Standings and Tire Cup for the 2023 Formula DRIFT season are very much up for grabs with GT Radial in good position in both.

“It’s been extremely competitive this year, and we are very proud of how our teams and the GT Radial Champiro SX2 RS tire have performed throughout the campaign,” said GT Radial Motosports Manager Mike Meeiem. “After nine consecutive podium finishes, we are looking to finish strong in the final two rounds.”

Section Width Section Width How to find your width? This three-digit number represents the width of the tire in millimeters (mm), measured from sidewall to sidewall. Since this measure is affected by the width of the rim, the measurement is done when the tire is on its intended rim size. Aspect Ratio Aspect Ratio How to find your aspect ratio? The aspect ratio is the relationship of a tire's sidewall height to its section width, expressed as a percentage. In this example, the tire sidewall height is approximately 55% of the tire width. The higher the number, the taller the sidewall; the lower the number, the shorter the sidewall. Rim Diameter Rim Diameter How to find your Rim Diameter? The diameter of the rim in inches.
