2015 GReddy Year in Review

Time to Catch up with GReddy...

2016 is gearing up to be another great year for GReddy, with more new products, projects and fun; let's take a quick look back at some of the accomplishments we achieved in 2015...

Most recently was the secret Toyo Tires Japan Drift Attack project on the infamous Hakone Turn Pike, during the latest Motor Head Magazine Hakone Hill Climb II. The video session brought together our very own Boost Briagde / GReddy Team of Ken Gushi and Masato Kawabata in the TRUST Racing / Toyo Tires 550hp Toyota 86 and 1000+hp Nissan GT-R

 At the SEMA Show, GReddy Special Projects Division's 2015 project build was for the Fast and the Furious series star, Sung Kang (Han).  This special 1973 Datsun 240Z build, named the "Fugu Z," was documented online in Z Dream a 5 episode series, by the Speed motors on Fox and the eGarage team.

Built in just over 2 months, this special build was finished just in time to reveal before the SEMA Show at the GReddy HQ.  It then went on to be featured in the main lobby of SEMA Show and won "Best in Show" in the Gran Turismo Awards (and our 4th Best Asian Import Award)

The GReddy Racing Japanese and USA Teams were equally as successful in 2015 with a D1 Grand Prix Series Championship and a 2nd Overall in the, super competitive, Formula Drift Pro Championships...

 

In just his 2nd year in the Team TOYO TIRES Drift - TRUST Racing 35RX Dspec GT-R, Masato Kawabata captures his 3rd D1Grand Prix Series Championship, with 2x wins (4x podioums) & 1x Top Qualifier in the 5 round, 2015 season.  (plus 3x 2015 Exhibition Event Wins)

 

2015 also became a break-out season for Ken Gushi and the GReddy Performance - Scion Racing FR-S.   In Ken's 4th season with the GReddy Team, Ken produced an impressive 4x podiums, 2x Top Qualifiers as well as record for OMTs in one event in the 7round series.  The result for the 2015 Formula Drift Pro Championship was 2nd overall with no signs of slowing down for 2016... Ken's 2nd place finish at the season finale in Irwindale Speedway with an injured car showed his confidence and great driving skill.
