Competitors from around the country battled it out at Oran Park Raceway south of Sydney for two elusive spots at the World Championships to be held in the USA in November.

The event featured two full days of drifting action, which also included the Toyo Tyres Super Drift Series, Expression Sessions, Max Entry Speed runs and trick motorbike action.

Beau Yates (Toyota TRD AE86 Sprinter) won the final round with second place going to Adelaide’s Leighton “The Crab Man” Fine (Team CTS Nissan 180SX) who gained enough points to become the 2008 champion.

Third place went to Luke Fink (Holford Motors Nissan Silvia) with a strong performance all weekend.
