As you many of you know Tegiwa are the European distributor for Yellow Speed Racing in the form of YSR Europe. We’ve been involved with the drift community here in the UK for quite some time, sponsoring the British Drift Championship from as early as 2015. So, when the chance to work alongside Paul Cunnington A.K.A Pauly C for the 2023 Drift Pro Championship season, we knew we had to take it!
Paul currently drives a custom-built Nissan Silvia S15, which is powered by a Toyota 2JZ engine, producing an impressive 840 horsepower. This season we’ve hooked him up with a set of our brand new Advanced Pro Plus Racing 2-way Drift Spec coilovers to help take his suspension game to the next level. The front coilovers on this system are inverted and feature a remote reservoir with an 18″ hose so that the canister can be mounted in the engine bay. This allows for extra oil capacity to help dissipate heat more effectively and the coilovers can perform more consistently when pushing the car to the limits. The rear remote reservoir includes a hard pipe for extra reliability when driving on the limit. They also feature a dry break connector too, so the shock can quickly be taken off and adjusted without removing the whole system!
Paul has been competing since 2017 and after taking victory in a round of Drift Cup back in 2018, Paul has established himself as one of the top drivers in the sport. Since then, he’s earned multiple podium finishes and achieved as high as 3rd in the Drift Pro Championship in 2021. With our new partnership we aim to showcase the performance of Yellow Speed Racing suspension products in real-world conditions. Paul’s feedback and expertise will help us in further improving our products and expanding our reach within the drifting community.
With Paul’s drift skills and our high performance suspension systems, we’ve got our sights firmly locked on the top spots for the upcoming Drift Pro season. You can catch Paul in action at the opening round of the Drift Pro Championship this weekend at the season opener at Cadwell Park!
