As we hurtle ever closer to the Opening Round of the 2025 Formula DRIFT PRO Championship on April 4-5 on the Streets of Long Beach, we have time to sneak in a couple of announcements. The series is delighted to welcome the return of both Meguiar’s and ENEOS Oil as Associate Sponsors.
As one of the world’s leading car care brands, Meguiar’s needs no introduction. They’re also FD OGs, having sponsored the series in the early days and now returning to enjoy the tremendous growth that’s taken place over the past 22 years.
As part of its sponsorship program, Meguiar’s videos will be aired on the free-to-view event livestream during competition weekends. Spectators will also see the instantly recognizable logo around the track, while visitors to both Southern California Formula DRIFT rounds can visit the Meguiar’s booth to learn more about their products and speak to representatives about specific cleaning solutions.
Anybody wishing to know more about the industry-leading Meguiar’s car care products or to view their informative car care video series should visit the website at meguiars.com.
The ENEOS Motor Oil logo will be very familiar to anybody who has visited Japan. Seemingly with a gas station on every street corner, ENEOS is Japan’s largest oil company and supplier to the vast majority of Japanese and Asian car companies. In fact, ENEOS engineers can be found in the R&D departments at many of the major manufacturers, blending oils specifically for many of your favorite performance cars. Known as the Original JDM Motor Oil, ENEOS is probably what your car was designed for if it was engineered in Japan. And the company’s unrivalled experience means your car will benefit from its engine and transmission oils, wherever it was built.
As a special bonus to Formula DRIFT fans, ENEOS is offering a 20% discount on its oil products every time an ENEOS-sponsored driver stands on the podium this year. And considering they support both Fredric Aasbo and Odi Bakchis, who finished second and third, respectively, in 2024, there should be no shortage of opportunities. Scoring seven podiums last year, Team ENEOS is hoping to increase that number in 2025.
