Meet the NASCAR driver with a street-legal C6 Corvette drift car
Watch pro stock car racer Jesse Iwuji teach Top Gear’s tuning correspondent Rob Dahm to drift
What car does a professional NASCAR driver and former Lieutenant Commander in the United States Navy take to the shops? Well, for Jesse Iwuji it could genuinely be his heavily modified 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 drift car.
Because yes, Iwuji’s bonkers supercharged 7.0-litre drift car can still be driven to the track. So, in the latest episode of American Tuned, he took Top Gear’s tuning correspondent Rob Dahm to Orange Show Speedway in San Bernardino for a properly wholesome drifting lesson.
Have a watch of the video above and let us know where Iwuji’s creation ranks among the coolest drift cars around.
