Adam LZ has been turning heads in the Formula Drift series, with recent podium finishes that have solidified his place among the sport’s elite. With 3rd place victories at Round 4: The Gauntlet in Englishtown and Round 6: Throwdown in Seattle, Adam has climbed to 5th in the overall standings. While his driving talent is the foundation of his success, the switch to SLRspeed’s angle kit on his E36 BMW Pro drift car for Round 4 has been a crucial piece of the puzzle, enhancing his performance and giving him an edge on the track.
SLRspeed: The Perfect Complement to a Skilled Driver
Adam LZ’s rise in Formula Drift is a testament to his extraordinary driving skills and relentless pursuit of excellence. However, success in this demanding sport requires more than just raw talent—it requires a meticulously tuned car that can handle the intense pressures of competitive drifting. When Adam transitioned from a competitor’s angle kit to the SLR Ultra Angle it, it was a strategic move to further refine his car’s performance and match his aggressive driving style.
The SLRspeed angle kit didn’t single-handedly propel Adam to the podium, but it provided the precision and control needed to maximize his potential. The kit’s superior engineering, which maintains optimal steering geometry at extreme angles, has allowed Adam to push his car to its limits with confidence. This synergy between Adam’s driving ability and the performance enhancements provided by SLR's kit is a killer combo for drifting success.
SLRspeed Angle Kits: Proven Performance at Every Level
SLRspeed angle kits are designed to offer more than just an increased steering angle—they deliver the confidence and control needed to execute high-risk maneuvers with precision. This has made SLR the choice of top drivers across various levels of competition, including Chelsea Denofa and Andy Hateley.
Chelsea Denofa, a name synonymous with success in Formula Drift, relied exclusively on SLRspeed angle kits during his years in the series with his BMW E46. Chelsea’s impressive performances and consistent results were a testament to both his driving prowess and the capabilities of SLRspeed’s engineering. His use of our angle kits allowed him to navigate the demanding courses with the control and precision necessary to compete at the highest level.
In addition to Chelsea’s legacy, Andy Hateley has also demonstrated the power of SLRspeed angle kits. Andy dominated the ProSpec series last year, finishing second in points, and has now transitioned to his first year in Pro. With SLRspeed’s support, Andy is getting his feet wet in the Pro ranks, and we have no doubt that he will continue to excel in the years to come. His success in ProSpec and his promising start in Pro are further evidence of the competitive edge that SLRspeed angle kits can provide.
A Legacy of Success and Innovation
Adam LZ’s recent achievements are a continuation of the legacy of great drivers who have chosen SLRspeed to enhance their performance. Just as Chelsea Denofa’s use of our angle kits helped him achieve success in Formula Drift, and Andy Hateley’s ProSpec domination showcased the capabilities of our products, Adam’s recent switch to SLR has been a key part of his strategy to reach the podium. However, it’s important to recognize that this success is the result of a combination of Adam’s driving skill, strategic setup decisions, and the right equipment.
At SLR, we’re proud to provide the tools that help top drivers like Adam, Chelsea, and Andy reach their full potential. Our angle kits are designed with the needs of competitive drifters in mind, offering the adjustability and reliability required to perform at the highest levels.
Looking Ahead: A Bright Future for SLRspeed Drivers
As the Formula Drift season progresses, Adam LZ is well-positioned to continue climbing the ranks. With his exceptional driving, supported by the precision of the SLRspeed angle kit, the future looks promising for this talented driver. We’re also excited to see how Andy Hateley will continue to develop in his first year in Pro, following his success in ProSpec.
SLR has always believed in empowering drivers with the best possible equipment, and the success of drivers like Adam LZ, Chelsea Denofa, and Andy Hateley is a perfect example of how the right tools, combined with unparalleled skill, can lead to extraordinary results. Whether it’s Chelsea’s legacy with the BMW E46, Andy’s rise through ProSpec and into Pro, or Adam’s current success with the E36, SLR angle kits continue to be a critical component in the success stories of top drifters. Here’s to more podium finishes and continued excellence in the thrilling world of Formula Drift!
