2022 Tuning 365 Tour Award Winners at Formula DRIFT Atlanta

PASMAG’s Tuning 365 returned to Formula DRIFT Atlanta at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta on May 7th for the second straight year, and over 175 cars competed for their chance to be featured in PASMAG! The first award of the day was the Driver’s Choice, made by Jhonnattan Castro who selected Christopher Yi's 2019 Honda Civic Type-R.

The show also featured another round of the 10th Annual PASMAG Tuner Battlegrounds Championship presented by LiquiMoly. In this #TBGLIVE event, Michael Hart with his 2004 Mazda Miata received the highest vote total, and will now receive a spot in the Top 64 bracket for the annual championship.

Editor’s Choice awards were also presented to Jimmy Taylor's 1972 Datsun 510, Diego Flores' 1992 Honda Civic Hatchback and Christopher Simpson's 2008 Nissan 350z. The Best Team award went to Jade Motorsports. We can’t wait to see all these great builds in the pages of PASMAG and on the Tuning 365 TV Show.

A first-ever at PASMAG’s Tuning 365 Show - RAYS Wheels had their East Coast RAYS Tribute car meet presented by Mackin Industries at Formula DRIFT: Atlanta, and showcased a wide range of beautiful builds exclusively on RAYS wheels. Hosted by Big Mike, who kept the vibe and excitement at 100, a lot of Japan exclusive - not sold in North America - RAYS swag was raffled throughout the day - a tool bag, gym bag, sunglasses, Volk Racing socks, hats and so much more! And with the new 2022 RAYS wheel line-up on display - from Volk Racing to gramLIGHTS, Versus, A-LAP, Team Daytona and Homura - it didn’t take much for some attendees to place their order for a super new and fresh set of wheels.

Registration for the next PASMAG’s Tuning 365 Show is now open at https://tuning365.events and will take place at Formula DRIFT: Englishtown June 11th at Old Bridge Township Raceway Park in New Jersey.
