At the GD Life event, Larry Chen stumbled upon a truly bizarre sight - an Audi A5 turned into a drift monster by the folks at TSH Auto from Toronto. This machine is no ordinary car; it packs a punch with a VR6 engine churning out a hefty 750 horsepower, with potential for even more after tweaking. The team didn't hold back on the modifications, decking out the car with a full competition setup, including a rear radiator, Kevlar body, and an intercooler. This isn't just any run-of-the-mill build; it's the team's inaugural foray into creating a drift car, transitioning from a standard fiberglass body to a lightweight carbon fiber construction.
The Audi A5's body panels are a labor of love, all custom-made to fit the wider RS5 body shape the team opted for. Weighing in at around 3300 lbs, this beast sports a sleek Samsonas dog box transmission, adding to its performance credentials. The team's mission with this project? To inject a fresh dose of innovation into the world of drifting with their unconventional creation. From the ground up, this car is a testament to the team's dedication to pushing boundaries and standing out in a sea of traditional drift builds.
The TSH Auto crew spared no detail in crafting this unique Audi A5 drift car, from the custom body panels to the powerful VR6 engine under the hood. With aspirations of competing in Formula Drift, this machine is a blend of power, precision, and pure craftsmanship. The team's decision to go all-in on this build, transforming it into a competition-ready powerhouse, showcases their commitment to excellence in the world of drifting. Larry Chen's encounter with this extraordinary creation serves as a reminder that true innovation knows no bounds, especially in the realm of custom car builds.
