There will be lots of highlights at the upcoming Yokohama World Time Attack Challenge and one of them is the Full Send Demo Crew.

An eight car field full of wide variety from McLarens to Commodores will provide plenty of entertainment for the big crowd that will be coming to Sydney Motorsport Park this weekend.

The experienced Arios Suzuki will be unleashing a drift-spec McLaren MC12 GT3.

Suzuki is a familiar face from Japan of bringing unexpected cars to the drifting world having brought a Ferrari 360 in 2013.

He is the only international looking to take the fight to the locals.

Mitch Pullen is one of four Queenslanders in the field and will be sliding around in a Supercharged Nissan S13.

The former speedway racer will be driving a flame-spitting 800hp monster with a 8 into 1 exhaust.

Representing South Australia is Jay Duca, who is fresh from the Summernats.

Duca will be driving a 4-rotor Holden VL Commodore that is a noted competition drift car.

Also driving a bright yellow Commodore is Victorian Catherine Hewitson.

Hewitson will be driving a NASCAR powered Holden VK Commodore that is likely to be a fan favourite from a much-loved era.

Queensland’s Joel Dimmack will bring something different with a Datsun 240Z VR38TT.

His Datsun features a Pace Innovations-built chassis and a potent VR38 engine, being a nice fusion of old and new.

Many are excited to see what the Nissan Skyline GTR from Hardtuned.

Whilst a driver is yet to be confirmed, there has been much anticipation about the build of the twin-turbo Viper V10 R35.

 

Luke Fink will stand out driving a Nissan Patrol. However, it is no regular Patrol with it being completely modified to go drifting.

The vehicle itself is based on a 370Z chassis and will be one not to miss simply due to its crazy build.

The only local in the field is NSW’s Ben Walker in a Toyota AE86.

Walker will be steering a beautifully presented K24-powered AE86 that will be a big hit amongst the home crowd.

The Full Send Demo Crew will be on track five times across the event.
