If You Don’t Believe That Motorsports Is An International Affair, Then This Ford Falcon Ute Drifting Is For You


If You Don’t Believe That Motorsports Is An International Affair, Then This Ford Falcon Ute Drifting Is For You

Many things cross language borders: food, drink, sports and music, for instance. Look at how many countries play soccer, and how many countries celebrate soccer games with riot-like celebrations. Watch any show that stars Anthony Bourdain and you will see his exploits all over the world, as he eats fine foods and gets smashed out of his head. The flavors are different and regional, but the concept is the same. As far as music…well, South Korea gave the world Psy, Canada gave the world Bieber, and the U.S. gave the world Taylor Swift.

In a better premise, we present to you a truly worldly mix: here we have an Falcon ute, made in Australia by Ford, an American nameplate, drifting…which is a motorsport that has roots in Japan. The fact that it’s drifting shouldn’t be surprising…with no weight over the rear axles and a healthy turbocharged Barra inline-six under the hood, hanging the tail out should be second nature for the ute. It actually reminds us of the Bubba Drift El Camino a little bit…
