When the green flag drops on the 2013 snowmobile racing season, Drift Racing will be on the gas and at the front thanks to a growing team of racers and crew. From its high-tech race wear to its ultra-warm jackets and pants, Drift gear will help its athletes reach the top in snocross, oval and cross-country with everything from grassroots Junior class riders to multi-World Champions.

“Racing and high-performance riding is built into the DNA of Drift Racing,” said Tom Schaefer, Drift Gear supervisor. “Our gear is inspired by the passion to win shared by all of our racing partners and fans.”
