Formula Drift Champion Chelsea DeNofa
Rob Hoover joins us to share his journey with his latest project... putting a Bentley on a Hellcat. He also shares his background working at Monster Energy as well, which allows him to do some cool stuff in the motorsports world. We also discuss the Formula Drift Ridealong he arranged for the Carmmunity crew, which was done in RTR Mustangs piloted by Vaughn Gitten Jr, AdamLZ, and Chelsea DeNofa.
Here's our 2-cents on the whole Chelsea Denofa vs Stuke drama from Formula D New Jersey. Personally – I LOVE the fact that Chelsea went off. And I DON'T think he owes anyone an apology… if he doesn't mean it. Now let me be clear: I don't have a dog in this fight, I wasn't in the driver's seat, and I'm not taking sides. But if you're not up on the situation, it basically went down like this. https://www.tiktok.com/@builttoboost/... Chelsea Denofa had a missing hood pin, causing the front/right corner of his hood to flop around a little bit on his run with Stuke. The Stuke team protested Chelsea's win, saying that the flopping hood was a distraction. Again – not taking sides, but also not sure how you can protest that a flopping hood was a distraction when your whole damn bumper flew off. FD called a redo of the run in protest, where Chelsea won & Stuke hit the wall. Chelsea ended up confronting the Stuke team in the pits, calling them pussies amongst other things. Here, see for yourself… NOW I KNOW THE PROPER THING TO SAY IS… Chelsea Denofa should have taken the high road & addressed the situation behind closed doors. That he drives for one of the top teams in Formula D… and represents top-tier companies like Ford, RTR, Pennzoil, Nitto, Monster, etc. Monday morning quarterbacks will add – Denofa's behavior did not represent his sponsors or the sport favorably. I SAY… THE HELL IT DIDN'T! That was the realest, most authentic thing I've seen in motorsports in quite some time. I'm not saying that Formula D should be WWE wrestling (or whatever the hell it's called where they throw the chairs). But yeah – I don't want the Candy Land version of motorsports either. This is a high-adrenaline, fast, intense sport… with litter margin for error. Don't censor that. MOTORSPORTS IN GENERAL HAS BEEN LOSING ENERGY OVER THE DECADES. WHY? Partly because: Drivers have all become corporate faces. Race car drivers used to pop-off at the mouth on occasion. They were competitive, arrogant, passionate, & hard to wrangle… with just enough charm to pull it off. But then corporations got involved and wanted to brand them. And in doing so, race car drivers have become soft-d!ck spokespeople. Think of old NASCAR versus modern NASCAR. Sure – there's a time to keep your cool. And for Chelsea Denofa, this wasn't one of those times. I'm fine with that lol. Let 'em settle it at the next round.
And now for something completely different This week, Jacob walks you through the entire FD Pro roster giving you updates and hot takes. You will also find out why he won't take that damn beanie (toque) off. Below is a list of all of the drivers so you can make sure to give them a follow.

Our latest guest is Josh Robinson, a multi-disciplined race car driver from Australia. His interest in cars started before he could walk and the same year he attained a car licence he started competing in local grass roots autocross / autokhana competition. In 2008 he progressed to tarmac rallying where he won Champion Rookie in the Dutton Rally National Series and backed it up the following year with a 2nd place finish in the Australian Tarmac Championship. Between Rallying events Josh discovered Time Attack as a great way to keep his seat time and skills up.However in December 2012 Josh was invited to try drifting in Japan and found that it was the most fun he had ever had in a car. It was there he was fortunate enough to meet Nobushige Kumakubo-san, be taken for passenger laps and taught to drift by Andy Gray and Naoto Suenaga-san (Team Orange), before being extended an invitation to be a team guest at the Odaiba D1GP season finale. In 2013 Josh competed in the Japanese G1GP drift series while building the HSV Maloo with Horsepower Factory he started campaigning in Australia in 2014. He completed his first season with a best finish of 2nd in Drift Challenge Australia, losing only to American Formula Drift driver Chelsea DeNofa.In 2016 Josh had a 2nd place in the Japanese G1GP championship. With his results in the Japanese championship he was able to secure a Formula Drift license, making him the first Australian driver to be granted one. Josh has then competed for the past three years in Formula Drift Prospec he will take a break for the 2021 season to focus on the Texas Drift Academy.
