Nathan Weissel, winner of the 2007 NSW Drift Series and 8th overall in the National Drift Series, has joined forces with Federal Tyres as his major sponsor to contend the 2008 series.
After competing using Federal Tyres in his early days of drifting, why has Nathan switched back to Federal Tyres? “I tried other brands but the Federal tyres are still my favourite,” said Weissel, “they give me the best level of grip and control and do not suffer with heat like other brands.” Nathan will use Federal 595 Ultra High Performance tyres on his Nissan Skyline R32, with 235 / 40 ZR18 on the front and 265 / 35 ZR18 on the rear. “Federal Tyres engineered the 595 Competition Series tyre to handle the abuse of drifting,” explained Brett Quodling from National Tyre Wholesalers. “The 595 provides responsive performance at high speeds and exceptional adhesion and control when needed while withstanding excess heat from wheel spin.” Nathan will compete using his new Federal Tyres at the first round of the 2008 Drift Australia Series at Symmons Plains Raceway in Tasmania this weekend. Special thanks go also to ACL Race Bearings, Wolf ECU's, Motul Oils, Stamford Wheels, GCG Turbo's and Sign Design for their support.

Pity you can't buy those tyres anywhere, only the lower load rated and speed rated tyres at local shops, with what the Federal website indicates is a different tread wear as well. (Well in 17's anyway)
