The French drift world is about to experience a major milestone. DRIFT SERIES officially kicks off today with an announcement released on the Shiftech channel, opening a unique opportunity for amateur drivers: a route into the PRO season of the 2026 French Drift Championship.
An ambitious, innovative project firmly focused on talent spotting.
A brand-new gateway to professional drift
Have you always dreamed of lining up at the start of a professional championship? With DRIFT SERIES, Shiftech offers a completely new programme combining virtual selections and real-world selections, designed to identify the most promising names in French drift.
The goal is clear: to offer an official PRO category drive in the 2026 French Drift Championship to an amateur driver, selected on performance, consistency and the ability to compete at the highest level.
Torque Drift School, official school of the physical selections
As part of this project, Torque Drift School is proud to partner with Shiftech as the official driving school for the physical selection phases.
The selected drivers will have the chance to show their potential at the wheel of our Nissan 370Zs, across 4 selection dates on circuit, supervised by our instructors and technical teams.
The DRIFT SERIES selection circuits
The physical selections will take place at circuits that are iconic in French drift:
Circuit de Fontenay-le-Comte
Vaison Piste
Circuit de la Ferté-Gaucher
Transpolis
A semi-final, a final… and a single winner
Once the selections are complete, the best drivers will face off in a semi-final, then a final, to leave just one winner.
This driver will win: 👉 An official seat alongside Shiftech x BrothersCustom 👉 A full season in the PRO category of the 2026 French Drift Championship
A rare, demanding and well-earned opportunity, designed to reveal the next generation of professional drivers.
DRIFT SERIES: revealing the talents of tomorrow
With DRIFT SERIES, Shiftech and Torque Drift School share a common vision: to structure access to the top level, champion raw talent, and offer a credible bridge between amateur and professional drift.
This project marks a new era for the discipline in France, one where performance, teaching and high standards sit at the heart of the selection process.
