Does anyone even remember that Red Bull is an energy drink company and not a motorsports constructor? Do you even connect the motorsports with the drink? They've taken a gimmick and turned it into one of the coolest brands for car guys in the world.
As proof of this theory we have a Red Bull sponsored drift event....on the streets of Atlanta.
I assume it went like this: "Hi, Georgia? Yeah, It's Red Bull. We're renting Atlanta. The helicopter full of cash will be there soon. Yeah, the energy drink people. We've got racecars-- a Hyundai Genesis and a Pontiac Solstice. Drift cars. Yeah, we're gonna lay a ton of rubber all over your bricks. Great! See ya soon!"
So here's Rhys Millen and Ryan Tuerck doing exactly what you'd do if you could rent a city.

It's like real life Project Gotham Racing. Sweet.

Does that Solstice pack an LS engine? One of those cars sounded mean, and I don't think it was the Hyundai.
