Since I write about Twitter last year, Im please to say that many more automotive people are jumping on board. And to my surprise, there are quite a few Formula D drivers with accounts. There’s a few that aren’t utilizing the service (looking at your Dmac) but perhaps that’ll change. Regardless, Ive put together a small list of Formula D drivers with Twitter accounts. Be sure to follow them during this weekend’s Round 3 at Wallspeedway in Jersey.

Formula Drift
These are the guys that make it happen.

Jarod DeAnda aka “JRod”
The voice of Formula D. If you have ever attended a FD event, then you’ve heard this guy on the mic.

Joon Maeng
Driver of the infamous green S13.5 and by far one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. And one hell of a driver. He’s coming off a 4th place finish at FD Round 2: Atlanta. You can check out his website as well: http://www.joonmaeng.com/. He updates several times a week.

Tommy suell
Pilots the Allegiant AE86. Those that already know his profession will see the humor; or lack there of. Tommy has been quite the blogger as well. http://tommysuell.com/

Dai Yoshihara
Proud new owner of the Discount Tire IS350

Darren McNamara
Originally for Ireland, Dmac is campaigning the Saturn Sky in FD this year. To my chagrin, he’s slacking on his Twitter responsibilities and has yet to post an update.

Tony Brakohiapa
Driver of the Team X Ford Mustang

Vaughn Gittin Jr.
I heard a rumor he drives a Mustang too.

Matt Waldin
Somewhat of a new face to Formula D, but certainly not the scene. Matt has a licenses with in every North American drift series. He also owns a performance shop Import Intelligence in West Chester, PA.

Kyle Mohan
Driver of the Kyle Mohan Racing 2009 Mazda RX-8

Samuel Hubinette
Meh.
