The Irish drifting sensation Eric O’Sullivan will take home Rookie of the Year tonight at the Formula Drift banquet. He finished the season with 332.25 points ranking him in 18th place. His closest competition was Michael Essa who had 263.50 points down in 24th place. Michael Essa did not drive in Round 3 at Wall Speedway while Eric O’Sullivan performed in all 7 rounds noting a reason for the large gap in points. Congrats to Rockstar Energy Drink, Hankook Tires, Eric O’Sullivan, and team who put together a great package for the driver allowing him to finish with a Rookie of the Year spot.
Matt Powers should have got the award.
Essa!!!
People forgot last year was his first year EVER drifting.
Gratz, I guess. Shame he’s a homophobic prick though.
wow…why the hate on eric o sullivan?? give some kind of credit. shit. essa and powers both had a chance. except matt didnt make ever round, which put him out of the running for rookie of the year. and essa missed jersey, which hurt him as well

Eric is a pro drift champion
he is def not a rookie to the sport
Ichiro was batting champion in Japan. Came over to the states and won the Rookie of the Year in MLB.
Ichiro didn’t deserve it either….lol
