The atmosphere was charged with excitement as a record number of fans from all over the world gathered to witness high-octane drag races in stunning dragsters, cars, motorbikes, and even buses.
Performance Powerhouse
Turbo Total, one of Garrett’s Performance Distributors, made a bold impression at NitrOlympX 2024. Their paddock was a hub of activity, drawing in a constant stream of visitors eager to explore performance products. On display were Garrett’s performance turbos, wastegates, blow-off valves, intercoolers and high-performance accessories, captivating both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
Adding to the excitement, Rick Van Goethem unveiled his new drifting car— a stunning Nissan Skyline V35 with a 2JZGTE non VVTI forged engine that’s being boosted by a G-Series G35-900 Garrett Turbocharger. The outcome? A solid 750 horsepower and 915 Nm of torque.
They also engaged the audience with a social media contest, offering exclusive Garrett merchandise, which generated significant buzz online, but even more offline. The influence extended beyond the paddock with one of the drag lanes proudly branded Turbo Total & Garrett, a proud moment that has been written in history.
