Driver Project: Corey Hosford
Behind the KSport 350Z

Drivers, they are more than the pilot of a four wheeled rocket-ship. One of our favorite drivers is Corey Hosford of KSport. Corey standing a shadowing 6’3” tall is “The Boss” as his teammates like to call him. He entered the world of pro-amateur drifting for the first time earlier last year and shocked the drift community as he quickly made his way to the podium. He earned three podium finishes out of only 5 events.
Residing in Gilbert, AZ he is quite the local hero and friend to many. When he’s not sliding the KSport 350Z in the Formula D Professional Drift circuit, he is a driving instructor at the Bondurant School of High Performance Driving. And when he’s not doing that, he is usually daunting a bleach blond wig, polyester suit, cowboy hat, and making sure all his friends are always having a great time.
