With only two rounds left in the 2018 Formula Drift season, the list of racers of who can clinch the championship is thinning. The seventh round of the season will bring the competitors to the Texas Motor Speedway in the outskirts of Dallas, where James Deane and Fredric Aasbo will compete for supremacy. At the end of Round 6 in St. Louis, Aasbo won his second event of the season. Aasbo previously took the top spot at the season opener at Long Beach, and he's been hovering around the top spot of the 2018 championship after taking third place at Round 2 in Orlando and second place at Round 3 at Road Atlanta.
