PAPADAKIS RACING

Veteran racer, Formula DRIFT team owner/manager at Papadakis Racing, and skilled engineer, Stephan Papadakis is a motorsports legend. He established an unbeatable reputation in Import Drag Racing, building the first front-wheel-drive, tube-chassis Honda Civic drag car. He then set records with the world’s fastest FWD and RWD Hondas, the first Import driver to break the 6sec barrier and the first to exceed 180mph. Stephan was the 1999 SEMA Import Racer of the Year, 2000 NIRA Pro Comp Champion, 2001 NIRA Pro FWD Champion and IDRC Outlaw Class Champion.

Papadakis Racing joined Formula DRIFT in 2004, winning the PRO Championship title in 2007 and 2008 with Tanner Foust, and then with Aasbo at the wheel of the 1200hp Toyota GR Supra. Papadakis-prepped vehicles continue to place in the top three throughout every season, and Stephan has been voted Formula DRIFT Team Manager of the Year countless times.

Stephan utilizes ENEOS lubricants in all his personal projects, including the 1972 Toyota Celica featured in the 2024 ENEOS SEMA Show booth and his 1995 Toyota MK4 Supra restoration, which made multiple appearances with ENEOS.
