Drift, build, hustle, repeat. There's nothing about creating race cars or shredding tires that Steve ‘Baggsy’ Biagioni doesn't know that isn't worth knowing. From scoring podiums against the best in the world, to running a business, or teaching A-Listers to run the wall; Baggsy knows what’s up.
Born in Upminster, Essex, Baggsy's journey from racing karts with his Dad to becoming a leading athlete in the global drifting scene is a true testament to his dedication, skill, and passion for all things motorsports. Over a decade and a half of competitive drifting has not only solidified Baggsy's reputation as a formidable driver, but also as a entertainer; captivating audiences at prestigious events like the 24-hours of Nurburgring, MotoGP, FIA World Rallycross Championship, Gymkhana GRiD Series, Goodwood Festival of Speed, NASCAR, Monza Rally Show, and more.
His victory at the 2014 King of Europe Superfinal, clinching the €10,000 prize, is an early highlight in a career filled with podium finishes across the world - including the King of Europe Drift Pro Series, Drift Allstars Pro Series, Irish Drift Championship, British Drift Championship, and most recently the Drift Masters GP.
2019, in particular, marked a significant chapter for Baggsy, mixing competition with huge media success. While successfully campaigning the Drift Masters European Championship, Baggsy also engaged fans worldwide with his viral video sequel, “Return To Driftenberg” - which has since amassed a staggering 5.8 million views.
Jumping back into action after the global COVID-19 pandemic, Baggsy's commitment to the sport shone through again in 2021, with a packed schedule of competitive events and smoke show demonstrations. Not only did Baggsy rebuild his now trademark V8 Nissan GT-R, but he also created the world’s first R35 GT-R-powered pickup truck - the Nissan Navara-R. Unveiled to the world at the Isle of Man TT in 2022, the Navara-R once again showcased his company's unrivaled innovation in vehicle fabrication ability.
Beyond his driving prowess, Baggsy has shared his skills with notable personalities, teaching the art of drifting to ex-Top Gear and Grand Tour presenter Richard Hammond, as well as A-list actor Idris Elba. His entrepreneurial spirit shines through his operation of his own workshop, SB Motorsport, where his team undertakes all custom builds. This includes his world-famous supercharged 1000bhp Liberty Walk Nissan GT-R, the innovative Navara-R pickup, and the latest addition, a 2JZ-powered Toyota GT86, showcasing his relentless pursuit to push the boundaries of automotive engineering and performance.
Steve ‘Baggsy’ Biagioni not only continues to entertain fans worldwide with his epic driving style but also inspires through his innovative creations, solidifying his legacy in the drifting world and beyond.
