Driver Spotlight: Justin "The Cheetah" Medina

Justin “The Cheetah” Medina has made quite a name for himself in drifting in a relatively short span of time. From his start on a rainy day at Kil-kare in 2020 behind the wheel of his E46 sedan to the DISL podium in his Honda S2000 in 2022 and third overall in the 2024 DISL rankings, Justin has packed a ton of shredding into just a few seasons.

Team Smooth Brain Spotlight: Have Red Car, Will Shred

Team Smooth Brain and their small fleet of red cars have managed to keep drifting simple and fun. They’re able to build off of, and learn from, each other and the other shredders they drive with. They’re no slouches when it comes to competition, as evidenced by their individual and team success in DISL, but don’t stress over it.

Driver Spotlight: Cash Staub

Driver Spotlight: Cash Staub

Four seasons ago, a 15-year-old and his dad showed up at one of our clinics with a cool, V8-swapped BMW E28. We weren’t even sure if he was going to be allowed to drive, but they got it figured out and he set off to learn the basics. Today, that same kid is first in this season’s Drift Indy Street League rankings and has been proving his mettle with pro drivers on the Drift Appalachia touges. 

Cash Staub, now 18 and a high school graduate, lives and breathes drifting.
