Drifting Background:I started drifting around 2014 once I realized it was an actual possibility after coming across the old Drift Indy forums. Rolando Alfaro had an entire build post on his black s14 he drove in MDU. Final Bout also popped up around this time and I immediately knew stylish team drifting was what I had to do. With D1GP and option videos on YouTube, Final Bout, and of course Tokyo Drift(lol), I had a bunch of influence to go off of and start crafting my vehicles and driving into what I wanted it to be, flashy, low, fast, and stylish above all.
I suppose I ended up in GP from my persistence to style and driving over the last decade. I have accumulated a couple podiums at street league where I drove the car to and from the track, in true street car fashion. While always putting style first. And I plan to continue that into this more competitive machine Iām building with the JZX90.
Fun Fact(s):I love chocolate milk, and I used to be in a thrash metal band called Behold Eternity.
