It feels like forever since I last posted! My bad!

Anyways, here’s a little update. We’re starting to cut everything unnecessary on the car. Trying to lose as much weight as possible while also making the car more “service-able”. It’s definitely nice to build a track car with purpose behind it. Ditching multicolored interior for a more visually appealing workspace. Competitive drifting is so fast paced that you need to be able to look at your car and visually see cues to tell you that you’re good to go.

Also, starting to plan ahead in the build. When every single part is meticulously thought through, things start to look aesthetically pleasing. Being organized is key 👌🏼

Moments like this make everything I'm doing worth it. I met this dude and his daughter at a drift demo at Kerns Country Raceway. They were there super early during practice trying to catch a glimpse of what was to come. Sometimes as a driver, public figure, athlete... or whatever else you wanna call yourself, we lose track of the people around us and those we my be influencing. To anyone listening, and to anyone willing to listen; dreams come true. Never in my life did I think I'd be driving a race car and signing my name on someone's shirt. Chase what it is you want. Make it happen. Do it with friends. Live a little, make memories, NEVER GIVE UP.

Here's where we're at

It's May. Round 2 is 3 weekends away. My birthday is next weekend. We have a track event this Saturday. And we're starting a YouTube series officially. There's so many things going on, and despite loving every single minute of it, I am reminded that regardless how far I've come and how much I've grown as a driver/privateer nothing would have been possible without the support from these incredible companies I am privileged to work with and the countless hours of work my friends and family have put into my racing program. So very often, I've seen drifters rise into the ranks of social media fame and completely lose sight of the partnerships and friendships we've made along the way. My heart is to never take advantage of anyone who's supported me. That's just isn't me. I literally am nothing without you all. So with that said, I'd like to say thank you. Thank you for believing in me, for trusting me with what you've given me, and for your continued support. You have no idea what it means to chase this dream and know you all have my back. To more drifting; CHEERS

Senpai Motorworks training day. Teach both my brother and our friends how to drift. It's crazy what a completely stock E36 can do when you put it in the hands of a competent driver. You don't need a gnarly angle kit, a V8, 500hp... learn with what you have and make adjustments to your car to work with your driving style. That red e36 has a cut muffler, $80 coilovers, 17" rims, no rear window, no windshield, completely gutted... it's literally the perfect missile/practice car while we make the Competition car nice and professional. YOU CANT SAY YOU HAVE A MISSILE CAR IF YOU DONT HAVE A PRO CAR.
