What got you into drifting?

JDM Option Videos. Was the coolest thing I had ever seen (next to boobs, of course). The cars were all so dope. After watching a video I had to get into it. Turns out back then no one knew what it was. So I was one of the first, if not the first, guy around to do it. Back then we had parking lots and mountain roads late at night. Then myself and a few others created SD DRIFT back in 2005 as we wanted to grow the sport. Today I still head up SDDRIFT.

What else do you do?

Hunt, spearfish, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, off-road.

What got you into drifting?

What got me into drifting was a host of things, but mostly inspired by watching old YouTube videos, movies like Tokyo Drift, and what set the final nail in the coffin: my best friend gave me a ride-along at the Thunderdome in his S13 hatch. The next year I bought a convertible E36 and began building and learning.
