This my official resignation from any organized form of professional drifting. All things must come to an end. I am at a point in my life where drifting for sponsors is no longer fun or appealing in any way. I am sorry to my followers and fans for my departure but this kind of circus-hobo life only is good for so long.
Will I still drift? Yes.
Will I still compete? Yes.
In a very serious effort to 'Keep Drifting Fun' I am resigning from any scheduled drift events. I'm going back to the way things used to be; When I wanted or when it can be afforded. I realize the desire to run at the top level of the sport. It is a great accomplishment that i am proud to say i have done, but unfortunately sponsor money does not grow on trees, everyone in the drifting industry is bleeding money and to top it all off I feel like drifting in America is extremely politically biased. The people who make drifting non-political know who they are and deserve a pat on the back for fighting a good vs. greed battle. Today in drifting there are more politically charged decisions happening than ever, most of the die hards know it.
I have met great people in my travels and hope to stay in touch with them from now until forever. To drifting fans world wide; now your chance of a ride-along is much better! Keep supporting drifting and please find your local organizations. Go hang out, help out, chase cones and get Involved; you will meet some of the most humble and down to earth people ever here.
I'm still going to post here but it may seem a bit random at times. Stick with me, it will still be an interesting ride. The adrenaline junky in me is only stoking the fire. ;)
Damn straight!
