Garrett turbocharger by Adelaide Turbo Services! Best advice and prices in town, thanks guys! Drift Hi everyone! I love to drift my Gemini whenever I can.

I have been competing in mid-level competitions in South Australia since mid 2010, in my bright orange Gemini. I built, modify and maintain the car entirely in my back yard, including an engine rebuild late last year. It currently runs a 56rwkw G180Z, 32/36 weber carburettor, mild cam and extractors. Springs are presently Lovells, with an adjustable Whiteline rear swaybar and a locked diff. My fir

st priority is to have fun, and to give the best I can - but you won't find me sporting a huge ego - we're all out there to have fun, so come say hi if you see me in the pits, or come out for a tandem if you're entering! I'm also a huge enthusiast of the classic Isuzus that so many JDM enthusiasts don't know about - starting with the Bellett and Florian, to the 117 Coupe, the Japanese ZZ series of Gemini, and the Piazza.

After plenty of sim training, Ebony gets out on track for her first drift day! Check out how she went in this new video. I'm now (finally) shooting in 4K too, so there's that! [LINK IN COMMENTS]

NEW VIDEO IS OUT - ***LINK IN THE COMMENTS*** because FB algorithms. Last one of the NA days, featuring some decent tandems, the weirdest car I've ever followed, and battle tips for low-power. I reckon this one came out alright!

I'll admit to being a little proud of the last few rounds of the Drifting SA state series this year! The old Smurf was a little worse for the wear but held in there for me and led to some epic battles. Shout out to Pat for great runs and great vibes.

Holy crap! What a shot from of me running the wall at Locktoberfest! One of these runs I chipped the tail light 😅

Big entry comp! Thank you for this epic shot 😱 I think the next run I got a *lot* closer to the wall 😂

Thank you all SO much for voting me Driver's Driver! Most of the grid deserved this award, and I'm blown away and truly humbled that you legends voted for me. The form-up chats, laughs, humility and good sportsmanship, pumping each other up, the high fives after an epic tandem, telling each other "nah you totally won that!" after every run - you guys make this competition series what it is. I can't get enough of driving with you all. Here's to more of the good stuff next year!

Taking suggestions on decent looking 17" wheels, for someone who loves 15s and 80's vibes 😩
Epic shot as always by .chamberlain 📸
Locktoberfest was an absolute riot, with the goods as always!
