Description

The crew sits down with Dan Savage and Ryan Downey of Drift Nirvana, who made the long drive from Virginia to hang out and talk all things East Coast drifting. The conversation dives deep into the history of Drifters of December—one of the most legendary grassroots drift events on the East Coast—along with the early days of Summit Point Motorsports Park, 20 years of drifting evolution, and what makes the community so special.

From old-school parking lot events and wild Summit Point stories to safety, rules, and the future of tracks like Englishtown Raceway Park, this episode is packed with nostalgia, behind-the-scenes insight, and a ton of laughs. Whether you’re a veteran of the scene or just getting into drifting, this one’s a must-listen.
