Alex Pfeiffer started drifting in the early 90s on the island of Oahu, HI.  Back then he was already an avid fan of Option Video and Japanese drifting and would emulate what he watched on the now infamous mountain road Tantalus in Hawaii.

In this episode we try to figure out if Alex Pfeiffer is the very first American to drift.  We talk about his roots and what it was like growing up in Hawaii, his big move to the mainland and how it helped him improve his drifting skill, what it was like drifting the RS-R S2000 while being Manabu Orido's teammate, and how he changed the game when he became a judge for Formula Drift.

We drink, laugh and shed a tear in this episode all in the name of this thing that we love - drifting.

Make sure to listen to this one, as it marks the beginning of the end of this podcast's first season by discussing drifting in Hawaii.  We have 2 more episodes left and they will be dedicated to Hawaii and how it's underappreciated for what it's done for drifting in the USA.
