Behind The Wheel Podcast: – EP09- Kevin Lawrence


Listen Later

Formula Drift PRO driver, Kevin Lawrence has been a Konig sponsored driver for 4 years now. In that time Kevin and the Enjuku Racing team have become like family to us. We asked Kevin if he wanted to come on the podcast and he was down!

In this first part of his podcast (Part 1 of 5) Kevin talks about how he got into drifting, his love for AE86s, making his Formula Drift Pro debut at FD Long Beach (#FDLB), what caused them to have to make that debut last minute with Enjuku Racing’s Demo / back up vehicle ( R32 Skyline ) and of course we kick things off with a 10 question quickfire!

We will be releasing another part of this podcast everyday until conclusion. We will update this page below!
