Derek is a perfect representation of what professional drifting is becoming.
Having a very successful team, excellent and innovative marketing, and the insane passion for drifting he will always remain in the spotlight.
Rather he's standing on the podium, gets knocked out early or standing in the booth talking to fans, he always has a positive reflection on the drifting community.
Derek is always looking to help grow the sport of drifting and bring in more fans by giving ride-a-longs to new fans, selling merchandise in the booth or doing demos with the team.
