Kyle Mohan enters his fifth season of Formula Drift competition
with a new look and new tires, thanks to new sponsor Nexen Performance
Tires. Packing more power than ever, he will drive an improved version of
the Mazda RX-8 that he debuted in 2009. The car was thoroughly developed
throughout the winter by Kyle Mohan Racing and Mazdatrix to make it a force
on the Formula Drift circuit. Mohan has been involved in drifting since it
first hit these shores - first in an FB Mazda RX-7 at Drift Days and the
RS*R Drift Festival, before teaming up JIC and Grenade to compete in Nissan
S13s. Mohan then built his now-famous FC Mazda RX-7, which took him to
several top-16s, a Final Four at the Streets of Long Beach, and an
appearance at the Red Bull Drifting World Championships in 2008. When he is
not drifting his RX-8, he is driving his RX-7 in the Redline Time Attack
championship. During the day, he is the head engine builder at Mazdatrix.
Customers from around the globe send engines to Mazdatrix, looking for the
power and reliability that Mohan demonstrates from the rotary engines in his
Mazdas. Mohan lives in Long Beach, California. In his downtime, Mohan enjoys
playing his guitar, or wheeling his RX-7 out to a weekly drift event at
Adams Motorsports Park.
