CA I think I've seen this guy somewhere...

Hey RX7Club!



My name is Aaron Conklin out of Benicia, CA
I've been drifting for a while now, you can find a brief driving profile here:
http://www.lucky-aura.com/acdrift

I have had my 1987 RX-7 since 2005. It was originally my commuter from school and back, but it is now my Pro Am drift car! I'm looking for sponsorships as well as advice from the experienced mechanics on this forum. We've already hit a a few bumps with the car mechanically so I hope you all can help me keep the car running strong.

Thanks! I still work in progress, but I'm trying my best.

I forgot the put up a few action shots.



I plan on doing a bit of body work and we're working on more horsepower also. Though the most obvious decision would to be swapping in a 13B-T.

I've actually been meaning to stop by. God only knows why I've been procrastinating so long... I probably won't make it yet again this week because I have to take my friend to SFO. Next week though! I'll be there.

@dude - I used a GoPro. The camera came with suction cups, etc.

@h3ntai - Here is a photo of it in 2006, red indeed...
