The Goodest Cast - Hangout with the Drift Community Palmer Sanderson

Landin Williams AKA Squeeze.86 is one of the coolest dudes in drifting. His unique style and dedication to pulling off insane visuals either with his car builds or using a computer is unrivaled. We talk about how he got his start as a creative and how his passion turned into a job in the gaming industry. As usual for the Goodest Cast we also get into his future, his dreams, and what drives him to push his driving along with his visuals. From a Super Street print article to some of the coolest videos on the planet Landin has done some very impressive things all with his love for the hachi roku. His team “Meal Team” is a squad of corollas who are all pushing their driving constantly and is one of the few teams of ae86 drivers that still regularly goes to events in the US.

Geoff Pitts was responsible for running Thunder Drift which Formula Drift pro licensed quite a few Northern California drivers including a few of my Animal Style teammates. He ran events, announced events, and now he’s a race director for a prestigious vintage motorsports group. It’s always cool to see where drifting takes people next. Geoff Pitts also was Ryan Kado’s spotter in FD along with shooting for Life Blasters which was a sort of alt Speedhunters. In an absence of drifting Events in Northern California Geoff stepped up and made it happen for us. Geoff has been around a lot of cool stuff over the years and we try to talk about as much as we can in the time we have.

Matt Coffman is a pure driver. He lives and breathes drifting. We talk about his experience in Rally racing and his origins. We talk about how he was able to get involved in the sport at such a high level so early and some of the pitfalls of being young in Formula Drift. Matt is an interesting character and his drifting IQ is through the roof. It was great to sit down with him in his shop and really get into the details. Three hours is not enough to cover everything but we sure tried! We also released this on his birthday so be sure to wish him a happy birthday!

Ryan Kado is one of the biggest drifting nerds I know. When I met him he was already competing in Formula Drift in his first 350z and I wasn’t even driving yet. Even before being friends and then teammates on Drift Team Animal Style he was super humble and down to earth. He’s always been there for the raw love of the sport. Ryan is one of the most skilled drivers I’ve ever driven with and was always ahead of the curve with car setup and technique. He also has been doing Sim drifting and RC drifting for well over a decade. Ryan has always been a pioneer and when he needed to take a break, the community felt it. His break from driving was about five years and now he’s back with some new perspective and enjoying driving in a whole new light. We talked about why he needed to take a break and of course his origins and other cool stuff most of us didn’t know about Ryan Kado.

Aaron also tries to approach these situations with a positive mindset and it seems to be working well for him. We also talk about Hyperdrive and how all that went down. Of course we talk about his origins into cars including his Honda and Motorcycle days.
