The Cars

Built for competition, learning, and seat time

Competition Car

This is Braden’s primary competition car used in Pro-Am and Formula Drift ProSpec competition. Built to meet strict series regulations and endure the demands of national-level drifting, this platform represents the highest level of preparation within the program. 

Chassis: Nissan 240SX S13

Engine: Toyota 2JZ

Transmission: GSR dog box 

Rear End: Winters quick change

Purpose: National Series compliant competition platform 

Demo Car

The demo car is used for ride alongs, demonstrations, partner activations, and fun competition style events. It is built to closely mirror the competition car in setup and driving characteristics, allowing Braden to maintain consistency and familiarity while participating in events such as Tōge sessions, Am Jam competitions, and exhibition events separate from championship focused racing.

Engine: Toyota 2JZ

Drivetrain: GSR dog box with 8.8

Purpose: Demonstration and engagement platform mirroring competition setup 

Seat Time Car

The seat time car is dedicated to repetition, reliability, and driver development. Built to operate consistently in extreme heat or cold, it allows Braden to run extended sessions without interruption. With full windows and a durable platform, this car is designed for continuous laps and efficient tire usage, making it ideal for focused practice and learning.

It is also used for local skill based events that emphasize car control and precision rather than tandem competition. These environments provide additional opportunities to refine technique, consistency, and adaptability behind the wheel.
