Local Ride: Kyle Zimmer’s R32 Drift Machine.

Reppin’ the streets of Regina is Kyle Zimmer’s GTS-T Type M Skyline.  It’s a car that a lot of people have probably seen and  most likely have heard.  His car is  what a true drift enthusiast’s car would look like rocking the aerokit and low stance like none other in the Queen City.

Kyle tears it up on the track but obviously babies the car on our “oh-so-great” roads.  How else would this lip, which sits maybe two inches off the ground, still be on the car?

The last time I saw Kyle’s car it was in Saskatoon for Speedtech’s Drift Invitational at Auto Clearing Speedway.  Mr. Zimmer showed huge progress and skill attacking the banks for the first time.

Kyle bought the Skyline back in April and  I am glad he did.  He was telling me stories of how it was winter driven before he purchased it! Some people don’t realize that as soon as you lower your car in Regina it means you need a winter beater to trash around in.  It makes me cry when I see lowered cars plowing their way down snow packed streets.  Thankfully, Kyle is on the same page as me.

I’m sorry but I had to post this pic, but it is probably one of my favorite decals ever!

This last picture is for Kyle, and I just wish I had a car I could rock this sticker on… 🙁

Again, thanks for looking and keep an eye out for more features such as this.
