If you’re a hardcore car enthusiast, then you must know professional racing driver, stunt driver, and television host Tanner Foust. If not, then you’re missing half of your life!

Being the Formula Drift champion in 2007 and 2008 in his Nissan 350Z, Tanner shifted to a specially modified rear-wheel-drive Scion tC in 2009. That makes us all curious on how this Scion tC can drift.

The Scion tC is originally a front-wheel-drive vehicle. But since it was originally based on the Toyota Avensis platform, which comes in all-wheel-drive, it wasn’t entirely impossible to convert it into a rear-wheel-drive tire smoking drift machine.

Built by the legendary Stephan Papadakis of Papadakis Racing, Tanner’s car is powered by a powerful TRD V8 from a NASCAR racer.

Watch the video as Stephan goes into detail about the ins and outs of Tanner’s awesome custom drift machine:
