MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE RACING | KENDALL SAMUEL AND GRANT WALKER

Text & photos by Jesuel Rivera

Listen, there’s something special going on with this team. Ima tell ya. 

Maybe it’s my first time recognizing the character of a solid team dynamic. 

Maybe it’s their race cars being meant for business, brilliantly practical, and home engineered. 

Maybe it’s the fact that when you take away the lap times, the helmets, and the wrenches… these are genuinely good people. 

Whatever it is – they provide an incredible pit presence, track time, in shop progression and everywhere in between. If you make it to ANY #GRIDLIFE Track Battle event, you’ll undoubtedly recognize these two beasts and the team called Mechanical Advantage. 

Kendall Samuel

The team originated with a solo Kendall Samuel from Colorado. He started his list of Subarus in order to 1-up his older brother who was into AWD Audis. It wasn’t long for him to find his own hype behind a fast flat-4. To put a timeline on it… Kendall bought his first WRX in late highschool, which sold at almost twice the price after a number of cosmetic mods. He was then able to purchase an STI, only to get t-boned 2 months later. With insurance paying Blue Book Value, he was able to find another STI with a Cosworth motor. Like any 19 year old, the throttle-heavy Kendall cracked a piston and ended up swapping a built turbo, flat-4. The setup proved reliable, giving Kendall 50,000 miles, and all the drag racing & road racing he could handle. But his interest in rebuilding the Cosworth motor resurfaced. 

Kendall sold his last STI to get an Impreza coupe from Virginia. Using his acquired swap knowledge & newly earned mechanical engineering degree, Kendall was able to rebuild the Cosworth & swap it into the Impreza coupe. His first true build got him a 10.97 quarter-mile time. Damn! 

Finishing college, Kendall was offered a position with Honda of America’s quality division in Dayton Ohio. Being in a professional automotive field, Kendall was able to connect with like-minded enthusiasts… one of them being Grant Walker. He has since moved on to Borg Warner.

Grant Walker

Grant Walker has an insane background in Formula SAE with his alma mater, the University of Cincinnati. The series hosts events where students can compete in formula performance style vehicles that they design, fabricate, and develop from the ground up. 

Grant was the suspension team lead & driver for the 2016 season… helping to get them a Top-15 international placement. After college, Grant wanted to continue his hobby/sickness in motorsports, and saw his opportunity after accepting an offer to work at… none other than Honda of America. Grant’s interest in getting back-on-track rekindled after hearing about Kendall and his homebuilt Impreza dubbed, The Slumdog. 

GRIDLIFE

#GRIDLIFE offers the perfect platform for anyone from a weekend warrior… to a full-on professional. Kendall took on the 2017 season in his Subaru with the help of his fellow Honda of America engineers. Grant Walker, Nick Gary, and Nick Mitchell provided pit support and learned as much as they could trackside. As the team had taken shape, the Slumdog finished 3rd Overall in Unlimited, and 1st in Unlimited AWD. As the season closed, Grant realized he was infected big time. 

After returning from PRI in November 2017, Grant hit the ground running. He tore down his ‘95 NA Miata, swapped in a Honda K24, paired it with a BMW E46 ZF 5-Speed, installed a Cadillac CTS limited-slip differential, and added a Spec Miata roll cage. By March 2018, the N/A was ready to compete alongside the Slumdog Subaru. And Mechanical Advantage Racing seemed to have gone from a single member/driver – to a team! The pace hasn’t let up since. 

With two more builds growing from within the team, Mechanical Advantage aims to compete in most of the #GRIDLIFE Track Battle classes. Kendall Samuel will continue to race in the unlimited category with his Subaru Slumdog. Grant Walker and his Miata will compete in the Track Modified class. Taylor Steck in her 350z, will compete in Street Modified… alongside David Ottobre and his S13. Each driver continues to build their own small team while helping one another stay on track… both figuratively & literally. 

MOD NOTES (Subaru)

Slumdog runs a heavily modified EJ257 engine with a Borg Warner EFR 8474 turbo. It’s got a Callies stoker 83mm 2.7L crank, with JE (Callies spec) stroker pistons, & BC 280 cams. But that’s not all: It’s also got an XShift sequential transmission with LSD front/rear/&center, and an ACT 6-puck Xtreme clutch with their Prolite flywheel.

Lawrence debuts in FD PRO with back-up car

Posted on by Konig Gfx

FORMULA DRIFT LONG BEACH, CA – ROUND 1 | August 8th and 9th

What’s up everybody! Kevin here with my recap of the Formula D season opener at Longbeach, CA.

After losing the engine in my S14.3 on the dyno just a few days before leaving to Long Beach, The team and I revised our plans and decided to run Enjuku Racing’s R32 Demo car as this was our quickest option to have a car ready for Long Beach. We scrambled to bring the R32 up to tech regulations for Formula D competition as well as swapped over my last seasons nitrous kit and Garrett 3582 turbo to try and get some more power out of the R32. After a last minute trip to Tampa, FL to see my tuner Martin from RS-Enthalpy we were table to turn the R32s power up to 685whp from 505whp and off we went to make it out to Long Beach. After the 2.5 days travel filled with traffic stops and loosing parts of the roof of my trailer we finally arrived to the venue and loaded in for tech inspection, we passed tech with flying colors and then we were ready for practice and qualifying the next day.

FRIDAY

Friday morning after warming up the car in the pits I headed off to get in line to take my first practice pass. However after entering the burn out box and doing a few circles I heard a pop and realized my left rear axle had snapped. I scrambled back to our pits where the team confirmed the axle was broken and we got to work swapping it out. Unfortunately the spares we brought were a different length and would not just swap right in, we had to swap the outter stub that broke from the new axle to the old one in order to get the car back out to make a pass. This took a bit of time but we finally got it done and back out. After waiting in line again I was up next for a pass, this time no pop in the burn out box so I pulled up to the start line. Off I went and entered into the first turn of the tight course, I probably went into this pass with way more trust than I should have but I did alright for the first turn. Coming into the second one I pass the touch and go and then realize im going in too deep towards the Judges wall. I pitched more angle and pinned the car to try and dig out away from the turn but the impact was still going to happen. I tagged the rear wall which in return pulled the front of the car into it as well. I got the car back to the pits for evaluation of the damage and was suprised to find that other than all the cosmetics of the car the only suspension
part to really take the hit was the front lower control arm. We swapped that out as well as hammered out the chassis as best we could to keep the fenders from rubbing the rear tire and I rushed to try and get in a pass before qualifying. Unfortunately practice was called when I was about 3 positions back from making a pass so I would move on to qualifying with out making a full complete pass.

Pulling up to the line to take my first qualifying lap also my first ever full pass at long beach it felt as if there was a building sitting on my chest. I did my best to put all that aside and was able to take a very conservative pass and not hit any walls and earn a score of a 68. Knowing that was good enough to put me in the show I did what I could on my second pass to tidy it up a bit which worked and netted me a score of a 71. After the qualifying meeting I was informed I would battle Chris Forsberg in the Top 32.

SATURDAY

I was able to get in 6 complete passes before my battle with Chris, all of which I dialed in a bit better than the run before. Chris being the higher point qualifier was up to lead first. Light goes out and off we go, I was excited to see that on the run up I was able to keep up with him in our R32 demo car on the straight. We enter into the first corner and thats exactly when I realized he had way more grip in his car when in drift that what I had. We did take a bunch out in hopes to prevent another axle breaking. He is able to gain some distance on me and I do everything I can to keep up. Coming into the final transition I reach over to down shift from 4th to 3rd and the car accidentally shifts into 5th causing me to bogg out and loose more distance from Chris going into the final turn. Now my turn to lead I knew Chris had the advantage on me going into this half of the battle so my best defense was to put down the best lead lap I could in hopes that Chris would make a big mistake behind me resulting in us getting a OMT call. We leave the line and I give this pass my all, I honestly would say it was the most comfortable / cleanest pass I have had all weekend. I was hoping for Chris to make a mistake on this pass behind me but hearing his car not far behind me I knew that he wouldn’t let me have the win that easy. He kept right up with me and followed my line just as the judges asked. Chris would be awarded the win and this would wrap up my first time driving Long Beach as well as my Pro1 debut in Formula D.

I want to extend a huge thank you to my Team, Sponsors, and Family for all their absolutely amazing support and keeping me going and not letting me give up on this event. Everything it seemed was going against us to not make it out to Long Beach but we never gave up and I was able to get out there, Qualify, and run my First Pro 1 battle with our Demo car turned Pro1 legal car with that was done with in under a weeks time. Again thank you all so very much for everything I cant wait to get the S14 back together for the next one.

2018 Konig Formula Drift Drivers

Posted on by Konig Gfx

Getting to know 2018 Konig Supported Formula Drift Drivers

The 2018 Formula Drift Season is in full effect with the Streets of Long Beach just behind us and Orlando approaching this weekend. We thought we’d take a few minutes and give you a quick rundown of our 2018 FD drivers and telling you what wheels and fitment they’re running. Check them out, show them love, and remember to follow their journey this season here! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kevin Lawrence – Formula Drift (RB30DET powered Nissan S14.3)

Kevin Lawrence hails from Florida and has been drifting Nissan cars as long as we can remember. He took home the 2015 Three Palms Drift Championship and has never looked back in his drifting career. His reliable RB30DET powered Nissan 240sx helped him drift his way to the Pro 2 championship last season. An amazing victory at Texas Motor Speedway with all the pressure in the world on his shoulders allowed him to become Pro 2 championship by the thinnest margin in Formula Drift history of just two points.

Kevin Lawrence and the Enjuku Racing team are clear favorites for the 2018 Formula Drift Rookie of the Year award in the pro series. Kevin also is heavily involved in the drifting community in Florida and tours the country with his demo R32 Nissan Skyline to events like Hyperfest in Virginia.

Kevin is running Konig Dekagram in 17×9 et 25mm front and 18×9.5 et 25 rear. The Konig Dekagram is Flow Formed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Matt Vankirk (SR20DET powered Nissan 240sx)

Matt VanKirk comes to you from the Northwest where the drift scene is strong! He really has become known for his aggressive driving style and his 3rd place, podium finish in Formula Drift Pro 2 last year. This year he is now stepping it up a notch as he competes in Formula Drift Pro! We’re excited to watch MVK try and earn that FD Rookie of the Year award! 

Matt is running Konig Hypergrams in 18×9.5 et 25mm front and 18×10.5 et 25 rear in Race Bronze. The Konig Hypergram is Flow Formed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ryan Litteral – Formula Drift & Pro 2 (LS3 powered Nissan 350z)

Ryan Litteral is a driver famous for having a drift vehicle with top class style over the years. Ryan comes from Southern California and has been drifting for 12 years now. He earned his license with his black S14 in the Just Drift series back in 2013. His last appearance in Pro 2 was in 2016 where he finished a solid 6th  place running his own program.

For the 2018 season he has teamed up with KoruWorks in Marietta, Georgia to campaign an LS3 powered Nissan 350z. The team will attend all four rounds that have a Pro/Pro 2 weekend and they will do double duty trying to sweep the Formula Drift weekend with a victory at both levels. You can also catch his YouTube series called IT’S LITT! Documenting his demo car 240sx build.

Ryan is running Konig Ampliform in 18×9 et 15mm front and 18×10 et 20mm rear in DARK METALLIC GRAPHITE. The Konig Ampliform is Flow Formed.

 

Geoff Donati

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Geoff Donati – Formula Drift Pro 2 (LS3 powered Nissan 240sx)

Geoff Donati hails from a small town in Ohio and once he discovered drifting he wasted no time heading out to the track to give it a shot. His first full season of Pro-Am soon followed at the Midwest Drift Union in 2016 and where he fell just short of earning a license when the year ended by one point! Geoff went right back to MDU for the 2017 season and managed to win almost every round that year and became champion of the series with ease.

Geoff Donati dominates his competitors with consistency and some have even compared him to a young Chris Forsberg. He seems incapable of making a mistake at times behind the wheel and looks to carry that ice in the veins approach into Pro 2 for 2018

Geoff is running Konig Hypergrams in 18×9.5 et 25mm front and 17×8 et 40mm rear. The Konig Hypergram is Flow Formed.

 

Travis Reeder Konig Ultraform

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Travis Reeder – Formula Drift Pro 2 (LS3 powered Nissan 240sx)

Travis Reeder is a drifter from the Pacific Northwest who cut his teeth in the Evergreen Drift series. Travis dominated the 2016 season in the Evergreen Drift Pro Am easily becoming the champion of this regional Pro Am series. He made his Pro 2 debut last season and managed to earn Rookie of the Year for his amazing efforts behind the wheel in his 240sx. In fact, he was basically announced champion at Texas Motor Speedway and could only mathematically lose if Kevin Lawrence qualified first and then won the event. Sadly, that happened and he finished the season in second place by the smallest margin in Formula Drift history after some amazing drifting all year.

Travis Reeder caught the world’s attention when he won Road Atlanta last year and took a commanding early lead in the Pro 2 championship. He has committed to the Pro 2 season again for 2018 and is determined to win the championship at all costs.

Travis is running Konig Ultraforms in 17×9 et 25mm front and 18×9 et 25mm rear. The Konig Ultraforms is Flow Formed.

 

Kelsey Rowlings Konig Hypergram

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kelsey Rowlings (5.0L Coyote powered Nissan 240sx)

Kelsey Rowlings earned her Pro 2 license in the Three Palms Drift series down in Florida and became the first-ever female to earn a Pro 2 license through the Pro-Am drift promotion ladder. Kelsey was one of the few drifters who traveled in the younger part of her career and she managed to also compete in the Streetwise Drift, Lone Star Drift, and XDC series before stepping into the Pro 2 stage.

Kelsey’s engine package makes her one of the most unique car setups on grid in 2018. Instead of the traditional LS-engine setup, her team has picked the 5.0L engine out of a new Mustang GT to power her 240sx. Kelsey returns to the Pro 2 series in 2018 looking to outperform last season.

Kelsey is running Konig Hypergrams in 17×9 et 25mm front and 18×9.5 et 25mm rear. The Konig Hypergram is Flow Formed.

 

Garrett Denton Konig Dekagram

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Garrett Denton (2JZ powered Nissan 240sx)

Garrett Denton is one of the most unique racers in the Pro 2 field today. At the age of 14, Garrett was the youngest driver to win a sanctioned NASCAR event race in North America. His love of driving and racing started as early as 5 years old and he has been behind the wheel ever since. Garrett also came from the Midwest Drift Union series where he finished in second place in 2017 and took plans to run in the Pro 2 series.

His Pro 2 campaign involves a crew full of University of Northwest Ohio graduates where he also attended college earning an in dual Associates Degree in High-Performance Motorsports Technology and Automotive Technology. Garrett will be taking to the Pro 2 circuit with a 2JZ powered Nissan 240sx with support from Koruworks to help him make a run for the championship.  

Garrett is running Konig Dekagram in 17×9 et 25mm front and 18×9.5 et 25mm rear. The Konig Dekagram is Flow Formed.

 

Alec Robbins Konig Hypergram

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Alec Robbins (LS powered Nissan 350z)

Alec Robbins is a unique individual who famously ran a slammed pickup truck drift build with an LSX engine in the Pro-Am ranks. Alec Robbins saw success as the 2016 Midwest Drift Union champion and made his rookie year debut in 2017 in the Koruworks 350z for some Pro 2 rounds.

Looking forward to the 2018 Pro 2 season, Alec Robbins has built his own 350z with a LS engine making 550/560 to the wheels. This should be a great setup to keep up with the competition at all four rounds of the Formula Drift Pro 2 series.

Alec is running Konig Hypergrams in 17×9 et 25mm front and 18×9.5 et 25 rear in RED OPAL. The Konig Hypergram is Flow Formed.

While Donovan Brockway has opted to take the 2018 season off he is still a part of the Konig Wheels Drift team. His 2018 season off is allowing him to put a new “BeastMW” together that starts with an F22 BMW 2-series chassis that will have a full HGK carbon/Kevlar widebody kit and one big RHS 427 race engine. We know Donovan will be missed on the paddock this year but we cannot wait to follow his build progress and see it debut on Konig Wheels in the 2019 Pro 2 season.

Donovan is currently running Konig Rennforms in 18×8 et 35mm front and 18×9 et 35 rear on his 1000hp e30. The Konig Rennforms is Flow Formed.

Hard Times Racing hit the track at GRIDLIFE Mid-Ohio!

HARD-TIMES RACING AT GRIDLIFE TRACK BATTLE ROUND 1

2018 GRIDLIFE MID-OHIO | APR 14TH & 15TH

RACEDAY 

“The first event each year is always the Hardest…”

After a 7 hour drive to Mid-Ohio, we unloaded all the cars and gear, made sure all the cars got through tech inspection, then we set up camp and got prepared for the next morning. Everyone knew we would have one, maybe two session to lay down a respectable time before the rain came, much easier said than done, the team was basically shaking down their new cars, Lester had never driven this track so he really had his work cut out for him. Sitting in the Silvia I had multiple concerns with over-heating due to the new front mount and ducting, I wasn’t sure if the wheels and tires would rub under load, was the grip going to be there? had I done everything right to have a safe car? I would soon find out the answers to all these questions, and as team captain my thoughts were about all my teammates and that they were going through the same thought process. As we started our out lap Mark led the team followed by Mike and Les as I brought up the rear. My goal was to load up the car a little bit more every lap, lap two Mike and Lester gave me the point by and I bumped the car up to about 65%,  constantly checking the gauges, trying to put heat in the tires and listening for odd sounds or tire rubbing. About 3 laps in I felt a wave of relief fall over me, the car was working! A quick look at the solo showed that I had cut a 146.08 not a fast time but all things considered it had felt like I had just won! And with the gas gauge showing I was on fumes I pitted with a huge smile on my face! parked the car and anxiously awaited for my teammates to finish up and come back to the pits, One by one they started rolling in, it was hugs and high fives all around! I was one proud man. After the track high subsided a bit we started looking at times. We knew our street FWD guys we looking good and boy were we right! after one session Lester was sitting in first place with a time of 156.55 followed closely by Mike with a 159.34 putting hard times in 1st and 2nd. All eyes would turn back to the radar as the rain was going to hit sooner than later. During the cold track lunch break the rain started to fall. I was on slicks and knew that my day was over, Mike had also decided to leave his car in the pits for the rest of the day. Rain is a funny thing at race tracks, after it had poured for hours it was apparent the the dry times would stand for everyone that weekend, Leaving hard times on top of street FWD. The end of Saturday would see conditions improve from soaking wet and standing water to a damp track, and with this street FWD would see the late entry of a brand new civic type R, a car known in this class as a ringer car, Anthony Cuthbert would end up bumping Mike and Lester down to 2nd and 3rd. The sun set and some hard earned beers were shared as we all swapped war stories. But once again all eyes were glued to the radar. It was pretty clear that Sunday would see more rain and with more rain we knew the times from Saturday would stand. Lester and Mark would go out and practice their wet driving skills as the rest of the team watched. Then it would be time to collect some hardware and hit the road back to Chicago.

All in all it was a great weekend and even though we only had four of the seven Hard Times car out the tone had been set. Gridlife Mid-West will go down in history for us as it will be the first time that all 7 cars hit the track together, as always there is a ton of work to get done between now and then. I have said it before and I’ll say it again. You gotta be there to win! 

Hard TImes Racing drivers list for Round 2 is as follows 

Lester-Street FWD -Integra

KONIG DEKAGRAM

  • Konig Dekagram

    Dekagram

  • Every year we go to the drawing board to try and develop wheels that are both functional and representative of the car culture we all love.  This year, at the 2017 SEMA show in Las Vegas, one of the new wheels we introduced was the Konig Dekagram.  It’s been exciting to hear all of the positive feedback of the Dekagram.  The Dekagram should be available for pre-orders early 2018 and begin shipping around March of 2018!
  • The Dekagram is developed using our specialized Flow Forming process which produces an end result of a lighter and stronger wheel.  These properties make it an ideal choice for the rigors of the track and even the harsh nature of streets.

They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. But sometimes when you’re looking for that perfect wheel for your vehicle those thousand words are just not enough. We’ve all been there, the endless search for the perfect wheel. Right? Sometimes you’re just left with that “If I could just see the wheel from a different angle” dilemma. We’re going to try and help solve that dilemma. We have now started developing wheel videos that show off some of the most popular Konig wheels from multiple angles.

These videos are available on each respective wheel page by clicking on the media tab at the top of each wheel page. You can also view them all below in this video playlist we have put together.
