Travis Reeder, Formula Drift Pro driver, 2018 Formula Drift Pro2 Champion, and FD Pro Rookie have a lot of buzz around him and his team. That is mainly due to Travis and Napoleon Motorsports building the first PRO ELECTRIC drift car. However, in the first two events of the season they have not been able to run the car and had to go to their backup car, Travis’s 240sx from Pro2. There has been a ton of controversy around the EL1 Camaro. Should the car be allowed to run, is it safe, too boring for a sport like drifting are only a few of the shots thrown at them.
Travis joins us on the podcast to talk about how the car works, drifts, how he linked up with Napoleon Motorsports and so much more!
