Hey guys,

Im pretty embarrassed to say that its my first time on this forum, I haven't had any need to look for parts or figure out car tech in a few years (since I moved to Europe from Chicago). I would like to introduce myself, my Name is Lukas Skersas! Some of you may know of me, I create videos to raise awareness about our beloved sport.
Some call it skidding, some call it Drifting. I call it my life.

My goal is to mold this awesome, extreme, motorsport into a money making business. So motivated, hungry, guys like me can work together with the most talented drivers and create the correct publicity that sells the sport & generates sponsorships for the drivers that deserve it.

Some may despise it, but I love street drifting. I know! Its dangerous, blah blah blah... I agree that todays drift media does bring in some bad ideas for unexperienced drivers to go and fuck around until they kill some one. But just like any sanctioned event you can safely enjoy some good ol' street fun! We all love it, we all want it, we just wont admit to it because it makes us look unprofessional! But if your 10 deep with walkie talkies and closed roads away from house holds, only danger you get is the chance to get caught by the FUZZ!!
(Make sure to check out my Just Life 3 Series... )

I work with guys like James Deane, Martin Richards, Ryan Tuerck, Odi Bakchis, Stewie Bryant, Christer Halvorsen, Johan Halvarsson, Juha Rintanen, Kristaps Bluss, Janis Eglite, Julian Smith, Max Tvardovskiy, Mark Webb, and many many more...
I work towards the success of brand names like Drift Allstars European Series, HGK Motorsports, FINALBOSS, Garage-D, GATEBIL, WISEFAB, Richards Racing, Downside Drifters, FAILCREW, and many more...
And my main motivation for this right now is that I get to travel everywhere and see how drifters express themselves in places like; America, England, Lithuania, Poland, Latvia, Estonia, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Spain, Russia, Belarus, Sweden, Norway, France, Ireland, Scottland, and now in hopes to visit, Asia(JP<3), Africa & UAE.

I can happily say that my proudest projects are; EUROTRIP & Extreme Drift Allstars TV that you can watch on Channels like Motors Tv, BT2, & now airing on Extreme TV.

I have joined finally because I am a car lover, and a former owner of 2 350z's, 4 s13's (240sx & 200sx), LS1 S14, and now I am finally looking for something to cruise in again when Im back home from my travels.
Something low & reliable first, and eventually I will get back into the project status and pick up something for drifting. So if you got anything please let me know. Im on a 10k euro budget :)

I hope everyone here is as nice as back in the day when I used to be part of zilvia.net and JdmChicago.com
Im glad to become part of your community!
Cheers!!!!

Some of my previous cars.



My 1st built SR20DET 398.8 WHP came with an asian girl!


My first S13 after I started building the look :)


The Interior when It was done... Back when DOMO's were hot!!!!


My first DDAY in my first real project! Thats before filming became my hobby.


The Gas Station shot!


Then I brought home this ls1 s14 shell that I bought for 2 grand. Came with full SIKKY swap kit , headers, oilpan, all that...
So i went to the junkyard(USA based) and picked up a block for 200$



At the new home!


It was pretty beat up after 7 long PRO AM seasons at Midwest Drift Union, so I chopped the front off, and had my buddy that i skate with reweld it.


hes a really good welder


Through out the S14 build I had a few missilecars for fun ofcourse. You know, the type that you smash and leave if it doesnt roll :D

The good ol' GOOSE ISLAND, CHICAGO. (My s13's on the left)


We had a lot of friends :) #SundayPhundays got really popular.


Of course thanks to my friends and there help, the build kept on going. Took me about 2 years to slowly build that car and
work as a bartender, go to community college.


Powedercoated breaks, same wheels as the s13.


had a few distractions as well!


The motor looked awesome

And finally test fitting awesome original Equips from a z. 18x9.5 -27 18x11 -39
The car was looking awesome.







Thanks for reading :)
 
DAM.. Welcome Bro, wondered why you hadnt joined up already :p Shall we expect you at Finalboss 2?
 
you sir have won at life with your film making skills. Let me know if you're at DA Estonia this year as i'll be there
 
No Idea why you would cross the pond to euro trash lol. Nice to see a different approach on here. I can safely say your idea of street drifting is much different to a few chavs doing rings in a carpark with burbury hats and sucking on rollies
 
:D what a warm welcome!

It felt nice to sum up my values and who i am for you guys! :)
Little bandanaboy history 101 :D

If Gary decides to hire me to Finalboss, I would ofcourse come, it was a total blast, but if he doesn't, if i dont have an event lined up, I will come anyways :)

I need to come and visit all my UK homies soon :)
 
Very WARM welcome Mr Skersas aka Bandanaboy, always been a fan of your work and hope that someday our Redmist Films make it up to your level of amazeballs
Again welcome from myself at Team Redmist :)
