Driven by an Undying Longing to Be Better, One Man and His Machine Have Found a Way to Run Rings Around Every Other Build on the Block.

Ryan Tuerck, professional drift machine mastermind and official Formula DRIFT series mainstay has his work cut out for him. While the pilot of a 2JZ-powered Toyota 86 that finished 9th overall in ‘16, a constant drive to succeed gnaws at the New Hampshire-native like a ravenous beast, however, part of Ryan Tuerck knows that he’s still ahead of the pack in a multitude of ways.

THE RISE OF RYAN

Since a tender age, Ryan has been obsessed by anything with wheels, and upon realizing how much fun being airborne truly was, an infatuation with BMX and motocross began to form. By the age of nine, his father had already bought him his first dirt bike, and by the time he was ten, racing motocross had become a weekly ritual, an infatuation that would eventually lead him through a decade of high-flying adventures. By 20, the young prodigy was growing tiresome of bikes and needed a fresh fix. So like any true adrenaline junkie, Ryan didn’t kick his addiction, he just switched-up his drug of choice.

Since Tuerck already had a nurtured interest in all things automobiles, all it took was one wild ride in the passenger seat of a buddy’s Fox Body Mustang, and the proverbial toggle switch had been flipped. After a hellacious ride filled with donuts, burnouts, and half-assed drifts, Ryan was hooked. And upon returning home, he and his brother formed a pact and pooled their money. The prize? A POS ‘91 Mustang 5.0.
