We acquired a sr5 shell from Nik Grieco (las Vegas), 2 weeks before Formula Drift Long Beach. Deconstruction of the original 86 occurred as soon as the damaged car arrived back from long beach.

Team Mechanic Chris Jenneret - KP Race Engineering WA flew down on Saturday April 18 at 5pm. Chris fabbed up a FD spec roll cage at John Thompsons Motorsports garage here in Las Vegas in less than 18 hours. Fully boxed and triangulated.
As Tommy has a full time job, it would have been very difficult to get the car put back together if it wasnt in Las Vegas, due to time restraints and logistics we were unable to utilize our Primary Body shop sponsor http://www.PACbodyworks.com. Shouts out to Ozzy and his staff at Pina Automotive Center!
Nick Irie and Van Vu at Spring Mountain Autobody (http://www.autobodylv.com 5701 Spring Mountain Las Vegas, NV 89146 - (702) 459-3005), had viewed the Gotcha TV Long Beach crash footage can be viewed here, and made concessions for the team to utilize his Facility. Our Friends from Hawaii - Garage Js4kix http://garagejs4kix.com - Gary, Rei, Clayton, and Gino were coming out to visit and drive at Vegasdrift011, instead drove in on 4/21/09 4 days early to lend us their high level talent and expertise.
Gino and Clayton got serious when it came to stripping 20years of grime off the firewall and interior of the shell
