John Shanahan, father of IDC racers Jack and Connor is well known within drifting as one of the sport's biggest heroes and this clip perfectly depicts that. After contact in a previous race leaves Vasiliauskas with what looks like a bent track rod, John battles to get him race ready before time runs out. Sportsmanship at its very best.

  • John used to race National Autograss, same back then. just a racer through and through and just wants to see the racing continuing. Used to lend spares to people and all sorts to get them back out.
