Otto Gravens Drifted back onto AutoModified

While keeping close tabs on one of South Africa’s pioneering drifters, we thought it would be great to catch up with Otto Graven again and see what Otto and his team at Monster Mob have been up to.

AM: In our last interview with you the question came about why you had changed from your R33 Skyline to a Nissan 350Z. We notice you have not just mastered the V6, but you decided to get rid of the Nissans V6 motor and replace it with a beefy V8 Corvette C5R motor. …

Calvin from Dragon Customs

So we have been looking to add a new face to the AutoModified’s writing team, a few names were thrown around and we decided to approach Calvin from Dragon Customs in Cape Town. One thing that we loved about Calvin, was that he like us has a dream and is perusing it,  and it seems as if he has come out on top.
