Farmer Turned Racing Legend | SPOTLIGHT

We got a chance to sit down with the legendary import drag racer Adam Saruwatari. Since the late 90's and the rise of the import car scene, Adam was one of the pioneers leading the way in developing the 1/4 import drag racing scene. From his class leading RX-7 to the fully built Honda NSX, he made a name for himself as not only going fast but looking good. Little did anyone know, his family has been in the farming business for over 4 generations.

Thank all of you for doing such a great job on the amazing video! The best part was being able to hang with friends!

Saw this man drag race over 30 years ago. The name stuck in my head because he was the best at the time and impacted my import racing life. Learned a lot from you Adam. Thanks.

An absolute legend and a role model 🙌🙌

[@IamPhant0m]

I love listening to this guy. He has the most soothing voice and outlook on life.

[@nigelbent2265]

Adam, you are legendary in my book. Lots of respect for you. Among the greatest inspirations of the import drag scene, for me.

[@jjlwis]

Great video! I grew up reading and watching Adam thru the 90's his automotive career was the stuff of legends. I'm glad you were able to share his story and shed some light on the real Adam.. growing up he seemed like a mystery but now seeing how well spoken he is and how generous his family is it's no wonder his success was so prevalent . thank you for this.

[@asiansneverdie]

jjlwis agreed! as a young teen, seeing an asian on tv and doing awesome stuff showed me that I can also do it. Adam is a down to earth humble guy

[@CMInayoshi]

This is the main reason why we are doing this. People like yourself genuinely are inquisitive about things like this so we thought the story should be shared ^____^

[@Herblenny]

Great to see this video. Big fan in the 90's and hope new guys these days will take your advice!

[@RyanTrinidad]

such a great video of a legend!

[@f430ferrari5]

Great story Adam. Thanks for sharing.

[@tonykarter8830]

Did you like your 300zx? I am a big fan of them and I found it cool that the z was your first import car.

[@dennisonseeto]

Awesome video guy's! He's still my hero today 25 years later! Growing up as one of only a handful of Asian's in my school, he became a role model to show that Asian's did kick ass... In not just the Kung fu/Karate way! Ha ha ha

[@figu26]

Awesome video. Always an Adam fan. True class act.

[@MayeEntertainment]
