In a whirlwind of tire smoke and roaring engines, Larry Chen finds himself at the pinnacle of the drifting world as he's inducted into the prestigious 2025 FD Hall of Fame by Formula Drift. The man behind the lens, not the wheel, Larry's journey from capturing the essence of drifting to being honored alongside the sport's elite drivers is a testament to his unwavering passion. Reflecting on the unexpected accolade, Larry humbly acknowledges the support that flooded in from fans and peers alike, showcasing the tight-knit community that defines the drifting scene.

Unlike the adrenaline-fueled drivers who chase trophies, Larry and his fellow content creators are driven by a different kind of fire - a burning love for the sport that transcends mere recognition. Formula Drift's unique openness to all, from drivers to fans with cameras in hand, sets it apart in the often regimented world of professional racing. Larry's deep-rooted history with Formula Drift, from his early days behind the lens to becoming the official photographer, underscores his integral role in capturing the heart-pounding moments that define the sport.

Through his lens, Larry not only captures the speed and spectacle of drifting but also immerses himself in the art of car photography, a journey that began with a Canon Rebel X-T and led him to the prestigious title of Canon Explorer of Light. His dedication to honing his craft and inspiring others shines through as he shares his knowledge and passion for car photography through workshops and events. As Larry's career intertwines with the roaring engines and screeching tires of Formula Drift, his story stands as a testament to the power of following one's passion and the art of capturing speed, skill, and sheer automotive beauty.
