In this thrilling collaboration, Larry Chen joins forces with Penoil for their "Long Maywe Drive" campaign, delving into the exhilarating world of stunt driving. Penoil, a staunch supporter of car culture, aims to celebrate the sheer joy and freedom that driving brings to enthusiasts like us. From NASCAR to Formula Drift, they're there, backing the true petrolheads who push their vehicles to the limit on the racetrack, the streets, and the winding canyons. And in this episode, we have the privilege of getting up close and personal with a remarkable female stunt driver, Zandara Kennedy.

Kennedy, a force to be reckoned with in the world of drifting, not only competes professionally but also performs mind-blowing stunts as a stuntwoman. She's always on fire, fearlessly jumping cars and putting on a spectacular show for both the cameras and the fans. As Larry Chen sits down with her, it's hard not to notice that she's perched on top of her own car, a first for him. But that's just the beginning of the extraordinary journey Kennedy has embarked upon.

Her passion for drifting was ignited by chance, as she stumbled upon the addictive thrill of sliding cars sideways. Starting with a stock KA she imported from LA to Canada, she soon found herself convinced to swap in a 2J engine, which turned out to be a disaster. But from the ashes of that mishap, a phoenix arose in the form of a stock Nissan 350Z. Kennedy's determination to improve led her to explore the world of stunt driving, where she honed her skills and pushed her limits.

But how does stunt driving relate to drifting, you may ask? Well, Kennedy explains that stunt driving requires precision and a deep understanding of traction, which are also essential in drifting. The connection between the two disciplines became evident to her, and she found herself falling deeper in love with cars and the art of driving. Her experience in the stunt world has undoubtedly influenced her drifting career, as she's accustomed to performing under pressure and thriving in high-stakes situations.

So, as Larry Chen and Penoil shine a spotlight on the incredible world of stunt driving, we get a glimpse into the life of Zandara Kennedy, a true trailblazer in the male-dominated world of motorsport. Her journey from accidental drifter to professional competitor and stuntwoman is nothing short of inspiring. And as she continues to push boundaries and break barriers, we can't help but be captivated by her unwavering passion and dedication to her craft. Long may she drive, and may her story inspire others to chase their dreams with the same fearless determination.
