Robbie has been drifting professionally since 1998. While not driving sideways, he manages the Car Care Center in Tokyo, Japan. Robbie is currently the 18th seed in the Formula D series, which is no small accompishment given that he was driving the Falken 180SX (when it was running). Robbie's trademark has become his clean, crowd arousing drifts. He offered to sell his beloved AE86 to purchase a left-hand drive car so that he can practice drifting while at home in Japan. For some reason, I don't think the word "hardcore" does this man justice.
