Danny Oda - Technician
I started working on cars full time at Hypersports in my native state of Hawaii in 1998.  We mainly worked on Honda/Acura's doing custom turbo kits and roll cages for drag cars.  In 2003 I moved to California and started working at XS Engineering for Eric Hsu.  From there I moved on to Design Craft working as a fabricator and doing track support for several different teams in Formula Drift.  I also spend some time working for AEM doing track support and in a new car dealership.  I enjoy doing custom fabrication for car and motorcycles.  In my free time I like to go surfing and spend time with my family.
