"Grip the steering wheel of destiny!"

— Drift King's motto

Drift King, also known as DK, is the teacher of Drift Racing at VGHS as well as a friendly rival and later ally of Ted Wong (whom he refers to as "Theodore"). As his name suggests, he is the best Drift racer at VGHS and leads the team, as he presides over the sign-ups in Episode 7.

His heart is in the right place.

Relationships

Ted Wong

DK's relationship with Ted Wong is his most explored relationship in the series. DK refers to Ted as "Theodore", and is the one of the first people to recognize Ted's talent as a Drift Racer. Throughout Season 1, he works to make Ted accept his Drift Racing talent, rather than follow in his father's footsteps. DK is annoyed that Ted is denying his true passion and skill, although he seems not to harbor ill will towards him.

In Season 2, some dimension is shown in their relationship. Ted's failure to do homework annoys DK, although he respect Ted's honesty. He was furious when Ted lost his key to Duchess, although he forgave him when Ted fought it back.

Ki Swan

DK and Ki appear to be on good terms.

Appearances

• Season 1, Episode 4

Trivia

• Because the word 'king' is in his name, the way he speaks is comparable to the language of medieval times, back when monarchs existed. He is a chivalrous person and acts as if life were still in medieval times.
• Because of his car-esque personality, there are car noises whenever he is around. For example, in Season 1, Episode 6, there is a car honk when he winks at Ki Swan and there is a sound of a car doing a burnout, then driving off when he throws the drink at Brian D and leaves.
• Although it is shown in Season 2 that DK is a teacher at the school, there are multiple times throughout Season 1 that imply that he is a student (his presense at Jenny's party, participating in the fight at Signups, his two cronies).
