Viktoria Silk, a rising artist and longtime supporter of the RC drift scene, has shown genuine appreciation for the community, regularly attending events and championing the culture. Following the release of her music video “Display,” which featured RC drift cars, the DARC Mag team sat down with her to explore the connection between her music and motorsports.

When the beat for “Display” was created, the artist behind it already had a vision. “Drift phonk was my inspiration. I’d lose hours to YouTube mixes with incredible drift footage. I knew the video had to reflect that world or the track wouldn’t feel complete.”

While filming with full-size drift cars wasn’t realistic, the idea didn’t stall. “I remembered seeing RC drift cars at Fuel Fest in Dallas. I found the community on Facebook, reached out, and they welcomed me in. They helped bring the whole vision to life.”

RC cars didn’t just fill a gap, they brought their own energy. “The tone and pace of the music matched perfectly. The footage was so good up close, it wasn’t obvious they were 1:10 scale. That twist made it more fun.”

After the editorial, we caught up with Waren Johnson of Rack City RC Drift. His crew helped bring Viktoria Silk’s “Display” music video to life with an RC drift demo that blended sound, smoke, and style. “When Viktoria reached out, it was an easy yes,” said Johnson. “We’re always down to show RC drift to new people, and a music video felt like the perfect crossover. It was fun, creative, and exactly the kind of thing Rack City lives for.”
He added, “The team loved being part of the production and seeing how it all came together. If Viktoria ever needs us again, all she has to do is call.”
The shoot included fog machines, LED lighting, and full setups. “It was insanely creative. I’d love to feature RC drifting again. The response was huge.”
Inspired, the artist now wants to create a song using real drift sounds. “Tires, engines, crowds—everything. And now that I think of it, the RC sounds might be even more fun to sample.”

The passion for car culture runs deep. “My Dad always had modded sports cars and took me to car shows. I’ve been to Formula D events and still follow drifting online. Chelsea DeNofa and Piotr Więcek are my favorites.”

As the artist continues to grow their platform, RC drifting remains close. “If I could create any RC car body, I would choose a Honda S2000, with a “The Last Unicorn” themed livery, which is one of my favorite stories, with glittery whites, lavenders, and blues, with an image of Lady Amalthea.”
“I want people to see how unique this culture is. Display was my favorite project because of the RCs. And honestly, it’s going to be tough to top it without doing it again—bigger. I am so excited to see the community grow and to see further editions of the magazine!”
