SHORT BIOGRAPHY: I’ve always been into motorsports. Dirt bikes, paddock cars, Cars or karts. I raced karts for 4 years and placed 4th in the NZ North Island Nationals. Upon moving to Auckland I joined a NZV8 team and was a race mechanic for 5 seasons. From there, I decided it was time to venture into something I had always been passionate about Drifting! With the sponsors and team support, I know I can achieve a top ten finish for the 2008 season.
