Dirt bikes, 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! I have just finished a new purpose built drift car from ground up for the 2010 season ( Nissan Skyline R34) so make sure to come and check it out, or click on our video page to view our latest video clips.
