SHORT BIOGRAPHY: I’ve always been into motor sports. Dirt bikes, paddock cars and karts etc. 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. After that I decided it was time to venture into something I had always been passionate about Drifting!
Drifting as a sport has come a long way in a short time, the quality of the cars and the commitment of the drivers and teams has risen to a whole new level this past year. With that said, Whittaker Motorsport has a huge year planned for 2009!
For all the fans and supporters we have a new retail clothing range coming out which will consist of Team Sponsor T-shirts, Girls V-neck fitting T-shirts, Pre-Fitted WMsprt /WSR Graffiti Drift Caps and Limited Edition Gold Series Numbered T-shirts.
We also have some of the best Drift footage you will see available on High Quality DVD; it includes incar and external camera views, practice, battles and burnouts of me competing on the tracks around NZ.

I’m once again competing in both the D1NZ & Still Vodka Drift Championships for 2009, so if you are at the track, come down and see us, grab a free poster and have a chat..
