For the first time ever, D1NZ both feilds drifts into Invercargill. Three days of tyre smoke, screaming engines, and the nation’s top drifters battling at the world’s southernmost FIA-approved circuit – Teretonga Park. History starts here.
For over 23 years, D1NZ has thrilled fans nationwide with world-class drifting – but we’ve never made it this far south with the Pro and Pro-Sport fields.
This November, the championship heads to Teretonga Park, the world’s southernmost FIA-approved motor racing circuit, and the proud home of the Southland Sports Car Club.
Expect high-rev battles, tyre smoke, and all the adrenaline-pumping action D1NZ is known for – right here in Invercargill.
