The unique eye catching film style of the 18 year old director captures the spirit, passion and determination of Team New Zealand, as well as further highlighting the skills and professionalism of New Zealand Motorsport on a global scale.
Team New Zealand featured an impressive lineup of top D1NZ drivers including Red Bull Pro Athlete Mad Mike in his flame spitting 4-Rotor RX7, Fanga Dan in the Juice Polishes V8 Commodore, 3x D1NZ Champion Gaz Whiter in the Tectaloy Nissan S14, Bardahl & NAC backed Daynom Templeman in his RX7, Cole Armstrong in the popular V Energy Drink R34 Skyline and of course the man who flew the kiwi flag with pride, Curt Whittaker in the Rolling Addiction R34 Skyline.
