When did you start drifting and what got you into drifting?
I started about 2 ½ years ago, me and my mates heard about it and just started doing it. Then when events started happening at collie we were there to practice.

Where did you start practicing? Track – Street…
Until the tracks were available for drifting, we had to find other places to practice.

What kind of car did you start in/ why did you choose that car?
I started with an S13 Silvia. I didn’t really choose this car although it is well suited, I just happened to have it at the time I started drifting. I’m now driving the A31 Nissan Cefiro.

What competitions have you competed in? Best Placing’s?
I’ve competed in quite a few, some of them are at
AIR – Full Lock Round 3 (1st Place), Drift Battle Round 3.
Wakefield Park – Drift Battle Round 1.
Oran Park – Drift Battle Round 2.
A few smaller comps at Wanneroo(Barbagallo) Raceway (1st Place) and the collie motorplex.

Most admired person in the sport?
I don’t have a particular driver that I look up to, but the D1 drivers are very impressive.
