Highlights from Round 5 of the Cody's D1NZ National Drifting Championship Series from the exclusive Ruakaka street course in Whangarei, New Zealand.
For the first time since 2009 the D1NZ Series returned to the streets of Northland, home to the infamous Team Driftcorp who have 6 D1NZ Championships to their name and a rich history with New Zealand Drifting. As such, the local fans swarmed at the opportunity to meet their favorite drivers including 2006 Drift King Fanga Dan, current 3x defending champion Gaz Whiter, and new young gun Robee Nelson.
This was the penultimate round, the Top 5 Championship contenders were all visibly nervous and reluctant to talk about points and the title chase, most if not all had their mind set on winning the weekend and it reflected in some of the closest Top16 battles of the season, the Grand Final at Hampton downs is sure to be a spectacular finale!
In practice plenty of carnage had accumulated in pitlane, most notably 2 of the main title contenders, Cole Armstrong suffering 2 gearbox failures and Curt Whittaker, the points leader, blowing an engine just before qualifying with a fist sized hole through the 2JZ power-plant of his newly sponsored Team Dilusi R34 Skyline. Curt would step into a borrowed car (D1Pro-Am Cam Vernon) at an attempt to hold on to as many points as possible ahead of the final round.
While championship dramas were the talk of pitlane, Mad Mike had his head down and focused - qualifying first with hometown favorite Fanga Dan in second, with young gun Darren Benjamin in third, further proving himself in the D1-Pro class.
The Top16 got underway with Curt Whittaker paired up along side Niko Reid in one of the most entertaining battles of the day, the pair were so closely matched that OMT was called not once, twice, but 3 times until the wildchild in the Luxury Sports S15 progressed through over Whittaker who drove his best in an under-powered Pro-Am car.
With gearbox troubles still hampering the V Energy R34, Cole Armstrong and the team would rebuild a new gearbox during the lunchbreak just in time for the Top16, only to spin against Darren Benjamin in the chase, Benjamin progressing through Top8 falling victim to a now hard charging Niko Reid who was right at home with his street driving style despite another OMT.
The Top 4 would eventually feature Fanga Dan, Gaz Whiter, Mad Mike and Niko Reid, a collection of popular drivers sure to rub panels for the modest Whangarei crowd who braved the rain throughout the day.
A controversial battle between Mad Mike and Gaz Whiter went OMT, while Fanga Dan progressed over Niko Reid for a spot in the final. Gaz fell to Mike during the OMT, regardless of any controversy Mad Mike would continue on into the final which was set to be a classic battle of friendly rivals.
The hometown hero, Fanga Dan in the Castrol Edge Commodore was out with nothing to loose and was chasing down the top step of the podium in front of a vocal home crowd. Mad Mike however was a man on a mission, determined to join the ranks as a D1NZ Champion.
The MadBull RX7 would scream and spit flames on the lead run opening up a small gap from Fanga Dan who would struggle ever so slightly with the right transmission setup in the big V8. In true D1NZ fashion the battle would go OMT and despite an even more refined chase and lead run from both drivers it was almost a carbon copy with Mike opening the gap just enough to seal the win over Fanga Dan!
Gaz Whiter would finish 3rd with Niko Reid claming his best result of his debut D1-Pro season in 4th - Mad Mike celebrated in style with his right foot out the window of the Red Bull RX7 during his victory burnout.
A fascinating round in the heart of Northland that is sure to return, a round that now see's Fanga Dan sit 4th on the points, a dark horse for the title - if anyone is out to spoil the party Dan's wild lock to lock driving style could bring change to the Championship chase into Hampton Downs for the Grand Final. Mad Mike however is seriously determined to earn his stripes and the respect that comes with it. With more than 5 drivers in with a shot, anything can happen!!

Cody's D1NZ Drifting Championship Series - Round 4 Highlights - Mt Smart Stadium 2011

Highlights from Round 4 of the Cody's D1NZ National Drifting Championship Series from the custom built night circuit at Mt Smart Stadium, Auckland, New Zealand.
Round 4 of the D1NZ is New Zealand's only exclusive Night Drifting event with the Top16 battles starting just after sunset. The Mt Smart circuit is tight and technical with surface changes and entry speeds around 120kmph along a wall of concrete barriers. The amphitheatre-like setup provides good spectator views and sets the stage for a rare night time battle for the D1NZ Championship title.
Qualifying was held late afternoon on day 2 of the event, the track had accumulated plenty of rubber from the practice sessions as well as heat from the midday sun for fast wall-scraping entries that pleased the crowd that began to line the fences for the Top32.
Mad Mike Whiddett would take top qualifier at the end of the session, a back to back achievement for the Red Bull pro athlete after qualifying first at the same event last year. With the new sealed entry and lessons learned from last season the Mad Bull RX7 was a deadly contender and top pick for the final.
The Top32 would feature only 2 battles, Daynom Templeman taking a win from Mark Burling while Sky Zhao in the Dspec S15 progressed through over Bruce Tannock in the Achillies S13.
The Top16 got underway just on nightfall and fans would be set for a night of upsets and championship changing results as it soon became clear some of New Zealand's top drivers underestimated the talents of the Pro-Class rookies.
The first major upset of the night would go to the young Darren Benjamin in the Matt's Computer Services C35 Laurel, defeating Red Bull giant and championship leader Mad Mike Whiddett during an intensely fought rerun which would eventually see Whiddett make a mistake on his chase through turn 2, Darren celebrating with an impromptu burnout on the front straight.
Driftcorp drivers Fanga Dan in the Castrol Edge Holden Commodore and Gaz Whiter in the Tectaloy Nissan S14 would suffer an impressive assault from Bradley Lauder who pushed his way through to the final with his own preemptive victory skid, both he and Darren Benjamin would take 2nd and 3rd respectively, putting major dents in many drivers' championship hopes. Could this year be the year of the rookie?
Championship contender Cole Armstrong in the V Energy Skyline would rub 4 doors with Jason Sellers in the Supercharged Batteries C33 Laurel in one of the tightest battles of the night. Armstrong would progress through to the Top4 but battle mechanical dramas in the late stages, struggling to get onto the podium. A Top4 finish however good enough for championship consistency heading into the remaining 2 rounds of the series.
The man of the night however was the 'Knight Rider' himself, Curt Whittaker in the immaculate all-black 2JZ powered R34 Skyline, again performing with distinction despite having no major funding, and the question has to be asked, how many more events does this man need to win before he gets the backing he deserves? The Australasian Drift Champion securing the top step of the podium under an impressive fireworks display that drew the event to a close.

The sequel to the Icon original video: Motorcycle vs. Car Drift Battle - Nick 'Apex' Brocha is back and this time he brought his Empire teammate, Ernie Vigil. The two are mounted on a pair of crackling Triumph Speed Triples - built by Roaring Toyz for the sole purpose of going sideways. Over the last year their quest to find the ultimate drifting playground has led them to the rolling hills of High Plains County. Low traffic, perfect asphalt and endless twisties have kept them busy resurfacing roads with their rear tires for weeks. The only problem is the local authorities have had enough. Enter Police Officer Dan Brockett, the only man with the muscle to keep these two in sight. His 550 horsepower Ford Mustang Cobra was built for speed and he's got a license to use it...
