Northland's drifting king Gaz Whiter will be wanting to make it three from three when he competes in MadMike's Summerbash drifting competition at Hampton Downs today.
Whiter won last year's one-off national event to book a place in the inaugural Red Bull Drift Shifters in Liverpool last year. Whitler won that event which featured the top 12 drivers from around the world.
"Definitely, people will be after us but the Summerbash is a completely different style of event," Whiter said.
Today's event will feature 32 drivers who made it through qualifying yesterday. Drivers face each other head-to-head and whoever is judged to have won will progress to the next round until a winner is found.
"A lot of guys will use it to get their cars ready after rebuilding them after last season before next season in January," he said.
