Motorsport Career

Daniel is a dedicated and passionate motorsport driver who started his career at 12 years of age. This career started by racing ministocks, It moved onto Stock car racing. The early years of racing in stock cars helped lay the foundation for Daniel's driving skills, honing their ability to navigate tight corners and maintain control at high speeds. But as their love for motorsport grew, so did his desire to explore new and more technical driving styles. This drive led them to the world of drifting, and in 2023 they made the bold decision to compete in the D1NZ Drift Championship, New Zealand's premier drifting series after doing backyard drift days for 6 years.
