ABOUT THE DRIVER

BEHIND THE WHEEL

Gaz Whiter is one of New Zealand's most accomplished and recognisable drift drivers, with a motorsport career spanning more than two decades.

A four-time D1NZ Pro Champion, Gaz has established himself as a formidable competitor both at home and internationally, earning a reputation for his aggressive driving style, precision and ability to deliver under pressure.

Among his career highlights is his victory at the 2018 Red Bull Drift Shifters in Liverpool, England, where he took on some of the world's best drift drivers in one of the sport's most unique international events.

A long-standing member of the Fenix Radiators lineup, Gaz has played an important role in showcasing Fenix cooling products in demanding motorsport environments.

Behind the wheel of his Fenix-backed Nissan Silvia S15, powered by a supercharged 6.8L Texas Speed V8 producing 600 kW at the wheels, Gaz continues to demonstrate the performance required to compete at the highest levels of drifting.

With four national championship titles and international success to his name, Gaz remains an influential figure in New Zealand motorsport and a proud representative of Fenix Radiators.
