EVENT: Cody’s D1NZ 2013 Round Two
It’s been far too long since I last got out amongst some drifting, over half a year in fact.

Gatebil, as ever, is the go-to event of the year. 50 000 car-crazed people from all over the world join together to make the biggest and baddest car event on this side of the hemisphere.
