Who is Mad Mike?

MadMike Whiddett is in partnership with Red Bull as a professional drift car driver. MadMike Whiddett is originally an FMX freak from Auckland who’s been riding moto-x bikes from the age of 6. With many years experience this shows in his awesome aggressive and loose riding style.

MadMike founder of Asphalt Assault, Rotang Klan and owner of CRE8GRAFX usually performs on a Thumpstar Pro125 Pitbike flying off a custom freestyle ramp and has the record for biggest pitbike jump off a full size kicker in N.Z at 60ft, ONLY 10ft SHORT OF THE 250'S!!!

After breaking almost every structural bone in his body he has decided to focus on keeping himself on ground level. Building a full slide spec FD3 RX-7 drifter from ground up and more recently adding to his set up a slide spec RX-8! MadMike has already proven his cars and driver combo have what it takes to mix it up with the BIG BOYS.
