What year did you first witness Mike in person? After growing up in the Coromandel Peninsula and moving to Auckland I went to Red Bull Trolley Grand Prix at Auckland Domain, there was a clip of Gen 4 #MADBUL of Mike screaming up the hill and I was in awe, definitely had to listen to more when I got home and Oversteer TV had me sorted bit the clip is no longer up so big sad. Been a fan ever since and collecting alot of things like Merch, Hats and then all the posters from Gen 5 onwards but want to complete the set.

Little Sachs km48 rotary mini bike I’m in the process of building up still needs paint, the seat Reupholstered and a better fuel tank but it sounds real good

Episode 2: Reunion with Mad Mike.

The year after I first met Mike, I met him again at FDJ2016 Ebisu.

I asked Mike if he remembered me. He replied that of course he remembered me. I got him to sign the replicas I had made over the years. I also gave him a MADBUL Gen7.3 replica as a present.

Mike was so happy that he 🥇won 🏆the Ebisu round. This was the beginning of my friendship with Mike.

Thanks Mike and team / partners! I used the code and got my first set of seats and a set for my best friends car.

Now how long before the rotary life ruins these with oil? lol

I’m so amped to see this back in New Zealand for Summer Bash!!! Thanks for bringing kiwi car culture to the world Mike.

Mike getting the champagne showers back at MadMike Summer Bash 2024 after coming up young gun Brayden Mair in the Final.

Brayden has been a regular to MadMikes Drift Force days alongside his family in which his sister and Dad are also in their own drift cars, Brayden has finished his first season of D1NZ Pro placing 15th out of 26 drivers so a true testament to practicing as much as possible especially his welcome to Pro Battle being with Luke Fink.

Didn’t get to meet Mike sadly, wanted a couple of this signed and a pic, just bad timing. But got to see the humbul and got some goodies. Brap.
