About

Dave is involved in the transport industry operating a fleet of 22 trucks from his family base in Pukekohe. Having watched the very first supertruck race as a teenager it has been on his bucket list ever since. Dave raced dirt track for 7 seasons winning the national and track championship multiple times, then the timing was right to take the step and build his Freightliner Argosy supertruck in 2015.

The first season was very trying with a spectacular crash at Teretonga which he walked away from unscathed. Dave was determined and rebuilt the truck in 9 weeks and made a good comeback taking out several awards that season. The upcoming season will be his 7th.
