Submitted by rontastic on Fri, 2010-08-27 13:08

For our fans in the land down under, Fast Fours Magazine of Australia just did a feature on Team Need for Speed's Mad Mike Whiddett and his BadBul RX-8.  In the five page article, you get to learn a lot of cool facts not only about the BadBul, but about Mad Mike himself.  

Did you know that since the age of 13, Mike has owned 28 different rotary powered vehicles?  To get the full specs on Mad Mike's Team Need for Speed RX-8 and to read the rest of the article, make sure to pick up the latest issue of Fast Fours.  If you can get your hands on it. :)

Here's a short excerpt from the feature:

"Mad Mike got his nickname doing crazy stunts on a 50cc peewee bike before getting into drifting in 2006.  in 2007, he entered the New Zealand Drift Series and placed fourth overall.  It was the first year he took hi FD overseas competing in the D1GP championship in California.  In 2008, he stepped it up a notch and represented new Zealand at the Formula Drift event in Singapore. 

The RX-8 represents another evolution in Mad Mike's drifting prowess and in his career.  Mad Mike's latest ride doesn't replace the FD - instead it allows him to compete even more overseas."
