Matt Coffman: ready for war

27 June 2016

If you’re a keen follower of D1NZ, there’s no doubt that at some point in time you would have tuned into a live-stream viewing of Formula Drift. Between the legendary battles and melodramatic madness on track, Formula D is home to a handful of hidden gems that are quietly nestled between the pits of every event. It was here that I first met 23-year-old Matt Coffman and his highly experienced team. Choosing to match his calm nature with an intimidating 410 Roush Yates V8 Nissan 240SX, Matt is already turning heads in the series with his youthful vibe and aggressive driving style. 

Don’t believe me? Check out this video from Formula Drift round three in Orlando, Florida. Be sure to keep an eye out for Coffman and his team in future publications of NZ Performance Car and throughout the rest of the Formula Drift season.
