Local truck dealer Heavy Trucks have provided heavy trucks for the competition, said Dave Boyce CEO NZ Trucking Association

The Road Transport Industry is really looking forward to putting their professional drivers up against each other to test skill and knowledge to find the best in the country. Throughout the process there has be a lot of learning and this can only lead to safer and better drivers.
