MadMatt Racing - Team Profile
​
When it comes to off-road racing, adventure, and a little bit of chaos, MadMatt Racing is full throttle, no brakes, and absolutely unstoppable!
With over 90,000 YouTube subscribers and a massive online following across social media, Matt has built a name for himself as one of Australia’s most entertaining off-road presenters — but at heart, he’s still the same bloke who loves nothing more than rubbing shoulders with fans, sharing a yarn around the pits, and going flat-out on race day.
​
MadMatt’s Ultra4 journey kicked off at the very first Ultra4 Australia race, where the dust, rocks, and roaring V8s hooked him for life. He scored his first taste of competition as a Navi for Rafdan Racing, and from that moment on, there was no turning back. About six years ago, fate (and a good deal) landed him his own race car, and the real adventure began.
​
Since then, MadMatt has:
-
Raced his heart out across some of the toughest tracks in Australia
-
Collected a few shiny trophies along the way
-
Completely rebuilt his car more times than he can count (seriously, there’s barely an original bolt left)
-
And proven that when things break, you just fix it, laugh it off, and send it harder next time!
​
For Matt, Ultra4 isn’t just about racing — it’s about the community. The mateships, the stories, the shared blood, sweat, and busted diffs. Whether he’s wheeling into a gnarly rock section or swapping banter in the paddock, he thrives on being part of something bigger than himself.
​
Work commitments might slow his racing schedule down, but make no mistake — MadMatt Racing isn’t going anywhere. If there’s a race on, there’s a good chance you’ll spot Matt somewhere out there, helmet on, grin wide, and dust flying.
​
Because for MadMatt, it’s simple:
Go big. Break stuff. Fix it. Have a laugh. And do it all again.
​
Welcome to MadMatt Racing — where every race is an adventure, every battle leaves a story, and the throttle is always wide open.
