Dave McKie (2023-)Top 10 (2025), Round Winner at R3

The Sniper is one of the new generation of Nitro Customs. Originally built with an LS7, it now rocks an LS3 after some first season gremlins. With the truck dialled in, McKie & Son are always in the mix taking out the Levin 4×4 Trial on there way to finish in the Top 10 last season.

Dave McKie & Reece McKie made their debut in 2016 with “The Riddler” a LS2 powered CowperTruck. The father & son combo would be a regular fixture in the Top 10, claiming a spot overall five times between 2017-2022! They would achieve their best result with a win at Round 3 in 2022 before Scott Dickson would purchase the CowperTruck for 2023.
