A celebration of Katie’s life will be held on Thursday, 10 July at Heaven Falls, Wainuiomata, starting at 10.30 am.
From Cindy Mendoza: Please bring your racing helmet or pick up a spare from someone and bring it with you to the funeral
We would like to meet a little earlier (approx 10.15am) and plan to do a guard of honour for Katie’s family.
The idea is we will line up either side, raise our helmets to form a tunnel for them to walk through. We will keep our helmets on our lap during the ceremony to show our solidarity and support as a drag racing community

Drag racing-loving teen Katie Iti dies from flu complications

Katie Iti's passion was drag racing and she had completed her first season of racing her own car.8 CommentsComment on Facebook
Givealittle page - let’s help support Katie’s greiving family.
Katie Iti unexpectedly passed away on Saturday 5th July from Influenza type B, at only 15 years old.
She has made a major impact on the NZ Drag Racing Community. The seed was planted when she began backing up HOTBOX, with her dad Shayne as crew chief. From there, the bug bit her, and she wanted more.
Every class, every car, every driver she loved and supported. From a “good luck” in the pits or message, to running one end of the pits to another to pick something up you may have forgotten, she was the first to put up her hand.
She recently got her own Junior Dragster, coined RDHZRD and raced alongside her best friend as “The Clutch Car Girls”.
Before every pass, you could see her “shake the nerves out” by rocking the car back and forth while she was all buckled up. We used to giggle together watching her do this little routine. That’s how you knew she was in the zone.
She completed one season in it before passing away. While she didn’t pick up any event wins, she became infamous in our scene purely for her love and passion for the sport.
Katie was our biggest supporter as Team BF, she was our little sister, we will forever miss her positive attitude, support, and wit. She was one of us. We will now forever be racing in her memory.
We would like to help raise funds for the Iti family to cover funeral costs anything leftover will help go towards bills so they can grieve this horrible loss.
