Tetsuya Hibino (日比野哲也, Hibino Tetsuya) (born 10 April 1974, Aichi) is a Japanese professional drifting driver, currently competing in the D1 Grand Prix series for SunRise and Aion. Like many of the drivers in the D1 Grand Prix, he is the owner of his own tuning shop called SunRise, and works on his car himself. Before starting in D1GP, he was part of a team called, "Dropout Racing". He is quite a popular driver as he is one of the best drivers of the Toyota AE86 chassis in the D1GP today. He began competing in the D1GP in the sixth round in 2002, though he did not get any recognition until round 3 of 2004 when out of nowhere he defeated many well known names to take second place, and first exhibited his jumping drift which took the crowd and judges by storm.
