Teenager motorsport phenom Brooklyn Horan has been identified as the driver in a double-fatality crash during the Arcadia Road Rallysprint event at Paparoa on Sunday.

Horan, 15, and his 35-year-old co-driver were killed in a single-car incident shortly before 2pm. Social media tributes have confirmed Horan was behind the wheel, when the accident occurred.

"It is with heavy heart that today we hard the absolutely devastating news that Brooklyn passed away doing the very thing we grew to love together as families," Hodgson Motorsport posted on Facebook.

"It's times like these that you remember that the sport we chose comes with the highest of highs and the lowest of lows.

"Brooklyn, you were an amazing, kind, loving kid and that hadn't changed years later, when we crossed paths again back at off-roading last year. The cheeky smile was still the same, you had just grown a weeee bit taller.

"You will be missed by so many."
