How did you get interested in Motorsport
When Nigel Mansell left F1 to race in the Indycar series my Grandfather used to come over to watch the races as he didn't have satellite TV. I would sit and watch avidly with him and since the age of 3 have wanted to be an Indycar driver. A dream that just gets stronger every year.

How did you get started
A trip to Autosport International 6 years later introduced me to karting and soon after a test in one at Deavinsons. My first experience on track was a bad one as a fuel leak on the kart left me with burnt legs. However this did not put me off and meant for a good deal on a kart.

BWRDC Junior Champion 2008

My first two years in car racing have been purely about learning as much as possible, racing Front & Rear wheel drive, and as many different cars as possible. However in 2008 I am concentrating purely on one championship. I will be racing for Tockwith Motorsport in a Junior Ginetta on the BTCC package. Huge crowds, live on TV, and in a professionally prepared car, I CAN'T WAIT!!!
