First Year of Competition 2002 in Junior Rotax Max Karts
Why did you start? Ever since the age of 3 I've been mad on cars, by the age of nine I wanted to be a racing driver. After convincing my parents I started.
Previous Championships/ Competitions Junior Rotax Max - Camberley Kart Club - 2nd . Starts of tomorrow - 13th. Formula Jedi - 4th, 3rd.
Previous Achievements First Kart meeting - won my class and got driver of the day. 4th and 3rd in Formula Jedi.
Best Race / Drive and why? 2005 - Oulton Park, Formula Jedi. Had to start last because of a problem in qualifying. Went from last to 2nd in the first 3 laps, catching the leader, then my driveshaft snapped.
Worst Race / Drive and why? October 2005 - running at SPA with no oil in the car - sounded dreadful, but fortunately a: finished under the safety car b: didn't harm the engine
Favourite Circuit/Venue Brands Hatch

Funny Stories My biggest fan/best friend Sophie came to support me at a meeting, but forgetting all her sleeping gear. We had to snuggle up together, with my duvet in the back of the trailer. It caused a bit of gossip round the paddock.
