Type of Motorsport Circuit Racing

First Year of Competition First race was October 2004 but 2005 was my first full year of racing

Why did you start? After my better half was quite seriously ill, I decided that life was too short not to have a go! After that, I was well and truly bitten by the bug.

Previous Championships/ Competitions
2005 - 2008 AVO Ginetta Championship
2008 Ginetta Club Championship
2008 Porsche Carrera Cup
2009 BWRDC Gold Star Nominee

Best Race / Drive and why? Snetterton 2008 when I had two 4th place finishes and particularly the second race when I had a big battle with the guy in 3rd place.

Worst Race / Drive and why? Rockingham 2005 because I was literally ¼ of a lap from my best finish of that year - having gone from 22nd to 7th in one lap - and had to stop due to an oil leak.

Favourite Circuit/Venue Castle Coombe, Brands Hatch & Snetterton

Types of cars competed / owned Ginetta G20, Porsche GT3, Audi S3, Renaultsport Clio 197 Cup, 1967 Fiat 500

Best car driven / owned Lotus Exige - and the Porsche, of course!

Future/Current Championships Britcar & Porsche Carrera Cup

Current Car Ginetta G20

Current Sponsors Various!

Other plans for this year/next year To do a full season in Porsche Carrera Cup along with various other races in the Ginetta Championship and move into competing in some endurance racing. Ultimate goal is to race in the 24 Hour Le Mans race.
