Age |
45 |
Location |
Towcester. Born and grew up in Silverstone Village |
Job |
I am a Production Director for a small and growing electronics company |
Favourite Formula and why? |
Too many really. Formula Vee is what single seater racing is all about and I enjoy endurance racing such as Britcar. As for watching on TV is concerned NASCAR and Moto GP/BSB/WSB (NOT F1!). Who can forget Eurocars round Mallory - exciting or what! |
Race driving experience |
Years ago I did most of a course with Jim Russell at Silverstone - No talent or funds to race (and a degree to do)! |
How long and history with 750MC |
I started marshalling at 750 events in 1977 (with the Silverstone Incident Team) and have been clerking since 1999 |
Other clubs you have worked for |
I have done a variety of things for a variety of clubs over the years. In addition to the 750MC I am Clerk of the Course for the Fun Cup, Britcar (for James Tucker) and HSCC (including the Silverstone Classic and Walter Hayes Trophy). |
Favourite circuit and why |
It has to be Silverstone as I have been going there all my life. In the UK Brands Indy Circuit is always worth the trip. I have been lucky enough to have visited some of the worlds greatest circuits in a variety of capacities - Pau, Texas Motor Speedway (for NASCAR, only 250,000 spectators!), Zhuhai, Changwon, Spa and probably the most amazing of all Macau (in the old Teddy Yip years) |
|
Best Meeting you have worked at and why |
Probably the first year I visited Macau (as an Observer), a combination of the world's greatest street circuit and visiting the Far East for the first time. This years the highlight (so far) was Clerking the Britcar 4 hour evening race at Spa |
Outside interests |
I am trying to learn to fly a flex wing Microlight, this is taking ages due to our wonderful weather. I enjoy visiting interesting Countries particularly the Far East. |
Why you just lurve Saxmax |
It is a great privilege to be involved with such a special series, the enthusiasm of the competitors takes a lot to beat. I hope to see many of these competitors over the years progress through the sport (whoever makes it first into NASCAR or Indy Racing please remember to send me some tickets!). |
