Motorsport's next success story
A few words from the driver himself:
"I know that I was born to race at the pinnacle of motorsport.
As a kiwi kid it started with anything that I could go fast in or on: two wheels, four wheels, anything with wheels - especially if it had an engine! In my teens, I discovered teamwork and competition; this is the environment in which I thrive. Through experiencing success and joy in road cycling, youth leadership, choir and study, my core values of skill, service and excellence were set… all to be channelled into my deepest passion for speed…
Believe with me, back me, and be part of this epic journey.”
“You could see straightaway that he had some impressive natural ability. James was very good on his gear changes, his braking was smooth, he listened to my instructions, and drove very nice lines. He performed very well in the interview which shows he’s got good ability outside the car which is very important. I’ve watched his progression with interest. He’s very dedicated, he’s very very keen, and is always trying to better himself which are great attributes. I recommend people should get behind the journey, it’s exciting. The thing I like about it is he’s doing it off his own back and he’s passionate. He will give it 100%, so he needs a good backer. I wish him all the best.”
Mike Eady, Owner of Tracktime Driver Academy, who raced cars worldwide since 12 years of age including winning the Nurburgring 24-hour four times, and he is a qualified senior BMW instructor.
