40 years of pro racing and 35 years of teaching in motorsport have given me the tools to get the best out of a driver and their car. Track day or race day. Having coached drivers from Formula One and down I have seen it all ! Let me show you that using me as your coach is a far more effective way to “improve performance”, than spending money on the latest “go faster” part.

I also have a “rookie to racer” program especially designed for the absolute beginner. I can be hired for track days, amateur and professional race events and will ride and drive with you at events that allow this.
